About two years ago, I was sat at a set of lights near my local macdonalds. on my right, was a police officer in a patrol car eating his maccyburger. as the lights changed, he set off driving, still eating the burger, so I rang GMP, and was told it’s not an offence if you remain in charge of the car. Is it one set of rules for the dibbles and one for us mere mortals ?
It is a wonder they didn’t get a helicopter up and have you for using a mobile at the wheel. How dare you try to shop plod?
They have enough on their plate “arresting” prisoners and than burying the wrong body without someone wasting their time with trivial stuff

A ploice TRUCK eh!!! What a great idea, who ever thought of that eh■■? An un marked tractor unit driven by a copper to catch all those naughty truck drivers doing things they should’nt, f-in ideal.
Hang on, ive an idea, this may actually catch on, how about they got some unmarked cars and done the same with all the reps on thier mobiles and women putting on lipstick aswel??
Just a thought.
I’m pretty sure it’s marked.
I could be wrong about this but I seem to remember reading that the police markings were removed once the initial publicity campaign was over.
Could well be the case, I seem to remember seeing it on the telly a while back, it was plain jane then, all over white unit.
It was unmarked on this Clip… Some of you might find it amusing how they stop a Stobarts driver

a woman was caught on police video putting on her make-up while driving at 32mph has been fined £200. Donna Maddock, 22, from Mold in north Wales, was pictured with both hands off the steering wheel putting on her eye make-up.
Magistrates in Pwlhelli fined Ms Maddock £200 plus £55 costs after she pleaded guilty to a charge of careless driving. The Magistrate remarked, “A car is a dangerous lump of metal in the wrong hands.”

Rang them when I got home,so no need for India99 to be scrambled. How can you arrest prisoners, they’re already in prison?

People already in prison can commit new crimes or other things they did before being imprisoned can come to light.
