Irish Super Criminal Prawo Jazdy

The Irish police had their hands full in the early 2000s dealing with Prawo Jazdy, a notorious serial offender. Of course they weren't violent, but they did show a complete disregard for the laws of the road. Jazdy had received multiple tickets for speeding and parking infractions across the nation. He was able to get away with it because each time he was apprehended, he gave the police a new address and identity.

By the time Jazdy had accrued more than 50 traffic violations, Irish police had begun to make a concerted attempt to find him and put a stop to his reign of terror on the roadways. The Irish police eventually figured out how Jazdy had managed to elude them for so long while continuing committing traffic offenses. It was due to the absence of Prawo Jazdy. Instead, Prawo Jazdy, which is Polish for "driver's license," was being entered incorrectly every time an Irish police officer stopped a Polish driver. An office worker identified the issue and later reviewed years' worth of files to determine how frequently the same error had been committed. In an effort to prevent officers from making the same error again, police released a note.
