I know the two crimes are considerably different, but even so you can\u2019t help wonder at the paltry sentence handed down to that teenage tosser in the last story when you see one like this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Colin Smith, 42, was stopped by police when they saw his 38-ton lorry weaving on the M90\u00a0in Scotland. He was about a quarter of the way into a 180 mile journey, but when breathalysed was found to be more than<\/strong>\u00a0four times<\/strong> the legal limit. He\u2019d been stopped for an identical offence only a few weeks previously!<\/p>\n

He reckoned he was over the limit because of a heavy session the night before. It doesn\u2019t say what time he was picked up, but if that were true then he must have drunk more than 30 pints! That would be enough to kill a normal gorilla.<\/p>\n

He was jailed for four months and banned for 66 months (nearly 3 years).<\/p>\n

One would hope that the idiot never gets another job driving lorries if he is so irresponsible. It\u2019s hard to imagine what he could have done to innocent drivers in the condition he was in – but to do it twice just takes it to another level.<\/p>\n

Callum Lines in that last story should consider himself lucky he lives in a place where you don\u2019t really get punished for breaking the law. And he should never even think of moving to Scotland. They do things properly up there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
