Plymouth court list reveals various offenses, including drunk driving, property damage, and assaults.
The Department of Transport made the posters and displayed them in public places. Public service ads also ran during TV shows. One ad featured a man at a cell door, stating: “Get caught, get processed.” Ads stressed that drunk driving is a crime and showed it’s socially unacceptable.
