When you have youngsters on their own in the motor, say and do nothing.

No stronger argument in favour of CCTV in cars, for the protection and benefit of both driver and passengers.

If children are not accompanied by an adult, insist that they are or don't pick them up. It only takes one allegation and you're fecked.

Don't get me wrong. I pick up children for one of Edinburgh's train stations and drop them off just 2 mins along the road at a private school, even that makes me feel uncomfortable....

I think from now on I'll be declining the job.

Btw, you're right about CCTV.

Incidentally, I think this guy might be a [edited by admin] :shock: but we'll never know either way. One things for sure, the high court Judges aren't prepared to take the chance, lets just hope they got their man . . . . :shock:

I refuse all unaccompanied children for exactly that reason.
Guilt or innocence doesn't come into it. The allegation is enough.
That kind of mud sticks nowadays.

One attention seeker with a vivid imagination and your goose is cooked . . . even if you do come out the otherside some people believe what suits them . . . .

I know one guy that was accused of trying 'it' on in the back of his taxi.

Lucky for him the tart accused him of locking her in. Her story fell apart once it was pointed out the driver would have to have his foot on the break in the front to keep her locked inside.

Just an evil bitch with a grudge and nothing more.

Btw, I nicer bloke you couldn't hope to meet . . . . :-|
