Or would you admit to being a PH'er if asked?

Everytime I see a Traffic car on the Motorway these days I think "I wonder if that is TonyRec or No discretion etc" And if pulled over, In the course of conversation I would probably ask if the officer was a PH'er.

Just curious if this has happened yet, as it must only be a matter of time..

I've never stopped a PH...

I have however stopped many FASTCAR/MAXPOWER types or those with 'suchatown-CRUISE.com' in their back windows..

Have you ever seen a PH sticker/badge while on duty?

If you did see someone you knew from here, would you be tempted to pull them 'for a laugh'?

Also, if you did pull someone , for lets say..a dirty license plate or something and it turned out you knew them from here...would you more tempted to give a warning than a ticket.?

Just curious, this is not an effort to bait you into anything

I know if i were you, i would find it hard to not be lenient in that position!

Never seen a PH sticker..on or off duty...

I think identity denial would probably be my best policy

Me neither, although i do look.

In fact, if i saw a car with a sticker on i might stop it for a chat.

Willcrash has a sticker on his car but ive never stopped him yet, come to think of it....Oggs has one too.

They are the only 2 ive seen.

I might however, put one in the rear window of our brand new unmarked 5 series that we got the other day.

This is one from a fellow PHer (and FChatter), but when he first got his Ferrari, he was driving back across the M62 at about 60 trying to sort the stereo controls out, when he got pulled over with the blue lights and everything.
He got out of the car and the officer said,
"Hi, my name is....., I post on Fchat and PH as well, thought I recognised the car, are you enjoying it!!"

Turns out the BiB had seen the car going the other way on the Mway and had put the blue lights on and headed to the next junction and back up the Mway to catch up and say hello!!

PH Spirit is well and truly alive!

That's good to hear. I'm hoping our first meeting will be in a pub or a curry house, rather than your strolling up behind my car and noticing the PH stickers.

An outrageous idea. Propensity to make progress increases significantly when spotting another car with a PH sticker.

Thanks, just had a look. I'd like something for the number plate. Maybe saying this:

PH Boosted LS1 PH.

If we did this we would know who we all are I shall do it over the hols.

When I had a set of plates made up I actually had

"DAZREN on www.pistonheads.com"

Written along the bottom of the rear plate (Together with the St Georges Cross instead of the Euro nonsense on the left side of the plate). Got them from:

www.fancyplates.com

PS - Mike, I'll sort you out a run in the Turbo when we meet up for the next PH Bristol meet.
