Council and police blasted for hiring 'sniffer wardens'
Council and police blasted for hiring 'sniffer wardens' to smoke out drivers who light up in company cars
Quote:
Drivers who light cigarettes in company cars are being hunted down by 'sniffer wardens' after a council teamed up with police to smoke them out.
Tendring District Council and Essex Police are so eager to catch employees having a puff behind the wheel that they've set up road blocks across the county.
Armed with nothing but a heightened sense of smell, the sharp-nosed enforcers lie in wait, sniffing inside the cars of suspected lawbreakers, and scouring for used ashtrays.

Re: Council and police blasted for hiring 'sniffer wardens'
These ideas are only thought of to make money for themselves.
we'll be that short of money soon we'll be having to put the bodies in the boot so they can't have it.
and we don't want it to come to that.

I have never once seen a smoker in a car use the ashtray, they seem to think that it is someone elses job to pick up the cigarettes they chuck out their windows....filthy habit!

At least dogends are biodegradable, unlike the fast food rubbish everyone else seems to discard.

I agree about the junk food, but the biodegradable excuse is pretty feeble.

Whether you like it or not smoking in a work vehicle is illegal. The Police are there to catch people breaking the law. They don't have a choice as to which laws are enforced, that is the job of the government
