Just had the Police round for an incident which occurred in march with a traffic warden. They've got to come back and see me tomorrow morning around 9am, what I was wondering is there a legal time limit they have for coming round to investigate? Basically a very attitudy (is that a word?), traffic warden said I gave him a load of mouth etc etc, although I was in my car and he was on the path? Any ideas?

I don't think theres any time limit Del,after all you can be done for murder years after the event

[waspy]

What exactly can they do, after all it's his word against your's isn't it?
If the warden has no witneses or some other form of evidence & you say he's lying then !!!!!

Agree to that 

Regardless of what happened let then make there case, say you don't recall anything about it then say sweet f*ck all 

And next time, if your going to run a traffic warden over, make a good job of it 

I'll await the knock on the door from dave's internet police now

Traffic wardens round here have CCTV on them, whether it's been seen or whatever I'm not too sure. Really dislike their attitude (traffic wardens that is), they act clever in a uniform, but as soon as you say anything to them, they're on the radio whinging.

For future reference, when dealing with traffic wardens...

mmmmmmm, sit down and see what they have got then 

Pay special attention to the time stamp on the monitor to make sure they have not been editing the tape to there advantage

No Comment to everything

Both his car and him were there. He said so. It's also difficult to argue with a person if you are not present.

Del. See what CCTV or any other proof they have. If not anything significant, then play the "I don't really remember specific details" card if I were you. "Yes, Officer we had a few words, but cannot really remember what even started it......."

Personally I think the "no comment" phrase implies guilt - at the very less being bloody minded. Play along a little, be pleasant, and even if you hate the buggers, forget your feeling for that moment as you don't want the trouble. A little bullsh1t pandering may not go amiss. "I really didn't mean anything by whatever I said etc etc. Sorry if he/she felt insulted etc etc smelly stuff smelly stuff bla bla."
But limit what you say to a minimum not to talk yourself around in circles.

Our lads wear head cams or shoulder cams just for situations like this,if they're coming after you they must be pretty sure of the facts as they wouldn,t waste their time or the polices time,we only call the police as a last resort as they get the right hump if they think we are wasting their time .  It's suprising how many allegations are withdrawn when people are confronted with a nice video of themselves ranting and raving , sad thing is many of them drag family members in as "witnesses" and they can end up looking like liars .

As said, sit back and let them do the talking, show the evidence, etc.. Don't incriminate yourself by admitting to anything up front. It was a long time ago and your memory will need to be jogged.

Silence can be golden, enough rope to hang yourself etc.
