The o/p actually makes a valid point about what many members of the public expect from the police and what in turn the police should encourage, the trouble is though the police don't have the resources to deal with something like this and don't want to have anything to do with it. As a PC I can see why the latter has arisen as in this example there is little evidence except on word against another along with the possibility of CCTV which may or may not show anything. Despite that though the o/p's motives for informing the police are positive but he now feels let down due to the expected lack of response.0

He can hardly feel let down due to the lack of response. He posted on the day it happened and was told they would follow it up.0 -

There is no evidence a disqualified driver was driving as the op can't name the driver.
The report will still go onto the database for that vehicle. And this could well have a bearing if the car is stopped for similar offence, and help the officers decide if they should just give the driver a warning, or should take other action.0
