'The positioning of your vehicle, occupying that particular lay-by is totally irresponsible.'
The force was blasted after conducting speed checks in Tighnabruaich, Argyll and Bute, and publishing a picture of the operation on social media. The above photograph was posted on the Argyll & West Dunbartonshire Police Division Facebook page.
User Mark Currie wrote: "The positioning of your vehicle, occupying that particular lay-by is totally irresponsible. Don't talk about keeping people 'safe' when you have not considered that you could have parked along the road and walked to where the officer is. The force responded: "The officers must remain beside the vehicle hence the reason for the parking. If anyone needed passed they would obviously move to accommodate this." But Mark wrote back: "I believe in this case what you have done is compromised an important lay-by in the interests of ‘catching’ drivers as they come around a poorly sighted corner.
