    3pts? It would have been an instant ban!

    It was my ex's dad, yes he was stupid.

    In an earlier post on this thread someone said that the operators of these Camera Vans were manned by civilian operators.

    Does anyone know how to apply for a job as one of these operators?

    Are they advertised?

    Do they go in house?

    Is there anywhere to apply to?

    lol@ pew pew lasers! However , I think a job like this would be a smart move- its an expanding business, no shortage of work, and would there be a final salary pension with it?

    I seem to remember someone suggesting somewhere that most of these jobs-AFAIK with local casualty reduction partnerships- are filled with ex-police on early retirement packages-perhaps someone else could clarify?

    They have been advertised in the past in my (Derbyshire) area. Looked an interesting option if I recall, but can't help with the details or procedures I'm afraid.:rolleyes:
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed
