Why is taking number plates a waste of money?
…they can …..send a letter, pointing out the problem of bike theft.
Good idea I think
AAAH, I can’t believe you can spout such stuff. Call me old fashioned but they should be going out there catching the bloody criminals instead of just informing the public that they’re going to get stuff nicked.
We had one doing the rounds here just after we moved in checking to make sure we didn’t have anything valuable in our garage, eg tools, lawnmower bikes etc.
Of course we’ve got stuff like that in our garage, that’s what a garage is for. Likewise it’s pretty pathetic telling people not to use bike racks for transporting bikes or not to use mountain bikes in the Peaks cos they might get stolen.
To be fair though it’s not the coppers fault. Whether they catch the felons or not is pretty much irrelevant given the derisory sentances handed out these days for ‘petty’ theft of £3,000 items.
