>>Is it their job to assume he is lying then?
I would think so, yes. If they can. [Edit: I read it as "decide" not "assume"]
With respect to Zippy "I was giving my daughter a lift to work" doesn't sound like a reasonable excuse to me. Even when you add in "she had a puncture".
She's a doctor and is needed at the hospital does make it a reasonable excuse., I think, and the court should be well able to decide that.
If they were polite, then I'm not seeing the problem though I do get the irritation.
If they let him off, does that mean always giving someone a lift to work is ok? What about any other lifts? Doers it depend on the daughter's job? What about if it was a neighbour?
etc. etc.
Isn't that level of decision absolutely part of the courts process, not the Police?
Damned if they do...............
