Shovels Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 lmao! Did anyone else see traffic cops tonight? The copper was chasing a Scoobie, proclaiming that their one of the fastest cars on the roads! Then telling us all about his high powered BMW that he was driving. The best bit was they managed to get to all of 111 MPH! Then the nob in the scoobie side swiped a car on a roundabout. To55er.

Steviekid Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Did you see how long it took to pass the lorry once it had pulled out of it's way!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 unfortunately scoobs are now a price where they can fall into the hands of idiots, like cossies did. As I guessed it was an early cheaper model........... but as for one of the fastest cars, a bit of a howler, but for an point to point, A to B car he ain't that far wrong........

RedM Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 What about that tosser caught doing 94? Wouldn't get out of his car, trying to tell the copper what should be done, talking back to him. Damn, I don't like the Police but fair play to that traffic cop, he was very patient. Tosser kept his license too. Pah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 He probably just claimed he was testing the capabilities of his car or that he'd lose his job etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 It's funny when those police chases are on and they say "This car is traveling at extreme speeds, at one point it reaches over 100 mph!!" - ooh wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Jeebers! At 100 they'll be lucky not to get an irate BMW driver flashing at them to get out the way. Even better are the WAAYYY over the top voiceovers on those American show like Worlds Deadliest Nude Police Chases etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 The copper was chasing a Scoobie, proclaiming that their one of the fastest cars on the roads! But they are the fastest cars on the road....we sup drivers are responsible drivers and would NEVER drive at silly speeds now would we.

It was one of the cheap ass basic scoobs (new model with the teeny spoiler) - WRX? Not all that quick in a straight line, but suspect: a) Muppet chav owner who can't drive for shit b) He's trying to outrun a police Omega on the motorway - these cars are not normally kept 'stock' and the drivers are a rather good...

Scoboblio Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 It always makes me chuckle when you see videos of inexperienced teenage car theives / general scum try to outrun highly trained policemen in car's specially spec'd for that sort of high speed persuit.... oh well at least it's good entertainment!

Faye Brother Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 It was one of the cheap ass basic scoobs (new model with the teeny spoiler) - WRX? Apart from confirming it was a classic silver saloon, it was nigh on impossible to tell what variant of Scoob that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 I had a quality pursuit last Saturday with a Ford Focus ST170. Lets just say, he didn't get away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyJawa Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Apart from confirming it was a classic silver saloon' date=' it was nigh on impossible to tell what variant of Scoob that was. [/quote'] It wasn't a new WRX as Faye's Brother says, it was a classic. It had the low level spoiler too making it an early car. Also the reg was M reg. They only came out on a K. Could have been a UK or an import WRX, either way the twat driving was a dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyefi Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 I had a quality pursuit last Saturday with a Ford Focus ST170. Lets just say, he didn't get away! how much more fucked do you get for not stopping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 how much more fucked do you get for not stopping? Depends, The Focus was stolen by robbery (car jacking) and the team that did it did a few more robberies, so they're TOTALLY fucked.(they hit a car, carried on then crashed into bollards.) If you are in your car, and you don't stop for Police and they clock your reg mark, you'll get a knock at your door and get nicked as failing to stop for Police is now an arrestable offence. Cos up until about 2 yrs ago, failing to stop wasn't arrestable so you used to get loads of youngsters going out "pig baiting" evetually they'd stop but couldn't be arrested unless certain criteria applied. So they'd be processed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
