this was about 11 years ago though so hopefully their reponse times are better now
Wonderful isn't it does anyone remember the story about a guy who had trapped some robbers (or similar) and the police said they were too busy to deal with it, he then rang back and said he had shot an intruder and they turned up straight away - something along the lines of 'we thought someone had been shot' "I thought there was no-one available to attend"

It's so worrying that you can't enjoy your car and a drive out without it being overshaddowed with worry that you could be car jacked, totally takes the fun out of it - disgusting how things have become
