Guess who was back again this morning? Tugged someone at Pyecombe (but was facing northbound).

If their is any Sussex Traffic Police looking at this can you pass a message to the local Chichester/Selsey/Bognor non Traffic plod,especially the Hyundai panda driver, The message is.. "When it's dark or poor visibility TURN YOU f  kING LIGHTS ON.Lead by example please.

Dark blue E60 tourer heading into Portsmouth (must have been some sort of incident as I met several cars heading that way with lights on) at 2am at Mach 2 down the M27.

Joined the A3(M) northbound at Waterlooville mid-afternoon today, directly behind a dark 1-series with blues active. The flashing lights looked to be embedded within the rear clusters, making it a tricky spot when not on a call.

Saw Focus ST Black with grey stripes. Headlights flashing and a little blue beacon on top fly down the A24 yesterday. Very discreet.
Also saw an silver Audi A4 3.0TDI quattro Saloon in SE trim in Brighton yesterday having pulled a car. PV59 WDR. Blues were all incorporated into existing lighting units, making it very hard to spot.

I think they must swap the plates and tax discs on the Audis but can't confirm that...

I see the 2 silver ones fairly regularly, they are probably Brighton based, and I'm think the last 3 letters of the reg changes subtly every so often.

Thats so sneaky! I've seen them in Crawley and Brighton before, more so in Brighton though. Also forgot to mention the grey BMW X5 that pulled me over last week, didn't get a reg though, just noticed it was the 3.0d not the 3.0sd. Easily outrun in other words.

They've been getting loads of motorcyclists though! FUBAR said: I'm sure they do.

Old tricks are the best ones!!!
