A new catch-all Tea Shop thread for those miscellaneous new stories that don’t quite fit with parking, crashing into buildings or trapped/prisoners in their homes.

Another driving tragedy and another Coroner not grasping the bull by the horns, so we will learn nothing
This is Audi A1 YH66 UTP pulling out from a school onto the main road ‘interacting’ with a mobile held in the right hand. No response from Lancashire Constabulary- the officer, if they ever think at all, no doubt thinking ‘nothing happened, what’s the fuss about’

Bailiff demands £394 as couple’s 2022 parking fine comes back to haunt them
Now Shaun and Joy Pickerill, from Fegg Hayes, have been given until 11 February to pay up
Heart attack victim Shaun, aged 64, said: “There were probably parking signs and meters but my wife made the basic assumption that it was free because it was the last time she’d visited.

Sandwich BMW drifter opens Skidz Advanced Driving School at Manston Airport
“Drifting on the road can cost up to £100 a night. You’ve got the worry of the police taking your car as well as being seen as a public nuisance. The drifter community just want somewhere safe to do it without the stress. Cars can reach five-figure sums and people don’t want to see them impounded.”
The engineer, who has a business modifying drift cars, has previously been banned from the road three times and fined a total of £7,000.
EDIT : I’m curious as to what the £100 a night actually goes on. Tyres, fines?

‘Unrest’ in village stops roadworks amid ‘serious safety’ concerns
Big fuss about what is obviously not a ‘serious safety concern’, yet when there is one the police do nothing for months and years. This pickup is outside the pub 100 yards from Garstang Police Station yet again tonight
