Vauxhall Frontera driver gets 22mths in jail
« on: 18 January 2013, 19:11:53 »
The guy whose bucket list included driving his 4x4 up Snowdon,was jailed today for dangerous driving.Twenty two months prison was a bit harsh I thought what was really a prank.
Real villians get away with a slap on the wrist.middle age Vauxhall drivers get send down,Easy tergets springs to mind.

He did it TWICE, having been caught the frist time,  and then deliberately failed to turn up to Court ???

Arrogant sod deserved all he got IMHO .... shame they didn't crush the car as well  :y :y

He also denied that he had driven on the rail tracks of the Snowdon Mountain Railway, causing thousands of pounds worth of damage.

No doubt he did  but what damage can a car cause to a railway track?

Sentence him to a place on Ranulph Fiene's next "adventure" . That will let him vent his spirit for adventure.

He deserves to get jailed for even thinking that a Frontera could make it   ;)      ;)

Maybe I am missing something. If the only danger was effectively to himself, how can he be prosecuted for that? No other soul on the landscape it says

If they'd not come down on him like a tonne of bricks every ignorant git with a ropey old 4x4 would have tried it next and the path would have become impassable, as has practically every byway around here, despite being closed except for access due to wet weather. ::)
