  • Parcelforce assault with lazer? any advice on the law concerning this?
  • kaesae

    Just had someone from parcel force come to deliver a package and hit me in the face/eyes with the lazer scanner, then when I asked if it was a lazer scanner I was hit with it in the eyes again, at this point the driver apologized and yet managed to hit me with it again.

    So 3 times so far, he walks away down the stairs and I say to him what the **** do you think you’re doing. He turns around hits me with the lazer again in the eyes and says sorry there is something wrong with this!

    My questions is what’s my legal stand point on this?

    The problem with our society is that I would end up in court over it, however I am looking to prove this if I can!

    Hmmm,watching this thread with interest.

    I was hit in the eye this morning with a laser.

    Admittedly it was the retina scanner.

    Yesterday too.

    Though that was the supermarket self-checkout scanner.

    😯 🙄

    get someone to take a flash photograph of your face.

    If your eyes look red it means some of the laser light is still in them trying to get out.

    Well, there’s absolutely NO EXCUSE to scan someone THERE! I’d complain…in writing.

    Was he wearing a black suit, black tie and sunglasses. Have you seen any aliens recently?

    Actually, forget I asked, you probably can’t remember.

    Typing stuff on the internet probably won’t help your case. Being able to see after having your eyes lazored out doesn’t stand up very well in court.

    Barcode scanners do just that anyway, they’re constantly jumping around trying to scan a barcode. Since I’m anticipating you don’t have a barcode in your eyes, it won’t be interested in them and will go and look elsewhere.

    If I were you I would stick with the Royal Mail.

    They don’t use those dangerous Laser Scanners normally, and the service is very good

    Especially considering the very low prices.

    make sure you convert the text to barcodes so they know you are serious

    Copper to kaesae: Did he laser you?
    kaesae: Yes
    Copper to postie: Did you laser him?
    kaesae: No

    Case closed.

    He has to scan your retina to make sure he’s delivering to the right person…obviously.

    Quite a confrontational chap aren’t you. This stuff seems to happen to you quite frequently. It does rather look like you rub people up the wrong way, maybe time to address your own issues.

    They often have sharks attached to them, which I reckon is pretty freakin dangerous.

    Pedantic part: As others have pointed out they are lasers (it’s an acronym – look it up).

    And no they aren’t dangerous.

    I doubt it. You don’t see the checkout workers, well not the day shift ones, at Tesco with their faces melted off.

    You could borrow my Buzz Light year to attack the Evil Postie Zorg using Buzz’s super powerful defensive wrist mounted laser.
