Alex Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 How I loathe traffic police. I'm sure they must be artificially created from the mildew in the Police Station showers.

silvershark44 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 You including our resident Class One driver and Moderator?? /Stir Stir, sit back and allow to simmer. never realised he was a traffic cop. I knew a traffic cop that was asked to leave becuase he drove too fast. He currently has a couple of TVR's, classic and new as he married to a very successful business woman.

squiffy Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 i got busted the other day, some of his wisdom: "you are too young to have a car like this" "typical supra driver behaviour" refered to my mate as "numpty" what a knob jockey! the other cops i have dealt with have always been professional and fair, and i am calm and polite back to them. i know he was trying to provoke me, and nearly did!

Green Peace Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Only to be expected, you dont have to have a great deal of intelligence to be a Policeman....sarcasm is the best weopan for someone with a low I.Q. He prob thought you were driving a Ferrari...what a plank...yeah I agree go catch some criminals and stop harressing law abiding tax payers....

He prob thought you were driving a Ferrari...what a plank...yeah I agree go catch some criminals and stop harressing law abiding tax payers.... I think people's perception of this are quite interesting. After all - despite the comments he made, he didn't really do very much other than check the car appeared to be legal. I wonder - if your Supra was nicked and you somehow found out that it had been briefly parked illegally next to a police car, but had been ignored by the police and then the thieves had driven off scott free. What would people think? That's OK because the police probably would have assumed they were innocent tax paying citizens and were busy solving real crimes?

Class One Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 How I loathe traffic police. I'm sure they must be artificially created from the mildew in the Police Station showers. I do too! You including our resident Class One driver and Moderator?? /Stir Stir, sit back and allow to simmer. Common misconception, but no I'm not. He wasn't a traffic cop, just a sit on his arse and do nothing on the beat bobby. I used to be one of those. Didn't get alot of time to sit around on my arse though! He's not a traffic cop. No these days I work in the exciting world of Police Intelligence. If ever there was an oxymoron.... Sarcasm, the lowest form of wit, can actually be used to great effect. Takes alot of practice eh Si? Tim, sorry you got a bad serve mate, one bad apple and all that, but I'm not apologising for his unprofessional behaviour towards you. I mean FFS there are more important things to do than chew someone out for parking. Anyway, for the record, I am not nor have I ever been Traffic. (Where's that spit smiley?)

JohnA Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 ...He said nothing just let me get in car and start up. He then came to side window and tapped on glass. I wound down and he asked me to turn off car. You could have waited until he had walked away, then got into the car. If he was to give you a ticket (and not the other cars) then you could take a couple of pictures and ask why. If he was to walk away (most likely) then you would have avoided the personal encounter. What good could have come out of it? He then proceded to say I was illegally parked etc, etc, and asked why? This is a rhetorical question. You are not meant to answer it. ..."Well you choose to to drive a car like that and I guess you can afford to, so you have to put up with things like that" Uncomfortable truth, eh? That's why I often drive around in a battered old Astra estate. ...He gave me a producer and then said: "if I find out it is not insured I will come and impound it." He would personally see to it, eh? OK, he was petty and pathetic. The encounter was still avoidable, wasn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Only to be expected, you dont have to have a great deal of intelligence to be a Policeman....sarcasm is the best weopan for someone with a low I.Q. Oi! Do you mind?? I don't have a weopan Anyway Mr Prawn, TBH if he really was a total plonker you'd have got a ticket. You did park illegaly (yes, I know... along with everyone else) and get away with it. I constantly see cars parked on the pavenent so close to walls etc that people in wheelchairs or with pushchairs have to venture out into the fast moving traffic because of these inconsiderate drivers. I'm not saying that you were parked like that, but sometimes people really take the p*ss. Also the best way to 'find' a good criminal like drug dealer etc is to be proactive..... such as getting out of the station and getting amongst the public, talking to people, dealing with even minor issues & checking people out. The major league criminals, while regularly doing serious stuff, also always do the minor stuff too... like driving with no insurance/no licence/no road tax/no seatbelt... parking illegaly etc. To them this trivial stuff is nothing, but its what gets them caught So, although you feel aggrieved about the way you were dealt with, and it may have been over the top, you were more than likely just being tested. Nice fast car parked illegaly???? May set alarm bells ringing...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as he ascertains that Mr Prawn is Kosher, he should have treated him with respect rather than behaving like an annoying twat.
