Despite 98% of people believing themselves to be law abiding citizens, a study has revealed that the average Brit commits 32 "crimes" every year.

The crimes range from using someone's WiFi without their knowledge to pocketing incorrect change at the tills.

A third of the 2,000 people surveyed have even been caught doing something illegal but a third of them blame that on simply not paying attention to what they were doing.

Meanwhile two thirds of us don't think some of these laws are even necessary, but seven in 10 of us still feel guilty when they break them reports the Grimsby Telegraph .

The results of the OnePoll survey also found that 1.52pm on Saturday is the time people are most likely to break the law.

No remorse: Using someone else's WiFi without their knowledge is against the law

We also spot law-breaking behaviour an average of four times a day but just 10 per cent of us would confront the person breaking the law.
