unmarked police cars

Fair play to the guys in the marked Disco on the M23 this morning I didn't know they could go that fast without spitting there engines out

Just a shame some people still failed to see them

A dark grey BMW 330d had pulled over a Disco 4 on the A34 southbound yesterday morning just north of Winchester.

I would imagine a fairly "interesting" discussion ensued, as we weren't hanging around and the Discovery had gone past us about 5 minutes earlier well into 3 figures.

Yesterday evening M3 junction 7, a new model silver VW Passat Estate, heading into Basingstoke with all the Christmas lights going.

Ambulance "Code Black" Responder.

A senior medical technician, usually of the rank of Doctor, responding to a local emergency.

Not disagreeing, but I thought doctors had Green lights?

Some do, some don't.

Hems is just one example of doctors who don't.

Coming along the Lightwater bypass tonight, I was making decent progress when out of nowhere a dark BMW 5 series (I think) arrived behind me lit up like a Christmas tree! Cue tightening of bottom cheeks, only for it luckily to drive on by and go along the M3 in front of me. Reg was something along lines of GX61

I hydrolocked my old 306 Gti engine in that ford years ago Almost impossible to tell how deep it is until to you get stuck.

I'm assuming that no one would bring this foolish action up repeatedly to the driver every time he gets in a car?
It definitely doesn't seem like the kind of mistake that would lead to weeksmonths of piss taking from his colleagues?

See the Tweet last night from Surrey road cops..

Stolen car boxed in, turns out a local Bobby was driving it back to the pound after it had already been found..

Stuff like this would rarely get mentioned again, blows over very quickly ------------- oh hang on, haha, they won't hear the last of it for some time.

Black Focus 5 door on the A331 at the M3 junction r/bout early this afternoon with the blues & twos going.

Certainly rocking the unassuming laid bare look, running no alloys and just bare steelies with no caps.

I was given the 'slow down' blues throuh the grille on the A331 late last night by what I think was a dark coloured Kia hatch. I was admittedly over the limit but keeping good lane discipline.

[Lazadude]

Dark green/Dark blue Volvo estate with Blues and Twos came flying past at London bound Fleet M3 services, all the way up to the road works, then turned them off and slowed down to 45? (Cue every muppet doing an indicated 40...)

Was three up, with what looked like civi clothes.

Couple of days ago on the M25 morning jam between 10 and 11...
First a pretty dirty, tatty 2007 Focus ST with lights and sirens, then a grey Mazda 3 and new Seat Ibiza Cupra in silver, followed by a blue previous model Octavia estate and something else hoofing up the hard shoulder. What was all that about?! What units use those cars?

Could be any number of units or police force. I'd hazard a guess at the sneaky beaky squad....maybe

There was quite a few of them, I was on a stop on the opposite carriageway to the OP, it was the usual stuff

[Charlie1986]

14 plate Audi A6 in grey doing a stop on the m23 with 3 other vehicles looked like 3 traffic and one airport , kind of ruined my comute home tonight.

[QuantumTokoloshi]

The grey 3 series estate single crew, a few minutes ago sitting at junction 6 with the Christmas tree lights going. The kids waved but you were looking down.
