Q But were you able to establish a satisfactory address at
the scene of him?
A Not at the scene, no, but subsequently we were able to
issue a fixed penalty notice.
Q Again in general terms was Mr Cordell being co-
operative?
A No.
Q What was his demeanour and how did that develop?
A I would say un-co-operative. I personally found some
of the language he was using towards me quite
offensive, some of the comments he was making.
Q Did you call for assistance from — from a senior
officer at one stage?
A Mr Cordell insisted at one point that — that an
Inspector attend. Fortunately, as it was, as I mentioned,
a traffic operation, there was an Inspector within the
sort of immediate area and an Inspector did come
down and speak to Mr Cordell.
Q After the Inspector had left, were you still able — were
you then able to issue the fixed penalty notice?
A No, I was not.
Q I think you eventually - is that right? - arrested him?
Is that right?
A Yes. Unfortunately, I was inevitably having to deal
with it by that way because, you know, he was so un-
co-operative.
Q But I think at the police station - is that right?
- with the help of the custody sergeant you were then
able to issue the fixed penalty notice?
A Yes, yes.
Q Is that right?
A Yes.
Q And I think you — you made a further check on the
policy back at the police station to check it was social,
domestic, and pleasure and -- motor trade?
Is that right?
A Yes. I contacted MIB, the Motor Insurance Bureau.
MR Yes. If you’d just like to wait there.

Q And they’re — it’s a pretty detailed note you took, isn’t it,
of this incident?
A Sort of the standard I like to try
