O'Plod 'fesses up

This could be the direst Irish joke going, were it not for the impeccable source:
HE WAS one of Ireland’s most reckless drivers, a serial offender who crossed the country wantonly piling up dozens of speeding fines and parking tickets while somehow managing to elude the law.

So effective was his modus operandi of giving a different address each time he was caught that by June 2007 there were more than 50 separate entries under his name, Prawo Jazdy, in the Garda Pulse system. And still not a single conviction.
Then someone in the Garda traffic division consulted a dictionary, and posted a warning:
“Prawo Jazdy is actually the Polish for driving licence and not the first and surname on the licence,” he wrote.
