Just read the Ts and Cs of the site:

The Website contains Content over which iXat has no control and as a result iXat cannot guarantee the accuracy or integrity or quality of any Content.

Visitors bear all risk in relation to the use of the Website and should not rely on any Content making (or not making) any specific decision or in taking (or not taking) any specific course of action.

So, it is actually entirely pointless then? And they admit as much?

I'm very tempted to submit a report about a Hemi Orange Dodge Charger, registration CNH 320, being driven far too quickly by a couple of Good Ol' Boys with a string of police cars following them......

I thought the very same after scouring through all the rubbish on the site.

i might even put a complaint about myself on there...... but a silly one

Looking at the admin speed, most cars would have changed owners several times before any reports are posted about them!

Actually, I've just thought of a use for this site... not that anything will happen..

but where I work, one of the regional operations managers' employs a lot of Asian people (as he can treat them like crap basically).

Now, when I have a look through the paperwork they provide, they've stated that they have a provisional licence and yet regularly drive to the office. Several of the cars they've turned up in, I've ran a check on the DVLA only to find they're not taxed... so probably un-insured.

I guess I should start posting up some registration numbers!

My thoughts exactly.

agw_01 · 5 Sep 2006 at 13:48

Yeah, but I'm not really in a position to use the phone... and no one else from this damn office is bothered :rolleyes:

Firestar_3x · 5 Sep 2006 at 13:52

You can e-mail the local police stations usually, this is what i did when we had problems with a farm hosting wedding partys late at night just over the fields at the back of our house.

The moderaors might use the RAC website the check the plates people enter against the make / model and colour and only posts ones which match... therefore i suggest anyone making pranks use the RAC Data Check

I was just thinking of compiling a list (along with photocopies of the licence) and handing them in.

Definitely going to do something though. With any luck I'll be leaving here in a month or two and want to do my bit to get these uninsured idiots off the road.

I've been very tempted to confront them as they've been leaving the office (most of them are scrawny looking and I'd have no problems in standing my ground against them - especially as I feel very strongly about this sort of thing) but know I'd just get told to back down by other people in the office.
