    It's not their fault. The system requires you either to pay the FPN as per the terms, or go to court. The court has discretion, the administrators do not.

    It IS all their fault then, isn't it. I'd not administer the system that way. The discretion lies throughout the whole process, thus saving court time.

    One would think - specifically if the outcome is the same anyway

    It is NOT their fault. They are abiding by the law. They have no discretion. If the law is daft, it is parliaments fault.

    Listen I said that earlier - that it wasn't their fault but they are little hitler's - these administrators.

    So because of the few it IS their fault as they can't control who they employ.
