I did not appreciate his dismissive and rude attitude after being caught doing wrong.

First!
Embarrassment for the embassy? I doubt it very much, they’ll carry on regardless. Just look at the figures for congestion charge avoidance!
Wikipedia: Transparency International’s 2021 Global Corruption Barometer indicates that corruption remains a problem in Slovakia. Likely they will try to make phone calls (while driving??) – to get him off this charge? Too many high up in the UK gov happy to pull strings.
"If he is an ordinary member of the Public, Then I suspect that he got his 6 Points and a Fine" – Its horrible that' that sentence even exists in Our Country of 'One Rule for us, One Rule for them' – If you break the law, you break the law and shouldn't be protected by who your affiliated with x
Looks like this is issued to the embassy of Slovakia. I had thought that all diplomatic plates had a xxxDxxx format, but it turns out that is not the case. You learn something new every day.
"I bet you can't afford that anymore" 🤮🤮🤮

Obviously doesn’t care, total disregard and no respect for our road laws. I wonder if they have similar restrictions in his home country??!!
….aw, are those bad bad people using their phones again ? 😂
Thank you, Mikey
The being untouchable of Embassy drivers really is rediculous, they are at least as dangerous as all the other phone-abusing drivers, so they SHOULD pay for their crime too.
Presumably the driver would have to claim diplomatic immunity to avoid a fine. As for the points, was he driving on a UK licence?
Even if the driver does not hold a UK licence, he will still receive a fixed penalty and penalty points which will be endorsed on a record kept by the DVLA (often referred to as a 'ghost licence').
Some friendly advice….Just do your job Mickey, be careful with the back comments, it could be interpreted as antagonism, which could land you up in trouble physically…yes we all know they disregard the law and pose a risk for other road users, just get the info and let the judicial system take over….
Don’t think the r laws apply to diplomatic embassies ?
Definitely a Hitman no doubt !
