Has anyone got links to just how Pepipoo came about, I´m aware about the part about a speeding accusation but know no more ie details about accusation, trips to court and outcome etc.
Google just seems to send you in a circle. |

Others who've been around here for far longer than I will know more context, but there's a fair bit of information about the actual case you mention here: http://www.pepipoo.com/Our_case.htm, as well as some correspondence here: http://www.pepipoo.com/Our_correspondence_file.htm

No one seems to know where the name PePiPoo came from - it's not the most helpful name for this website.

A quick search suggests a source for the name:
Perjurous Pile of Poo Apparently originally referred to an occifer's statement describing a 'textbook' follow-check which bore absolutely no similarities to the onboard video of the same incident. -------------------- Useful Links (for private parking charges):

Some of us do.
There is a slight clue in the capitalisation of some of the letters in the name PePiPoo. The answer is also in a thread called "Declare your roots" N.B. This post would have been far more relevant if DWMB2 hadn't beaten me to it. This post has been edited by andy_foster: Fri, 3 Dec 2021 - 11:19 -------------------- Andy
Some people think that I make them feel stupid. To be fair, they deserve most of the credit. |

Andy, don't beat yourself up.
You did actually get in first :- andy_foster Wed, 29 Feb 2012 - 07:29 IIRC the etymology of the name was discussed in a thread entitled "Declare your roots" (or somesuch) |
