Speeding German gets Christmas present
A young woman in Germany who burst into tears when police fined her for speeding received an early Christmas present when another woman caught for the same offence paid the charge.
Authorities in Aachen said the older driver was so moved by the woman’s crying at the police station that she pulled out her purse and handed over the money.
“It is Christmas soon, after all,” local police quoted her as saying.
Let’s hope that kind of Christmas cheer is happening in UK police stations.
