His case failed because he didn't have a leg to stand on - he refused to comment to the press and hot footed it from the court.

Police are stamping down on illegal speeding, and warned motorists should toe the line.

The RAC said it was just a knee jerk reaction!

Have I missed any? :wink:

Is it really that funny to keep pulling his leg?

That'll teach him to step out of line.

Now I know why our local shoe shop has rows of shoes on display, all with only one shoe of each type - the rest were shoplifted by one legged shoplifters!
At least he can afford to run a Ferrari! :o
