Bedford Police: Do As We Say, Not As We Do

I walk past Bedford Police Station on the way from the Railway Station into work. I just one week I witnessed three occasions where Police cars were flouting parking law. After the first occasion I decided to photograph any subsequent breaches.

I believe it is necessary to have rules in order to protect people, and keep society running smoothly. I find it irritating that so many of societies rules, such as speeding, are routinely flouted.

However, why should anyone abide by the law, when the Police themselves routinely break it?

10/03/2013 - Update - For some months now a few parking places seem to have been left available, so that parking on footpaths/yellow lines is no longer happening. Wonder if this piece helped, situation changed shortly after sending the link to the local press!

    I am baffled by the reference to fool/idiot, there is not a named party in this piece to lambaste.

    Thanks for confirming that you are a fool anyway.

    Just to make it clear, you are the fool, now jog on and don't spam other sites with your drivel.

    I do not understand why you should think me a fool. Is it not better to tackle issues which are wrong, and suffer some condemnation, rather than criticise others anonymously.

    Ooh, quick, a police car is on a double yellow! Quick call the er... Police?

    I never chose to be anonymous, there, my full name. Happy now? That changes everything doesn't it?

    Anyway, have you deleted that post yet?

    The point is how can the Police/law expect respect, if the enforcers do not even stick to the law?

    What issues have you got with such a simple, and to me not foolish, statement?

    Look, it's getting boring now, you keep asking me questions and I reply, you however cannot answer one of mine, so rather than drag this out further, I'll go, safe in the knowledge that you are a fool....

    Hi Graham,

    You have not explained why I am a fool, or answered any of my questions.

    You have asked one substantive question. "Anyway, have you deleted that post yet?", to which I will reply why should I? Further, I would dispute that my post is spam.
