Going north M6 Stafford on Tues morning, notice itchy patch of skin behind my ear. Thought it a bit weird - next thing plod in front telling me to pull over on to h/s.
Woman copper; I think you were on your phone
Me; No - I got itchy head, besides I’m Bluetooth and points to earpiece hanging on tail lift switch
WC; Show me your phone - I’ll check
Has a look through phone and seems dissapointed no in/out going calls.
WC; Any more phones in this cab?
Me; No
I’m really biting my tonge cos I really want to say 'Aint you got nothing better to do - ffs
She makes quick depart - and leaves me with 200 yds to get onto m/way before h/s narrows down to nothing! 
maybe she fancied you.
was she fit?

i’ll take that as a NO then
and Phil, it will probably be the last time too
If this happens again to anyone , make sure you take the collar number of the copper,
She should have taken you off the motorway either to a layby or on to a services…,using a phone does not constitute an emergency,
Crap. when I saw tug and policewoman in the same thread I couldnt help but read on 
Got done 3 weeks ago. 3 points £60 . Sat at a red traffic light, phone rings, realised the flaming thing hadn’t connected to the browntooth handsfree, answered it (Know I shouldn’t have but it was a call about a job I’d applied for) said “Give me 2 mins I’ll ring you back” Put the phone down. Lights turned green, off I went pulled 100 yards up the road… 
My own fault and I know I shouldn’t have done it but what really hacked me off was the attitude: You’ll have to have points because you people never learn says Mr Plod. 
“Beg your pardon” I say, “Ive never had points or so much as a parking dent”
“Nope” says Mr Plod, “You’ll have to have the points for that”
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr .

should have done a HATO, and reversed back and then attemped to rejoin the motorway

or beg for it
this is where fitting cameras inside the cabs of trucks facing not only outwards but facing inwards too would settle this as not many police officers would let you off with it.

lovely… that will do it just as you change your underpants in the morning waving your doodle in front of it…
No thanks I rather have my privacy inside the cab…
All cops are [zb]s. I’ve been saying it for years and yet people still defend them. One day the penny will finally drop.

as far as i know these cameras only work when the ignition is switched on, not when your parked up in some layby scratching your [zb] for your boss too see.

weather they work with ignigtion on or not, i still don’t won’t to be spyed on, i chose this profession for the solitude not to be stared at whenever they want.
Did the copper apologise for accusing you of doing something you hadn’t done ? (I think I know the answer)

You chose to stop where you did. Not her fault you didn’t look ahead and realise it wasn’t a suitable place.

We all know what to do now when we see plod in the mirror.
