Police and Oversteer

[AlexHillTVR]

I had a bit of a moment this morning on the way to work when I nearly got very out of shape off a roundabout in the pouring rain. My fault I confess, I wasn't overly concentrating and got on the throttle a bit too much.

Thing is, there was a police car behind me at the time. I thought "well I'm definitely going to get pulled over for that" so I just continued along at about 30 a bit aprehensively, just waiting. They followed me for about a mile and then turned off into a side road. I was really surprised.

What's the general police stance on this? I must admit I do it for fun rather often when it's wet out but this morning was just genuine 'not thinking'. Did they leave me alone because I obviously wasn't that stupid to do it infront of them on purpose??

I wouldn't call what I did driving too fast for the conditions haha. It was more the trying to get going too fast for the conditions whilst not straight ;-)
