Hanratty’s skills
It is usually assumed that because Hanratty was a car thief he was a good driver. There is evidence to suggest otherwise, such as the collision in Ireland, and he didn’t have any driving lessons. The only licence he held was one he gained in Ireland where the rules regarding taking a driving test are very much different to those in the UK.
(Can't fathom out how to use the quote function, but the above is part of posting 799)
Hanratty was also a professional burglar and had spent five years banged up in the University of Crime. But he still kept leaving his fingerprints all over the place. Seems he wasn’t too good at his chosen professions.
