I'm not criticising the police for not acting, they don't I believe, have the resource. Neither was a criticising you for the link, more criticising the web site which I have contacted them about.

You are of course right, if they don't know about an issue they cannot be criticised for not dealing with it and even if they do know, if there are more important things to deal with, these must come first.

Did someone not let go some 20,000 officers? I do understand from the "news" that these are to be replaced but that will take time, you cannot take on that many new recruits at once and while the 20,000 are recruited, others will be leaving and so there should be in excess of 20,000 recruited.

This is where I feel ANPR could help release the burden on police officers, not replace them. ANPR checks mot, tax insurance while there is no officer with that offending vehicle.
