IT WOULD APPEAR that Australia's reputation for being populated by criminals is not entirely mythical. A bloke from Scunthorpe, England received a speeding ticket from the Adelaide, Oz police despite never having visited the country.
David Smart was somewhat gobsmacked to receive an £89 fine and a £14 late payment penalty after an Adelaide woman claimed he had been driving her car.
Smart told the Daily Mirror:
"I've never heard of her. I think she's gone on the Internet, looked up the
electoral roll and gone, 'That one will do'."

What a fool picking a real person... A politician just got busted for picking dead people as his 'drivers' here also. If you chose a friend of yours from overseas and pay the bill or pick someone from a country they dont chase up you dont lose your points and thus dont lose your licence
Smart money is on the plod!
