Thought I post this.

Just been stopped by the police for driving fast and being alittle naughty (nothing too bad at all, spot of undertaking!)

Policeman followed and put his blues on and pulled the wife and myself over, he was very polite, a very brief asking me not to do it again etc and that was that.

Very pleased he dealt with it like that, as you hear or watch the police giving people a right ticking off when they clearly know their in the wrong, this chap in my opinion (and wifes) dealt with me in a very rational manner.

(Personnal I blame the Mini I was driving for being able to go roundabouts so quickly..!!!)

I had a mini several years ago and had forgotten how well they cornered until I followed one the other day. Had me grinning, it did.

If he had been polite and couteous but booked you, would you have the same opinion?

I suspect not, though he may have been annoyed at the time. TrafPol don't usually bother unless you are significantly over (IMLE anyway),

Towman of course I wouldn't and I wouldn't have posted..!!! (stupid question!!)

Reason for the post was that he told me off I got the point and will not do it again (being realistic for a while at least), he didn't issue a producer etc or anything else.

Anyway only reason was to say Mr Policeman lastnight used common sense and yes I'm pleased he did. thumbs up for the police from my point of view.
