19 cars were stop checked on Shore Rd, resulting in 1 car being seized for no insurance, 4 drug wipes & 4 tickets issued for driving offences.

A 25 y/o man from #Tarleton was also arrested on suspicion of PWITS, drug driving & driving with no insurance after 39 bags of cannabis were found in his car - he has since been released under investigation.

That'll be Shore Rd Banks, not Shore Rd Ainsdale then :-)

So Chief Inspector Matthew Moscrop considers drug trafficking a very serious crime, in fact he points out that it is associated with FIREARMS, KNIVES, VIOLENCE, GANGS.

YET, this guy walks away............ under investigation, ..........what investigation?...he's caught in possession of the goods, what more needs investigating?

SO he walks away till some snowflake in the CPS decides whether or not to slap his wrist.

How much does this sort of PR exercise cost?........ according to the interview, that one day alone involved 80 officers being used, .........
Result:-

1 car being seized for no insurance,
4 drug wipes
4 tickets issued for driving offences.

No wonder we have no confidence in the system.

The sooner we adopt the French system of 'mass roadside breath / elicit / prescription drug testing' the better, every car gets stopped and tested!
