Are police flouting law?
From my own observations, instances of such flagrant disregard for people’s safety seems to be on the increase, however, the number of fixed penalty notices issued for such behaviour has dropped by 86% since 2011.
One wonders why this is the case. Could it be the fact that the police, the ones who are supposed to enforce this law, also break it by using their ‘Airwave’ radios whilst driving?

Should the police not lead by example?
