Spotted this vehicle charging down the outside lane with flashing blue lights on vehicle and trailer. No markings for police on it.



Anyone got an idea who/what it is?

I googled and found a couples of links from spots in same location from 2013/14 but no one knew what it was all about. The one I saw was driving solo, the older spots included a convoy of vehicles.

Any boys in blue have a clue?

A fair description of the truck I'd say? It looks like a Ford F150 that is not generally sold in the the UK but is very common in America?

Anyway, any ideas what it may be up to and who operates it?!

it's used by THEM

they were spotted out and about during the london riots
Might be being a bit thick here, but what is it's application?

Above post is spot on if that is what it is, doesn't look much use in a riot though?

Also it's been repeatedly sighted around the M/A42 'making progress' northwards with lights flashing.
