Drivers who catcall passers-by are being targeted by an undercover police operation.
Women officers wearing plain clothes have been walking in areas of a city where students have complained of being harassed from cars.
Drivers who shout ‘things from their vehicles’ risk being pulled over and handed a fixed penalty or, if taken to court, fined £1,000.
Risky in more ways than one! If you pass them but don't letch out of the window, presumably you'll get pulled over to ask why not?
The crackdown on sexist and lewd comments by men is taking place in Bradford...Hmmm, Bradford, eh? I wonder what demographic is most at fault here?

Once they've nabbed the first 3 offenders there will be howls of racism and it'll be quietly dropped. Students will then be told to shut up for the sake of diversity by the local MP.
I know our police look younger these days, but surely not young enough to appeal to our favourite demographic?
By plain clothes do they mean burkas?
This might be shitty behaviour but I wasn't aware that it was actually illegal. What law are these oafs to be prosecuted under? Or is it the case that the authorities nowadays just make up laws on the hoof whenever someone does anything that they don't like?
Maybe the Plodettes (not a Motown group) have a multi language translation app. in one of those multitude of kit our modern polis have strapped about their person.
I suppose asking a pc PC "Have you got the time?" is a Go To Jail, Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect £ 200 question.
Yep, instinct tells me this is going to be one of those programs where the only guy who gets busted is some sixty-two year old priest who asks for directions to St Patricks, meanwhile the Men Of No Appearance will be free to keep on screaming obscenities at any passing Infidel whore.
The Royal Charter conferred upon Bradford Groomers by Prince Andrew, was the game-changer. So plod responds with pigs in gymslips and lipstick, loitering at school gates or generally posing as teeny white girls but fooling nobody.
After a few drivers called Mohammed are caught, the "community" will besiege the nearest police station until the promotion-seeking idiot who thought this scheme up quietly drops it.
Meanwhile lawnmower thefts in the area are through the roof. Priorities indeed.
Jaded
The demographic most responsible is the one least likely to be punished

SNORK!
"This might be shitty behaviour but I wasn't aware that it was actually illegal. "
Fancy expecting the modern police farce to worry about such things like the law!

Spot on!

Yup, everyone can see the gaping flaw in their plans...
