Giving a yellow sticker to your car is the same as arresting (or summonsing) someone, and charging them with an offence. The courts ultimately decide whether you are innocent or guilty. Same as the pits ultimately decide whether your car is legal or illegal.
Fobz you REALLY have something against police, what happened?

So...
What happens if you are arrested illegally? I would assume there would be some reprocussions if you arrested any joe blow off the street for no reason in particular.
How does this differ to giving out a yellow sticker ("arresting the car") just because an officer doesn't know?
This person with a completely legal car then has to take time off work and pay pit fees just to prove they are innocent. Seems to be a very guilty until you can prove innocent.
Why not have a free assesment within a couple of days after a yellow is given by a qualified person to 'prove' the car is defect worthy? Would be fantastic for police/public relations imo. But again, revenue would be down.
