| [url=http://www.wigantoday.net/news/local-news/wigan_ace_sam_tomkins_in_court_1_4293789For going through a red light.[/url
Quote WIGAN rugby league player Sam Tomkins has been fined for jumping a red light.
The Warriors player admitted to failing to comply with a traffic signal when he appeared at Wigan and Leigh Magistrates’ Court.
Tomkins, 22, of Thornhill Gardens, Standish, was driving along Chapel Lane, Wigan, on July 27 last year when he failed to stop at a red light. He was given three penalty points and ordered to pay a £45 fine, as well as £15 victim surcharge and £35 court costs.'"
Since when did you need to go to court to plead guilty to a minor traffic offence?

| Disgraceful. Bringing a bad name to this wonderful game. Sack him.
First he was grabbing peoples arms like most other players, no he is going through a red light, next he will be hitting young children! Get rid while we can.
TOMKINS OUT!

| Congratulations for the WEP reporter with this HUGE scoop sitting proudly at the top of their website!
I remember them reporting something similar when Amos Roberts was caught speeding and that too displayed his address.
Have they nothing to report on?

Quote All fines for criminal offences will carry an additional "victims surcharge" of £15... It will be paid into a fund aimed at helping improve services for victims of crime, and will be fixed at a flat rate regardless of the size of the fine. '"

| Quote Disgraceful.
Rogues, you might find it funny, but it's indicative of the path Tomkins is headed down. He believes he's too important to stop at a traffic light and when driving like a "£$!" because you believe you own the world, you are far more likely to harm someone.

| Everyone gets caught speeding, but it generally only goes to court if they deny it. Still no need to print an address.

| Victim Surcharge, I also had a WTF moment as there wasn't a victim. The BBC link says that it was introduced for criminal, since when did a motoring offence like this become a criminal issue?

If you got taken to court and fined for littering in the street, you'd have to pay a victim surcharge. It's basically just a hidden tax, but it goes to a decent place.
