Phew lucky escape! (car park snow sliding and police related)

I think you may have me confused with someone else?

I've always been polite, cooperative and respectful as always been great. I had (and still do in fact) a massive amount of respect for the job that they do. Although it was only recently after realizing that not once in any of my encounters with them had my politeness and respect been returned I've begun to take a rather dim view of them.

Like I said, I'm not going to be an ****, that's just asking for trouble but I'm not going to try and bend over backwards to be a model citizen for them if my politeness is going to be met with condescension and a ****ty attitude :).
 
Unless i'm ultra confused, it was you involved in the recent argument about the police persecuting you just because you were black and all us whiteys just wouldn't understand?

If it was, then no i'm not confused and my view is taken from the attitude you displayed in that thread, along with your suggestions in this thread which leads me to believe that however much you may claim to the contrary, you've probably actually been sarcastic and lippy in your encounters with police.
 
Oh no, that was me :).

I can say that I'm nice and polite until the cows come home, all you know of me on the subject are the slightly militant views I displayed in that thread so it's a moot point and I'm obviously not going to be able to change your mind.
 
Reminds me of a couple of friends I used to work with at Tesco. They got a load of cardboard boxes and took them down an industrial estate late at night, proceeded to make them into a pyramid and drive through them like something out of a film.

Police turn up (random patrol) and ask them what they are doing. They don't lie and explain sheepishly.

Police then ask them to demonstrate whilst laughing muchly at the larks.

Made them pack up shortly after, but shows they aren't all bad ;)
 
Had fun with this last year, sliding around a business park car park one evening in the RWD Volvo. Meanwhile there were a bunch of barried hatchbacks parked up and they were just talking.

Saw the blue lights coming (you have to drive around 3 sides of this car park before you can get in) and decided to make my exit. As I'm leaving the police drive straight past me and go to hassle the parked up chavs who were doing nothing wrong.

Awesome! :D


I took my father's Alfa Romeo Montreal out when he still had it a couple of years ago. I was pulled over - but only because they loved it and wanted to have a look at it - I asked them if they wanted a spin in it and whilst they're not allowed to, it was a quite road in Surrey so they had a go! :D
 
Most of the cops are alright TBH :). Aslong as you weren't actually endangering anyone on the public highway.

Friend got a slap on the wrist last year for playing around in his E60 M5 in a deserted snowy carpark. Just told not to do it again and be on his way :cool:.

Bet that I'd get the full force of the law thrown at me in my Saxo though :p.

Of course you can in reverse :).

For best results get a bit of speed up first though, like this professional driver/prat illustrates:

Clearly you need more than one person on the roof though, so get some volunteers from any crowd that gathers to watch. If they get crushed during the display of mad skillz, don't worry - it's just natural selection.
