    I think you're all very cruel, laughing.
    The poor man was only trying to do his job, he was only trying to keep the road clear for the motorists who stick to the rules.

    Is that meant to be a serious comment ??????

    Oh come on Psycho, when was the last time you saw a policeman get out of his vehicle other than when it was in the station yard? Might have wound the window down if the clamper was lucky :p

    The officers were probably saying to each other, "He's not gonna clamp us is he?, nah, I bet he won't!!"

    Yeah, I can see that happening...:D

    Ahhhh now I disagree.

    In my line of work (on the railways) the police can not generally deal with things in that manner, so they HAVE to get out of their donut wagons....

    99 out 100 private security car parks people are vermin!

    They can't get a job at Mcdonalds so this is a last resort.

    As for the comment about the SIA badge I have known people with crb's you could paper a small bathroom with get a badge SIA arent as fussy as they make out else they wouldnt get £250 per licence as people wouldnt risk applying. Basically non sex offenders and haven't been to prison in the last 5 years and you can get a badge is the general rule.

    Only last month I was in poole asda and I don't bother paying these private carpark charges since I sucessfully fought off NCP. My pregnant partner was in the car and the two cars next to us had lads in who had't paid but when he challenged them they gave him a mouth full so he moved on to pregnant women and threatened to ticket my car. When I questioned him he hadn't bothered with the lads cars he said they said they were together??!?, and he was only trying to pay his rent and blah, blah sorry excuse of a man.

    If you have someone with a warrent card anyone with common sense should remove the clamp as they should not have to proof they are operational this is the money grabbing jobs worth you get in this job.

    The police always get out of their cars.
    When they go the chippy, and they leave their cars on yellow lines.
