Nottinghamshire police boss Caroline Henry caught speeding five times

  1. Just to point out, she’s not a police officer, she’s a police and crime commissioner (a politician, but presumably so crap that she’s not even good enough for the back benches).

  2. To clarify, she’s not the boss of the police, she is not a police officer, she’s in an elected role to help guide the objectives and aims of that force, and also to have an oversight on what the money is spent on.

    Regardless, 5 speeding offences, that’s likely a ban for her.

  3. “I have never exceeded the speed limit”

    “The speed limit was exceeded, but it wasn’t me”

    “I did exceed the speed limit, but I was unaware”

    “I did exceed the speed limit, but only in limited and specific ways”

  4. Get rid of her. For anyone who works for the police, their standards need to be higher than that of a reasonable person. Speeding kills.

  5. All of these are 30 zones.

    * On 17 March 2021, on the A6005 near Chilwell’s Olympia Sports Centre, Henry was caught doing 35mph
    * On 18 March 2021, on the A610 in Nottingham, Henry was caught travelling at 40mph
    * On 2 May 2021, in Woodside Road, Beeston, she was caught doing 38mph
    * On 27 May 2021, in Oxclose Lane, near Burford Primary School in Daybrook, Henry was found to have been travelling at 38mph
    * On 8 June 2021, in Oxclose Lane, near Burford Primary School in Daybrook, Henry was caught doing 35mph

    Husband is Darren Henry, MP for Broxtowe (CON). One of her own campaign promises (PCC is an elected position) was to be tough on speeding.

  6. I feel like this is convenient timing, given Boris’s “it’s the same as speeding ticket” party fine.

  7. It’s not that she speeds. It’s that she gets caught. What kind of an idiot gets caught for the same thing in the same way five times in three months?
