so you'd want him scared off to attack another girl


It shouldn`t matter if the family are your typical Jeremy Kyle fodder.
Coppers should not be driving at nigh on 100Mph in built up areas with 30Mph speed limits without lights or sirens blaring and i`d go as far to say not even with them blaring.

lets hope the offenders keep there speed down aswell so the police can catch them

Kids,especially 16Yr old young adults do the things that they do,always have and always will.....

thats why parents should shoulder some responsibility when things go wrong

Whether the family are upstanding members of the community or whether their complete and utter ******s it`s not their fault when members of our Law Enforcement break the laws in such a reckless manner themselves.

as far as the officer was concerned at the time he felt he was acting correctly to the information he was given it's not his fault the info was wrong.the practice of fast driving without sirens is accepted as a tactic in certain circumstances which is usually left upto the officer to decide.
in this case it proved to be wrong ,that imo means the training is flawed and should be addressed

What info?



No more ridiculous than calling it an accident that the parents themselves are partially responsible for though eh?

you mentioned before that you have girls ,do you or would you allow you girls when they are 16 to hang about in a park with a load of other kids drinking untill midnight or later if the answer is yes then you should be held partially responsible for any actions they take or consequencies of there actions

EDIT:Sorry about swear filter.I didn`t think somebody who tossed something was a swear word.
