This made me laugh but i bet a few HT patients get questioned over their changing appearance by officials such as police or airport staff. Has anyone on here had any experience of questions or funny looks regarding their changed look from that of their photo id.



A cabbie told police he €™d €˜had a hair transplant €™ after he was caught using his brother €™s licence.

The man aged 32, who boasts a full head of hair, was challenged over a photo-card which showed an apparently older and bald man, a court heard.

He had been driving down Oxford Road, Manchester when he was stopped by police and council licensing officers.

He told them that he had been using hair re-growth products and had undergone a horse-hair transplant operation. But checks revealed the driver had his licence revoked by a council panel the previous month.

Manchester magistrates ordered the illegal cabbie to pay nearly £1,000 in fines, costs, and a victim surcharge after he pleaded guilty to driving a hackney carriage without licence or insurance.

The driver said after his court appearance he had been banned from driving after clocking up 12 points on his licence.

He told the press €œI took my brother's licence out with me but he €™s a bit older than me. They didn €™t allow me to plead any mitigating circumstances when they banned me. I need to earn so that €™s why I did it. €

A spokesperson from Manchester Council said: €œThis case should serve as a warning to all unlicensed taxi drivers, our officers are out on the streets and are incredibly vigilant. €
