I wouldn't like to be on that. I know that, in theory, once you have
been prosecuted for an offence you can't be tried (note tried...) for
that *same* offence. But in this case I think it would be a new
offence of driving without working lights at a different time/date.

Think I'd have noted her registration number and reported it.

And I am surprised that the police had not issued a VDR form (or whatever
they are now called).

I wouldn't be surprised if, given the chip on her shoulder, she just
ignored them.
