    how much have you spent..

    .. in total, on fines/penalties and the like?

    i've just forked out £30 on a parking ticket (ficking 8am on a sunday. go to bed ffs!) which is my first, despite being pulled over twice by coppas (once for having a noisy exhaust, once for a non-working brake light)

    so, £30

    Jings, still trying to tot it all up. Must be over £400 in bits and bobs. Nowt too serious, just travelling a wee bit fast and parking tickets. Last time was when I was a teensy bit late for a traffic light and my missus had a huge bowl of very hot chilli on her lap. If i'd braked hard the cleaning bill would have been more than the fine.

    Believe me you can be very, very observant and still be pulled / nicked.

    You must obviously drive like a girl

    My mum once got a parking ticket issued at 4:45 AM on a Sunday morning by a police officer ! Parked on double yellows but not obstructing or anything, and displaying disabled parking badges, we think he was on his way home from a night out
