Proper Police or Trafpols?
Discussion
Whilst dealing with a motorist on the side of the road i could hear people shouting.As i looked up and from around the corner a man and woman appeared. The woman was upset and shouting...in fact they both were.
The man then walked off and the woman came up to me and said," are you the proper Police or Traffic Police".
I thought to myself....how bloody rude before i replied, "Traffic Police".
She then walked off
(I did smile tho)

My shift have had 6 arrests in the last 7 days, recovering 2 stolen cars, 2 burglars (with property)1 who was wanted for theft offences and another for affray.
Not bad, and id like to see how the local Police station compares with the quality of arrests.
We are as they say, multi-talented and can deal with all sorts because apart from dealing with petty traffic offences we have the time to target and seek out and more importantly deal with incidents thoroughly.

Maybe they meant 'proper' Police or Transport Police?
On a slightly different tack it does amuse me to see all the 'we want fewer cameras, more trafpol' comments on here: - as opposed to all the 'haven't the effing police got better things to do, like catching real criminals?' comments that you would have been reading had PH existed a few years ago.

I had that the other day by a stroppy(***), woman.
Stopped her doing 75 in a 40 and she was taking the absolute p*ss with her driving and her manners.
She asked me why i wasnt out there catching burglars and rapists to which i replied, "ive tried that and sadly im no good at it but im great at catching dangerous drivers and people who do 75 in 40 limits".
Sometimes you have to deal with people in different ways that you are used too.

If I did a Mungo I would like to work in either:
Traffic (cos I like cars!)
Tactical Firearms Unit (I used to do a little Police Pistol)
Or the Inspector Morse Dept that busies itself with drinking bitter and poking around Oxford back streets for murder clues like some big crossword puzzle. I am certainly grumpy enough to qualify
(Vice sounds quite exciting, but I bet the novelty wears off and the people you nick are even lower down the foodchain.)
