When David Knight received a fine for driving in a bus lane in Bath, he knew immediately there had been a mistake.
After all, the builder had been nowhere near the spa city – and he lives 120 miles away in Dorking, Surrey.
But when he and his wife, Paula, took a closer look at the photographic ‘evidence’, they were left in stitches.

The letter for the fine David and Paula Knight received from Bath and North East Somerset Council, which had already gone from £60 to £90 as they hadn't paid within 30 days
