The Chief Constable on the telly

A BBC Wales production called The Chief. I thought a good programme. He has grabbed the headlines with zero tolerance towards motorists then we are given modern community policing in the television program. A complete reversal of his previous stance.

Wasn't listening too closely so the references to Ned Ludd and parachuting went over my head until I read the link. I suppose if politicians are going to take pot shots at him they can expect a little ribbing return. The motorcycle incident is particularly bizarre. We apparently have a motorcyclist doing inappropriate speed with no tax, mot or insurance who crashed into a family car trapping a young family for ninety minutes inside their own car with his body and its then all the Chief Constable's fault. I haven't seen much about the family in the criticisms. An experience that would scar a person mentally and emotionally for life.
