>> Getting the police to do anything in a reasonable timeframe (go to obstructing vehicle, remove
>> it, fine the miscreant for the costs of removal and inconvenience) is currently wishful thinking.
This all hinges on the shortage of competant police officers.
The days when the police service was seen as a good job and the police could choose good quality recruits to a well paid job are over.
Hence we get lower (lower, not low) quality recruits who are rushed off their feet. If you are copper who's done 26 years, you are going to hang on for the pension. Which can lead to the various crimes carried out by police officers that we have heard about recently.
As ye sow, so shall ye reap.
My gran used to say that - very irritating.
