HELP - Wrongly accused of using mobile phone whilst driving!

Lemonade_Pockets

colleague at work was always being pulled over by the police as she is under 5 feet tall. On more than one occasion they crawled all over the car looking for something to nail her on. But this police force did always have a very bad reputation for being racist

I always thought racism was more to with creed or colour? But this sort of racism is far worse. I would hate to be nailed to my car, especially if my feet didn't touch the ground!

Maybe as your imaginary dwarf friend only thought they were crawling all over her car as they looked so big to her ? sounds like Ken and Barbie time. Racist heightists, pah, nothing worse.

A device MUST be in a cradle whilst in the vehicle (having it in your top pocket with a hands free kit is also technically an offence).

This isn't true - it's a commonly held misconception that a phone must be in a cradle.

Modern cars mostly have digital speedos, and rightly or wrongly, the police deem them to be more accurate than the old needle variety, and therefore the 10% margin is no longer granted.

Did you hear this on Jackanory ?

The traffic police have better things to do with their time than target a 'petite' woman driving her car.I am sure they would be more concerned with someones remarks concerning racism especially when they may construe libel on a public forum.
