What sort of person comes up with such a fatuous story to get off a fine? If it's not "fell asleep in a Tesco car park", it's "I got fined just for dropping a leaf". Just pay to drop people off instead of making up drivel excuses.

Children having difficulties are farmed out to online tutors "abroad". And analysis of student performance show that failing students leave, are kicked out, or lose their enrichment time to do vibe-coding in the afternoons. The system is promoted by criminal Elizabeth Holmes of Theranos.
