Spotted 2 new (to me) unmarked plod today:-

Audi A3 - lava grey (looks like very dark purple)

Mazda 6 - all silver

Bounce :bounce1
 
Just an hour ago....A black fireblade 09 reg...Rider in all black leathers and a grey/silver helmet, the only thing that gave the bike away was the very discreet blue lights front and rear.....Maidstone turn off.

Looks like they are upping their game this year.....Bastards.
 
Basically i've pretty much not seen a copper around here all winter, the first sunny day on Monday, I spotted two plod cars in 10 minutes both following sports bikes around the ring road, may be the start of their early season purge on sorned bikes being 'exercised' for the first time!

Shep
 
Certainly must be the start of their season - today's instalment - A249 Detling Hill (M20 Jn 7), a camera van & no less than 5 traffic cars parading north & south in their illuminated finery:mad:!!!!!
 
The police are getting all sorts of cars and bikes these days, you can't tell who's in the car in front or behind.......I was driving down the A1 this week in Hertfordshire towards London, a few marked cars went past with lights and sirens going, next car with lights etc was a 54 reg unmarked Seat Ibiza I think it was.

You will most probably find that was their ANPR and 'Interceptor Team' who go after activations from the reading of the number plates. Nothing more than that most forces now deploy such tactics, if you are road legal, and have no outstanding 'matters' they are very unlikely to bother you.:augie
 
I've seen them pulling drivers a BLACK BMW X5 (I think) and a BLACK Volvo estate.
I've been at the side of the road with them on my RSV a few times.

I reckon they're really hot around here and they need to be. Sometimes I wonder why the British aren't World Champions at EVERY motorsport in the world. Even the middle aged women drive like they're in a Rally where I live.

No offense intended there to the fairer sex: I just wish they'd look in their mirrors.:toungincheek

Part of me is re-assured to know that the 'illegals' out there are being dealt with, albeit slowly. Nevertheless, what would be imaginative, although highly unlikely, is if they actually informed the road user, via roadsign etc, that is what they were doing...then every tom dick & harry would think twice about slamming on their anchors & potentially causing carnage :clap...

They do use their mirrors .... for looking at their hair/ eye's/ mouth and touching up as required.....
