Plod don't have unmarked vehicles with tints, not allowed, plus your Volvo driver would be a class one driver. Plus remember plod cars have black boxes fitted,and they are accountable....... So if the wheels did come off, so to speak he could be in front of the beak gripping the bar..... Job losing stuff.
On the other hand, how hard is it to do 30 instead of about 35?
Unless otherwise signed streetlights mean 30mph
To paraphrase: hit them at about 35 and there's an 80% chance they'll die. Hit them at 30 and there's an 80% chance they'll live.

It would also aid the cause considerably if pedestrians did not walk in front of vehicles. They do not have right of way crossing a road. The vehicle has right of way. Pedestrians must cross "ONLY WHEN IT IS SAFE TO DO SO" Highway code.

yep, that's all fair comment, and I don't disagree.
but I'd be happy to have the inconvenience of incurring occasional scrutiny of zealous policemen if it changes the minds of a few of the '45 everywhere' brigade.
its not only about the risk of injury & death - excessive speed I think has a significant impact on quality of life in towns & villages in terms of noise & anxiety caused. I feel sorry for people who live 30mph roads with cars & commercials whacking past at 50+ all day & night.
well that's me categorized now then
Old bill need to ask for permission to turn their blues and twos on
this is also not the gif i meant
You would be very surprised how many wanted scumbags get caught by just traffic stops , and how much stolen property & drugs are found, not to mention the drivers without licences and or no insurance.!.
As far as the black box gadget in traffic cars they have video recorders in the cabin recording everything, including general conversations.......
So if the officer did deck up the supervisor down loads the data, replays the video....... Like I said , job losing stuff, but we all need then when some **** breaks into your house or car !
