I went to pick a friend up yesterday, and outside his house on a main carriageway a Policeman was tucked behind a bush with a speed gun, so whilst waiting for my mate to come out, I stood by my car and waved everyone to slow down. Must have been there ages, and even saved a taxi who was giving it everything his taxi had. He was very happy and thought I wanted a taxi he said, but was buzzing.
The Policeman left in the end and as I was about to pull away with me mate, he pulled up next to me and asked me what did I think I was playing at and asked me did I want to come with him to the next fatality, and realise how stupid I was. He told me I caused a Police obstruction as he was trying to slow the traffic down, to which I told him I was helping him, so what was the problem? He told me basically not to answer him back, and that I'd be done for obstruction if ever caught again. I was about to say 'Mate, I was slowing the traffic down, which is what you was trying to do' but half way through he told me I wasn't his mate, and that I needed to seriously grow up and then drove off in a mood.
I can't see how I broke the law? But I'm sure there's one I did.
