majorbloodnock Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Sorry to be the forum party pooper, but I'm afraid it's a hoax, albeit done convincingly. Here's the link to the article on Snopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Sorry I should have posted that it's a hoax - I always check this stuff on Snopes first. I just thought it was so darned funny that I couldn't post it quick enough. I also sent it to a work colleague who has been up to the limit on points for speeding a couple of times now.
