Internet Pics

A 21 year old christchurch man has appeared in court, charged with reckless driving after he posted pictures of what he had done on the internet. The pictures clearly showed dangerous driving and people from both here and overseas complained to police. The police found it easy to track the driver down as his car registration number was visible in the pictures he posted. The driver pleaded guilty and was disqualified from driving for 9 months and community service. This shows the way in which whatever you put on the internet becomes part of public space and inturn there can be both positive and negative effects such in this case.
