First hand experience today of a kn%^head going off piste on a green lane near Henley in Arden, Warwickshire.

I was walking at the time and did try to reason with the guys but to no avail and they continued to chew up the lane....what chance to do we have when these guys are kicking around ?

I did offer him the fact that the lane could get closed if people could not act responsibly - he said the reason he did it was because it was fun....mmmm

Blood is still boiling now !!

Oh, I did take photo of car / reg and have asked the police via on line facility if they are interested, lets see Sweatysock

I know you must be fuming but your in the unenviable position that if you do report it it adds to the ammunition of people that want to stop us using these lanes.

ROW also informed. I am not sure about posting the piccie and reg on the forum but it was a metallic blue suzuki, X reg (yeah forgot to say it was not a Land Rover).

In terms of not reporting as it adds ammunition to those who will use it against us - well you are of course correct but not to act would be like condoning their actions and additionally, the aim needs to be longer term such that we get these guys stopped....Perhaps a vain hope but nonetheless, I sense action needs to be taken Sweatysock

Don't agree with this. Personally, I feel that if he wants to report it he can do so with a clean conscience.

Trouble is, with the rise of four wheel drives being used for the school run, there's going to be an increase of cheap cars on the second hand market. It makes me sick that a few idiots undo the good work of all those that try to help with 4x4 Response and the like. Report every idiot I say! Evil or Very Mad Peter

There is only ever one right thing to do with such idiots and you've done it...shop 'em. If you don't we'll all be tarred with the same brush and all be banned.

In our owners club, we have a couple of key contacts that liaise regularly with the authorities and so get listened to a lot more rather than each of us individually reporting stuff.
