On the way to work this morning I was following a car with 2 children in - one in the front and one in the back. Neither were wearing seatbelts and were primary age. I wrote down the number plate and called the police station. They said that they wouldn't do anything unless I went and made a formal complaint and that the CPS could then prosecute. I've phoned the police about this type of thing several times before and never been told that. What would you do? I thought they would just send someone to have a quiet word and make sure the kids were wearing seatblets. I had thought I could maybe telephone the school and see if they had any ideas. Or am I just getting too involved and maybe it's non of my business - but I worry about the kids. TIA. PS won't be around until much later to check on this.
