Travelling down a road with a 30mph limit on Saturday morning riding the VFR with the Mrs on pillion. I spotted a cop car travelling towards me. First thing you do is glance down at the Speedo, a tad over 40, oh well, no problem. Then looked up and noticed two lads on an MX bike riding directly behind the cop car. All the usual, no helmets, hoodies, masks over their faces. It seems to be out of control. On that same road there's a regular speed camera van at 5pm on work nights. It's the contrast between the two that boils my blood.

Scrotes know most forces have a no pursuit policy for bikes being ridden without helmets elf n safety in it. They also know mr and Mrs smith in their new build will pay a speeding fine when caught doing 45 in a 40. Grips my shit

The police do now have the power to ram the little f**kers off the road. Well, the Met does anyway.

Only a couple months ago a couple of these scrotes came to a tragic end in Hull when they hit a wall riding stolen bike with no helmets. Luckily no one else suffered apart from the ambulance man who had to pick the loose head up. They don't seem to learn. Hopefully Darwin gets a few more of them.

The met do but only in certain circumstances and only by approved drivers. There are 3 different main driving skills, standard GP car, response and response and pursuit. Standard is every pc, response is generally couple of people on a shift then response and pursuit is traffic, and specialist units. I’d imagine that those granted the right to forcibly adjust the riding of billy and Aaron scrote are fairly well trained as it all comes down to using reasonable force and then being able to justify it when PSD ( professional standards) come knocking. We used to pursue but the little feckers would cross into the next force area, who wouldn’t pursue and get away, we couldnt pursue in their force area and they had a no pursuit policy.

It's a ridiculous situation. Even see them where I live, and believe me that area is very quiet and law abiding. Apart from me that is...But seriously these morons need to be taken out of the gene pool.

Shepperton isn't that law abiding Alex. I've seen 3 different cars parked parked on "double yellows" in the space of a month, and even heard of one local nutter who parks his old petrol guzzler in an "Electric Vehicles Only" bay outside Costa !!! Disgraceful. Plus I get all my Class A and Disco biscuits from Dodgy Dan just off the High street

pmsl "Disco biscuits"... not heard that term for a long while!
Have to say youre right Dusty, that bloke in the old gas guzzler parking in the leccy parking is even talked about downunder. Disgraceful!
In the summer I was in sunny Shrewsbury and needed a pee. In the local 'mall' area it seems the seating area between the loos is where you score (no cameras perhaps?). The yoofs there had hard man (and later perplexed) looks as I casually walked up and past them while they strutted about holding large wads of cash (I kid you not). One of em mumbled some version 'copper' after Id gone past lol. I did pee looking over my shoulder... hmm... lucky not to get stabbed.

Luckily no one else suffered apart from the ambulance man who had to pick the loose head up. They don't seem to learn. Hopefully Darwin gets a few more of them. Then there was the two in a car down Cavandish Road. One was taken away in two separate bags after hitting a tree at 100. One phrase I like is "you play silly games, you win silly prizes." Hopefully these will win the same prize. Unfortunately they breed faster than Darwin takes them away. Down that same road the bike was on coming home from work a few week ago there was a guy doing a rather impressive wheelie on a scooter that went on for about 75m. Don't get me wrong, it was a good one. A bit further up there were two MX bikes, one with a kid about 8 on the back, no helmets. They turned off and went down the drain bank. Further up was a speed camera van trying to catch people being lucky enough to find enough space to hit 33mph on their way home from work. So out of touch with what people want they're not even in the same county. People have been killed down that road it's true, three that I know of but they've been early hours of the morning and doing in excess of 70 whilst pi$$ed not coming home from work at 5pm.

I've heard rumours about this chap who parks outside Costa in the electric only zone. Not me as I park in the electric zone outside Cafe Mocha. I was worried for a moment there...
