    A man in the scooter brigade of the traffic enforcer people would be getting disciplined.

    Anyone know the best number to call to complain about dangerous driving from these muppets?

    He pulled a u-turn in the street (Clerk St), ended up side on in front of me, moved round to be right in front of my path and i had to pull out into the main carraigeway to avoid impact. He then veered left to book a van. I shouted at him to watch where he was going and he totally ignored me

    Had front flasher on and broad daylight. Numpty.

    Anyway - number anyone?

    I've had real problems with traffic wardens insisting on walking on the bike path at the north of the meadows, and being rude and threatening when I pointed out (quite politely) that it was a cycle path.

    You could try Parking Services.

    Woo - busted!

    They tracked down the 2 people it could have been and are verbally warning the one who admits to it.

    Then they get 'chaperoned' next week to observe their driving style and conduct.
    WIN!

    Wowee. Amazing. I should have done that about my 'run-in'. (I can describe him perfectly...). Good for you!

    Nice one, I get the feeling some of them think they're above the law. I've seen one of the moped-enabled enforcers going the wrong way down a one way street (entire length of Valleyfield St) and, when I challenged him, he sped off before I could clock his number. He was quite smug about it too, which galled.
