And if as a group we didn't stump up 1400 euro in cash on the spot, he would have gone to gail there and then.

So be warned - Things can get a little more nasty than a slapped wrist and a modest on the spot fine.
Exactly Rob. This is why I would rather cruise down there. Like you say, they are really hot on this kind of thing.

I would expect they know it's a long weekend on the Ring so "La Rozzers" will be out in numbers. Once you hit the derestricted Autobahns you can go as nuts as you like. But it's just too risky to go silly beforehand.

Take note everyone
