Oh dear!

H&S advisor, speeding, with an MOT failure chipped windscreen, passenger ( yeah right) filming it!

Also looked like an indicated 96mph, so realistically about 90mph.

So, to re-cap; he filmed himself doing 90mph with an MOT failure car and sent the video to the Mail, not the sharpest knife in the drawer is he?

also

“I was in the fast lane doing on overtake, and before I knew it, they were 10ft behind me,” said the driver.

so let's see he's not practicing safe driving by observing his surroundings and he doesn't know that there's no 'fast lane'... add into the fact he's an 'elfnsafety bod makes it three strikes and out. tt

His last quote is brilliant....

“I do not want to think what would’ve happened if they had come off at that speed, they would’ve been gone.”

Yeah - probably by you following them with one Hand on your phone and peering round the massive stone chip you !

Isn't it only an MOT failure when it gets tested for the MOT?
Other than that, complete t**t.

Oh and not "the Mail", but The Birmingham Mail. [/pedant]

I predict he's got a REALLY annoying voice.

Let's hope we never get to find out...

Jeesh, from that clip you couldn't even tell they were police bikes. What does he hope to prove exactly?

Several things spring to mind:

1. He is a t**t
2. He has filmed himself driving at license removing speeds
3. He has done so one handed

Well leaving the guy who filmed it aside, and using the same logic applied to Joe public, should these cops not be in trouble here?

It generally accepted speeding is wrong and doing a ton or over is a bad idea as the rest of the traffic is at 80 or lower usually. Now add in these are bikes, not cars. No blues and two so not as obvious to shazza whos more interested in facebook than her rear view mirror. Also when shazza changes lane into there path since its a bike the brakes aren't as good as a cars either. If you come off at that speed your dead, end of.

So there is some truth in this one. Is it not a danger to other road users? Common sense suggests at 100mph (if indeed they were doing that), blues should be on at least.
