i know a lad who went to overtake (as the duelie ran out) an unmarked copper and then they put the boot down a little stopping him from getting past
so he just swerved into them smash!
then they chased him down and he found out it was coppers

damn iove seen some things
i mate had the rustiest saff 1.8 i'd ever seen and used to pull up in front of cops do a burn out then fuck off quick
i was in my garden once and he came past in a decked xr2 with a biker copper after him, then he came past again! as did the cop then he came past again!! (doin laps) but went another way, the coppers got waved round again as if it was following itself by some old dear
he beat that 1

i (know someone who) came up to a camera van doin well into 3 figures on the fireblade, i (they) hit the brakes and dirt tracked it thru a field he wasnt gonna follow me(them) so just didnt want the back end his way


also goin past a people carrier (within 3') at over 160 is so much fun, fuck they swerve

Oh, so that's ok then Surely that's waaaay more stupid.

I'm not preaching as I've had my fair share - 42 day ban for 96 in 60, 12 month ban and retest for Dangerous Driving, had points from a Gatso, a marked car (Vascar), an unmarked car (twice), Truvelo, Camera Van, and hand held laser. Not had Specs yet though!

I'm a good boy now though, and only got 3 points which come off in November. Embarrassingly I got the last points while on the Focus ST launch

I passed a traffic car a few years ago doing alot more than I should on a long straight back road , I was on my way home , they eventually caught up with me on a different road not far from my house , I denied all knowledge saying I had just come from home , The cop eventually admitted that I was going so fast he didnt get my reg number ,

Kept me there for about 2 hrs though arguing his point , seems funny now but the though of getting banned at the time wasnt

If I think it's a cunt's trick I'll say so. A people carrier, by definition probably had kids in. Charging up behind it and finding it funny when it swerves is fucking retarded.

I had something similar. Had had a properly shit day and was driving south, been stuck in traffic for ages and finally saw the outside lane was clear, pulled into it and 'stretched my legs' - saw a black 3 series BMW creep up behind me, i figured he wanted to play so squeezed the pedal a bit more... about 20 seconds later his grille lit up with blue flashing lights

Unmarked car and they'd recorded my average speed at WELL over 100, we had the 'chat' and they explained about how over 100 was a ban and talked through everything that would happen about court appearances etc. I was thinking "Bollocks. I've fucked up here." at this point And then he said, "However, at speeds of up to 95mph I have the discretion to deal with this as a fixed penalty of Ł60 and 3 points if you'll accept that?".

I couldn't agree quick enough

Traffic cops are shit hot round here unfortunately and they dont take any prisioners. I got caught in July last year on the A75 just outside Castle Douglas there was no ifs buts or fluttering of my eyelashes, fine and points. Thankfully i was just off the limit for being reported to the procurator fiscal and learned my lesson, DONT GET CAUGHT
