--------------------------------------------------------------------------I think that he got a big fine as he was charged with DANGEROUS use of rollerblades, not excessive speed. The fine was in line with a motorists offence of DANGEROUS driving. The more lenient fines for motorists are for excessive speed. If you drove a car down the road like he was skating you would get a very strict sentence so I think this was dealt with correctly. I think everyone is going soft on him and he has got so much publicity because of his age. That is ludicrous. He was acting dangerously and irresponsibly in my opinion. If some moron was skating around like that in a busy centre I would most definately have words!
big front page stoty today in the metro where he says he will just go to another city centre.......if his excuse is that he enjoys listeneing to the music they play he is a lier as you dont hear music blaring out of every shop........... i think he is just an exibishanist with a big ego that thinks people adnire him wizzing around,if music and scateing is his love then a set of headphones connected to an i pod and he can scate ti his hearts content somewhere not busy.....watching the video again he was wizzing sharply round objects and stopping often.....to say he will go to another city is shear contempt and stupidity, wont be long befor he cuts a child who runs suddenly...children are ok to do that as its safe in city centre's as long as you dont have some pensioner who thinks he's christopher dean on speed.....
mmmmmmmmmmmm didnt it say he's 72 and isnt there someone on here 72 who is champioing his case.................have we found the elusive Guru ?
