Unmarked Police Cars, what ones you know?
Discussion
saw the black evo on abercynon roundabout on friday, about 3 times to be exact. didnt have any marked cars with it or anything, but on the bridge that goes over the A470 (off slip from ponty to cilfynydd), it had 4 tripods on it(2 looking south bound & 2 northbound), with some sort of camera whether it be ANPR or speed detection i do not know. Possibly something to do with the rally but I think its bit far away unless cars were still travelling from cardiff to swansea via heads of the valley.
For the second friday running (yesterday), the cameras on tripods were on the bridge just down from the garage by abercynon roundabout. Seen them late, doin a bit more than 70 MPH, jammed the anchors on, was expecting to get pulled on the roundabout but the copper didnt budge. The evo wasnt on there though but a marked up ST220 instead.
Silver BMW 3330d saloon, reg WX56 something or another, past it by Leigh Delamere heading east and then coming from Swindon the other day I overtook it on the M4 sliproad heading west, it came up behind me VERY fast, i was doing 90 so pulled over and he flew past and put the blues on, lucky escape I'd say but beware
Today i've spotted a new one, on the perch just after the Pyll junction heading west, the black Evo was behind it.

Isn't it funny how when people go on about enforcing speed limits and how (apparently) dangerous it is to have to constantly keep looking at their speedo's to make sure they don't go too fast, but they can manage to spot unmarked police cars out on the road, clock their reg, colour, location, what they've etc etc??
Just a thought.....

seen the unmarked red vectra CN57 JZU in gwaelod-y-garth this week. Also seen a silver mondeo ST 155 CN06 DEU i think it was. it had 3 aerials on top but didnet look like a copper driving it either. cant imagine a traffic cop driving a diesel ST 155, unless its seriously chippped up.
On friday there was an ANPR sting in st mellons but didnt notice any unmarked cars, only 3 or 4 marked up ST220's. are these only used on ANPR duties anymore. only ever see the volvo's and BMW's on motorway duties
