What really grips my sh*t with all this, is that we can't send speeding fines back to Europe for cars speeding in the UK. Just who agreed for this one way policy? We are a soft bloody touch!

There’s a reciprocal arrangement now which was put in place a couple of years ago.
Previously the DVLA wouldn’t hand over information to non U.K. police forces.
They do now

Jesus you are dull. Bet you don’t even speed, or get a bit tipsy at Xmas even.

If people exceed the speed limit, they should be prepared to accept the consequences.

If the OP ignores it, I hope he gets clapped in irons if he goes back to France.

And what has being tipsy at Christmas got to do with anything.

Rouen is a wonderful City...…………. Historic, attractive, what's not to like. More medieval buildings standing in the City centre than any other city in France bar Paris.

The French police are normally quite nice and don't make you wait toulon to get it all sorted.

Sure, the process angers some people but they caen only do their brest.

Amiens, I say.

As if the police are sat there all waiting and linked to customs for a £40 fine...sorry but in this country we can’t even hand over a patients bed notes between shifts and the French ain’t so different. I’d Caen it if I were you and take my chances on the old allez...

The DVLA will hand over your details to anyone with 4 quid.

Did he have the same car ? As far as I am aware there is no link between car registration and passport.

DVLA records are now linked to passport records…

What does the height of the vehicle have to do with it?

That is what we have been promised by our friendly and competent politicians. And I have absolutely no reason to doubt their integrity and ability. We are all going to be millionaires by Christmas thanks to RECLAIMING OUR SOVREIGNTY, which personally has been keeping me up at night for the past 40 years.

I've never been more sure of anything in my life. I've already ordered a supercar in anticipation (McLaren - buy British, obv).

True. A wonderful place to visit, but driving through there is a nightmare. Going east to west now, we use the A29 to avoid it.
