SPEEDING UK

[rabbitbunny1976]

Ive come on here to ask for some advice about an incident my “friend” was involved in recently. He was travelling down a 30 MPH road going around 45-55 (not to sure) as he was driving along he drove past a Puegot 308 Police Car, obviously when he saw the car he slowed down to the speed limit. The coppers had pulled out and obvisouly at this point he assumed he would be getting pulled over and given 3-6 points+ a fine for example. However he just continued to tail him for around 3-5 mins without pulling him over ( the road was straight and was very safe to pull someone over before someone mentions this). I assume he was checking MOT,Tax and insurance. However i was wondering if my “friend” could be sent a NIP for this, aswell as why didnt the copper pull my friend over.

Prepare for your friend to get bent over and entered dry... Or not you, sorry your friend will know within a few weeks.

hahahahaha made me laugh. sound one

Highly doubt it.

have seen a few things online about them being able to send an NIP by just following veichle and checking speed this way? not sure if you have ever heard about this, was my only concern for my friend rlly

He will be fine. You can do a follow check for speed but the speedometer of the police vehicle needs to be calibrated and it's normally only traffic cars that are.
Secondly you have to follow at a set distance , no gaining or falling back from the vehicles you are following.
I'm ex.job or 30yrs

i see thanks for the response. when he was being followed he had told me the copper maintained distance mostly however was occasions where it seemed he was falling back. it was a puegot 308 i believe so not a traffic car? Thanks for good response tho im sure he will be happy to know this.

Why are you coming to ask this for your ‘friend’ What’s it got to do with you?

Just trying to help a friend with ease of mind, not that i am justifying him speeding, its obviously wrong and could end out killing someone. However he knows and has learnt, really just here to help him get some answers to the possibilitys

 

[rabbitbunny1976]

Why though? I don’t get why you’d go to the trouble of making an account to ask a question for a friend. If it was you driving and asking for yourself I’d understand that but asking for a friend doesn’t make sense.

P.s. I just being nosey really

just highly concerned for my “friend” thats all mate p.s. Nws im
the same

 

[rabbitbunny1976]

Why highly concerned? They’ve not murdered anyone. Why such a high level of concern that you needed to join up to ask the question for them.

Summat is afoot here I tell you.

maybe the correct wording would be concerned LOL xd
