    Bearing in mind that speeding is dangerous ...

    Footage from a cop car going through an estate in the middle of the day.

    A guy goes past them, in the opposite direction, on a 'Blade, not wearing a
    helmet. So they turn the car round to nick him, but by the time they've
    done a 3-pointer he has vanished.

    They then drive around the estate looking for him ... not chasing him mind,
    because they've no idea where he is ... just looking for him.

    Looking for him at 50mph+, going between 2 rows of parked cars on a housing
    estate in the daytime.

    Just out of interest, how fucked would they have been if they'd managed to
    knock somebody over while doing that?

    FWIW they caught the bloke and he was charged with riding without a helmet.
    Another master criminal safely locked up then.

    Did he deliberately try to lose the police? If so I'm not surprised they
    went after him. He'd probably have got off with just a bollocking had he
    stopped right away.
    The police must have been thinking - "What other reasons might he have for
    not wanting us to stop him?" - no tax, insurance, MOT, perhaps he had just
    stolen the bike?

  4. It's interesting to note that the Police car that plowed into the bakc
    of a car in Kent killing it's occupants has not made the news...
