DUMB COP OF THE WEEK: HE FINED HIMSELF

by Hazed

A police worker accidentally ended up issuing a ticket to prosecute himself after he made a mistake filling in a form about an untaxed vehicle. When this came to light he was thoroughly mocked by his colleagues.

The unnamed cop unwittingly put his own name on the form rather than that of the actual offender. As a result he received a letter from the licencing authority, the DVLA, telling him to pay a fine of £81 or face court action. You can see the letter he was sent at the source link below.

West Yorkshire Police’s Road Policing Unit said, “To the great amusement of the rest of the office, one of our colleagues managed to fill a form in incorrectly, and prosecuted himself for driving an untaxed vehicle!”

I wonder how long it will take him to live this down?
