@Horleytwit @SurreyRoadCops You ARE a twit! Police should be catching burglars not harassing drivers. Speed doesn't kill, just bad driving.

i wouldn't have thought so seen as they were carrying out their duties.
Makes no difference to dangerous driving. If it was dangerous for anyone to drive 150 there at that time, it was dangerous for everyone, the law is very clear in that respect. Without any other aggravating factors to make it dangerous driving, the police have either acted unreasonably by charging with DD instead of speeding or the drivers of the cars following also should have been arrested and thier cars siesed.

Police drivers go through a lot of training to be at the standard they are, they also have sirens and all of that which makes it a lot more safe for them to travel at high speed than a random member of the public.
The law is very clear that no of those factors make any difference to determining what is dangerous driving.Police drivers go through a lot of training to be at the standard they are, they also have sirens and all of that which makes it a lot more safe for them to travel at high speed than a random member of the public.
Nor does the fact that the person charged was in a very high performance no doubt with capabilities far beyond that of the police cars.
