Once knew a guy who had a Hyundai Matrix. (Don't think he liked cars much......Unusual for a traffic cop).
So one night shift, all was well, and snow covered the Road Policing car park, crisp and even.
Of course the need to provide an emergency service 24/7 means access/egress to said car park was essential. So when a council dispatched grit fairy appeared, its was noted that he had a sizeable plough fixed to the front of his DAF. Somebody.......
...... saw fit to suggest to him, that the Hyundai may have been seized from a driver for an insurance offence. It wouldn't be moving until after the Christmas holidays. Nobody could see any issue with ploughing the snow into a neat pile towards the front of the Korean chariot. (A car much admired by colleagues in the department).
Well our friend from the council did a lovely job. In fact I'd highly recommend his skills. Exceptionally efficient, superb attention to detail..........and a snow pile placed just millimetres from the front bumper, and only a mere 8 feet high. Excellent.
Some night shifts are longer than others......for some of us.
