You would have thought that Bannister would admit his crime, but according to Mr Hammett: 'When PC Bannister was interviewed he refused to accept that driving at those speeds in those conditions was dangerous.'
And yet despite the fact that cops appear to be above the law, Bannister was found guilty!
Tom Davies, IPCC commissioner for Wales, commented: "Following the guilty verdict in court today, and after sentencing, I will then consider the force's recommendation for any misconduct action."
Don't hold your breath. If cops in London can get away with murder, we don't expect Pc Bannister to get anything else but a slap on the wrist.
