fixed to Km now

 

buy a white scooby like me and problem solved gotta be a panalty to pull a white car in car snooker

 

mph buddy

 

They will have just noticed a new car in the area and wanted to check it out.
To be fair they might have been w@nky with you due to the amount of little fuds getting their hands on Impreza's now and driving like tw@ts.....

Just putting the creepers up you if were a "cruiser "ned" "chav" or whatever you want to call the folk that blat about town centres hitting the limiter in 1st and 2nd gear.......

I find **** describes them nicely........

Wouldn't take it personally mate, just scaremongering.
There are plenty little paps around where I stay I'd gladly see removed from the roads. It's folk like that unfortunately give young Subaru drivers a bad name and make us targets to be checked.
If you are a proper enthusiast then you've got nothing to worry. They do have to check out new cars in their area but it is still annoying when you recieve that kind of treatment.

 

sorry we all dont know loads about coppers! i didnt even know american cops had "badge" numbers!!! haha they're just numbers we all know what he meant!

 

Force number is probably a better term. And the warrant cards down here have that number on too

 

whos a copper on here then come on then i know there will be some lol if u haver the guts to say hehehe

 

Me

 

Loads of them on here I reckon but I certainly doubt they would want people judging them by the experiences that some Impreza owners have had with bad cops.

 

be carefull they can now arrest you with no charge and hold you for 24hrs no questions asked.
noticed the police attitude has changed since they got their anti terrorist laws updated.
Also it is against the law to film or photo graph them so you could not even film police harrasment

 

I suppose terrorists do drive around with loud exhausts and dump valves. Come to think of it, if that's the case, why don't the anti-terrorist police just arrest all that attend the next Max Power meet?

 

Not me but the grammar police will be along shortly.

 

Tissy is too, if he can understand what you type.

 

24 hours is the maximum pre-charge detention, but it's like £1000 is the maximum fine for dropping litter, it doesn't get used that often!

Unless you've murdered or raped someone you wouldn't get kept that long

 

After hearing stories of Si getting his knee smashed by a drunk in a pub brawl, and the ****** being let off.....

I can understand why most of them are a bit weary of the system.

My own experience of traffic cops, as a Scoob owner is they are either car nuts/owners or complete ****....

LOL

dunx

P.S. Hi c.o.b. !

 

The police around my area are ok. I'm 23 (look younger ) Had mine for a year now and never been stopped once.
But I had an erst before the scoob and got pulled everyday nearly

 

I'd argue that imports are in a different boat, check the RTA, Section 44, Sub-section 1, paragraph b. This pertains to section 41, sub-section 2 paragraph C.(This is what you're talking about)

 

makes little difference as if u make them look silly they will hit u with a section 59

 

Perhaps Phil; but when they see that you understand exactly where you stand, theyd be foolish to compound their mistake.

 

Worth reading...

Your basic Rights... if you get stopped by the Police while driving...

 

There have been a couple of threads on SN about "legal" exhausts and it always get my goat because if you look at the Police Interceptor Scooby it has got the Prodrive back box on it. Is that not double standards?

I know how you feel connor, I had some **** pull me over in my last Scoob. I was travelling up a dual carriage way into the town where I live, double lane my side of the road and single on the other side, Anyway I am just about to pull out and overtake when a traffic car came out onto my side of the carriage way. Now he can do that because the solid line is on my side on the outside of the second lane. He had no blues on but was clearly hooning it for fun so I pulled back in and gave him a flash. Yep you've guessed it, 2 mins later he is up my **** pulling me over. Apparantly he had checked my car reg and it was not insured, yeah right! I said "it was your system is at fault, follow me home and I will show you the certificate". So he did and I duly showed him, he would'nt have though so I said fine give me a producer then and I will bring it all into the local nick. He said "nah, it's not worth the paperwork". "come on" i said. Would'nt do it though. Just being a ****.
Unfortunately he ruins the reputation of all the cops.

 

Printed that off cheers, needed that last monday.
Got pulled by a dog van the cop was been a right well same as OP.
Anyways telling me that i was drivin on the hard shoulder under takin and drive like i stole it, 2 weeks ago. I said what day and time was this, not me then officer i said i was on nights. He then said his got my car booked and the first chance he gets hes having it off the road, then walked back to his car.

In my area i see 3 other scoobs same mica red and same w plate.

Back to op

 

cops are a waste of time round my way

episode 1. disturbed some ****** trying to have my wheels, chased him down the road in me shorts with a kitchen knife, went back to put my wheels nuts back on and had said knife in my pocket incase they came back, cops came past, asked what I was doing, got arrested for going equipped

episode 2. smack head on me mother in laws drive trying to get in the house and generally scaring the crap out of her, she rang me, I jogged round and sent him on his way with a few bruises to remind him how to behave in public, police told me id be arrested if he made a complaint, even tho they had been rang 4 times before I arrived and the bloke had been on the drive an hour shouting and banging on the windows.

episode 3. dude in a black octavia VRS tries his hardest to get me to race but I dont coz octavias are ****e, he goes after someone else who takes thebait, turnsout to be a copper

what a waste of time they truly are

 

1. u have commited an offence carrying a kitchen knife in public

2. u have commited ABH on someone wether or not he was commiting an offence u still cant batter someone

3. thats entrapment first thing u say is i thought u where a carjacker and was trying to get away until u put ur blues on. cops did same thing to one of my best mates when he was in his audi tt and nothing got reported.

 

You must live near me. Sound like my local plods

 

Conner there have one a good few posts on scottishscoobies bout the traffic in inverness way doing scoobs for window tints and exhasts ask over there bout it a joke like.

 

i was told to rip of my tints on my clio because they were to dark, in the middle of pulling them off the officer drives off. ended removing the rest as it looked silly, got it re-tinted the next day
some officers are cool(police interceptors)

wiley

 

They only ask you to 'spoil' the film usually, for what seems like an obvious reason.
