Police say "They can't be bothered" - despite ?400 vandalism bill


Recommended Posts

Extremely disappointed (not so say angry and outraged) by the police tonight. After 3 separate calls they told me they couldn't be bothered to call the owner of a car which is blocking my garage - despite my scooter being stripped for parts a couple of weeks ago, when left on the street. We're not talking about a driveway here - it's an illegally partied car on a public highway.


Apparently it's not their problem. Neither is it the council's according to them.


The Police were prepared to send two officers to my house when my scooter was vandalised - to advise me on crime prevention but now refuse to even call the owner of a car that prevents me from keeping it safe.


It's obviously moronic.


So - if you can't rely on the council. And the police refuse to help - what do you do when your driveway is blocked?

I'm not the police have phone numbers recorded for every car.

They should have accepted your call and for a blocked drive blocking you exiting they will assign a non urgent ticket and send someone eventually.


If you privately email I will happily look into it for you.

I'm not too sure on this but believe it is not illegal to block access to your property

but maybe illegal as James indicated to block exit from your property...


These issues are always complex and do not always make common sense.


Still annoying though.

    • If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc.
