Default I followed a police car

Last night I followed a police car around town for a good 10 minutes. He was driving at about 20, clearly cruising and looking suspicious so I felt it was my duty to keep an eye on things

Do you think he would have been as worried with me following as I am when they follow me?

OK - So I was bored. Initially we seemed to be going the same way so I decided to just follow them. You never know I might have seen some action

I've followed them down main roads close to three figure speeds. Just try slip out of view from time to time just in case they're running a VASCAR check on you.

You should have tried flashing your lights at them to see if they would pull over!!

Default Re: I followed a police car

i was on my way to tescos one night and had my leds on, and a polic car was comin out from a junction and pulled out behind me, didnt think anything of it because it had happened plenty even with the leds on and nothing happened, but it followed me right into tescos car park and pulled up next to me, i thought whatve i done, and she said my light illegal whilst moving blah blah blah, then turned and said "that your car?" and i said "yea, why" and funily enough she said "just wondering cos its a nice car for a young lad to have, thought it was yours dads at first"
