RedM Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7291607.stm Police are examining a photo that allegedly shows Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson talking on a mobile phone while driving on a motorway. Adam Blake, 22, and Hayley Byford, 21, claim they saw Clarkson on the phone as he did 70mph (112kph) in a 1970s Mercedes on the M40 in Oxfordshire. A photograph taken by the pair was sent to the Daily Mirror newspaper, who handed it to the police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ads Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 So if I see some idiot on their phone whilst driving I can take a picture and send it to the police with their reg, and they'll actually do something about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterSheen Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hope it wasn't the driver who took the photograph on their mobile phone Funny though as I see countless people do this, so if I send all their pictures in , then the local plod will no doubt congratulate me for my effort - I think not! , more like tell me to feck off and stop wasting their time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl_S Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Heard it on the news yesterday. Poor guy can't even chat on his phone in peace. If it was even him, which I doubt. I don't think driving at 70 mph, while getting worked up about getting a good shot at the alleged clarkson is very safe either. Wonder if they got paid? Papparzi wannabe's. Still I would have prob done the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_S Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Really? For everyone else you see on their mobile phones or just famous people? Just famous people. I took a pic of noel edmunds once. The developing people nicked it though. That said. Even if your famous you should have some privacy, when your not posing. Still, I would have been tempted to snap clarkson.

I think if I got £10 for every photo I took at provided to the police...I'd take a day of work and make a few ££ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 What about the kid driving using his phone to make take a pi?!? Couldn't agree more, whatever that meant. Anyway, how come plod aren't interested when you have pics and indeed video of kids vandalising your car/house/person then? Suddenly it's human rights this and inadmissable that.

RiceRocket Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I remember a few years ago around Xmas the police were offering something like a £500 reward for reporting a drink driver. So you're driving along and spot a drunk driver, ring the police on your mobile and hey presto £460 profit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
