Police, Above the bloody law!! nobs. Options

[motormad]

I was driving home from a friends unit tonight at approximately 10:45pm and I saw a Police Mitsubishi Pick up (think it was an L200 - the registration plate was 0U10 BGW or BWL or something like that) turn RIGHT out of BP on London Road, which we all know is a NO RIGHT TURN.

Yet I get told off for parking in a car park peacefully with my friends. I have no respect for police officers when they have no respect for the laws they are supposed to uphold!!

There is, and I have been pulled for turning right out of there.

I don't believe a word.

Me neither, nasty vindictive people. That's why Raoul Moat had such a big fan base.

...err yeah right... I take it that 'big fan base' you refer to would include pissartists like wor Gazza.... or are you one of the Facebook muppets that push 'like' at any random crap...

There is a no right turn sign clearly marked on the right hand side of the road.
Where the "NO ENTRY" sign is on the left

It's on private land and is not enforceable. It provides sound advice to motorists and encourages the majority to turn left and use the roundabout but you can't be prosecuted for ignoring it. It has no more meaning than the 'No Entry' signs in the retail park - and I often ignore them as the layout is so daft.... I turn left out of the BP garage anyway but if a police officer tried to enforce he'd be onto a loser if he tried to issue a ticket.

Further down the London Road there is a road, Skylings or something.. no right turn again, clearly displayed. People ignore it. and ignorance is no excuse!

You're referring to Martingale Chase. Ignore this one and you CAN be prosecuted as it's public highway and there will be a traffic order to back it up - which could be used in Court if you decided to fight the charge.
