Authorities seem to have no trouble at all when it comes to issuing fines for the most trivial highway offences if it is a vehicle. Yet Lorries are seldom fined for damage to pavements, utility firms seldom, if ever, pulled up for poor reinstatement works, and riders of mopeds never checked for anything. The sad and nasty incident reported today overlooks one thing. A 14 year old riding a Moped.  Really poor reporting. It is illegal to ride a Moped under the age of 16 and without a first part test.  Not a single mention of that fact.  You see really young kids riding them here. Are they ever checked?  Doubtful. And what is said when a tragedy occurs?  Shrugged shoulders and buck passing. It's double standards all the time.  Some people seem to simply get away with anything again and again and yet others simply through easy targeting, are brought to book for the most insignificant of offences. Is 3 mins parked in a street a bigger offence than fly tipping and damaging the environment? Or speeding down pavements or running red lights at speed? The signals this sends out just creates a bigger and bigger disparity and creates a lack of respect for our surroundings and way of life. This sort of targeting for easy money whilst at the same time letting criminal offences that have a wider effect go unchecked, says it all. There should be zero tolerance of all law infringements. Not just selective enforcement to suit revenue income.  The law is the law for greater reasons than fiscal return.  It is for a safe orderly and fair society and it's protection.
