Had the speeding taken place when responding to an emergency call, or to provide back up for other officers, that would have been reasonable, but if you are late for a meeting you either phone ahead and say so, or you turn up late and apologise when you get theere, or if you aredaft enough to speed and get causght to live with the consequences.<br /><br />I trust that the officers who exempted them will also be disciplined.<br /><br />Anon - I agree these officers behaved disgracefully but I have never understood why a police officer who is sacked should lose his or her pension (at least those parts of it built up before their misconduct) it seems to me that in most cases the effect is to impose a disproportionate punishment of a kind not faced by people in most other klines of work.Bagpussnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588995136414705349.post-60655346457946016232010-08-03T09:45:11.216+01:002010-08-03T09:45:11.216+01:00I think that senior officers just have a different...I think that senior officers just have a different view of police work.

In the past, police have prosecuted Doctors for speeding to patients and recently, a husband driving his about-to-give-birth wife to hospital when the ambulance didn't arrive. Both, I would consider, are far more valid excuses than any police meeting.<br />And more to the point, why on earth did the senior officers support the claims and even THINK that meetings are important. Do they live in the same world as the rest of us? No-one would have been hurt or at risk if they were late, but the public were possibly endangered by their speeding.<br />And another question - Why on earth was their a ban on reporting?English Pensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15271488641341955140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588995136414705349.post-50095464312488068482010-07-24T22:15:33.147+01:002010-07-24T22:15:33.147+01:00I blame the old Nulabor Government.
