A few months ago a truck turned and skidded towards me because i undertook him at a junction, all perfectly safe and no danger to anyone i might add, a few verbals and of he went, if i wasn't a new rider i probably would of crashed in to him and the outcome could of been worse, so reported him to the police as i had it all on camera.
When the police come and seen the footage he said that's Dangerous driving and nothing else, he had to send the company a form to find out who was driving and after establishing who it was, was going to question him, so, i gets a visit the other day and he said i have some bad news, he said he sent a section 59 form instead of a NOP form and that was that as he was supposed to sent it within 14 days, he told us he thinks he is going to get a bollocking and has been summoned to a disciplinary hearing for mucking it up as his inspector said we had him over a barrel, with the guy saying a dog run out in to the road and having a solicitor with him we couldn't get out of it, i was fuming as you can imagine.
What i cant understand is why a NOP form, i haven't heard of this before, i thought he would be questioned and then sent a summons to appear in court, have things changed, and is this just a get out clause for the police.
