"You're not allowed to ride between the traffic!"

"Actually, yes, I am."

"No, you're not."

"It was utterly stationary as the police had closed the motorway. Yes,
I am."

"No you're not."

"Yes, I am. Your son is not allowed to get out of his car on the M25."

"He can get out of his car if he wants to."

"No..." (etc etc etc).

Anyway, turns out that yes, the address Twatty gave is indeed vacant
because he'd moved out a while back. I have no idea what his current
address is, and his Dad isn't about to give it. Dad just says car was
insured to that address, and son is covered. We shall see.

"And I don't want you writing to him and hassling him..."

"I wrote to him because the phone number he gave was false."

(Pause)

"Well, I'm sure that was an accident."

It'll be interesting to see what the inscos make of it all. Dad says
Twatty has reported it to his insurers - good news, if so, because it
means he may be covered. I'm adamant that I am allowed to ride between
completely stationary traffic, and that you aren't allowed to get out
of your car and go walkabout on the M25 just because you feel like it.

Isn't there also an offence covering careless opening of car doors?
Any TrafPol bods here?
