Fifth Gear

[8Pack]

Did anyone just see the end clip of film on Fifth Gear CH5?

A Patrol car at high speed in outside lane of motorway, gets a puncture and spins out across all three lanes!

Yup, but you have to give it to them...they were VERY calm about it!

They can't have been that calm, or they wouldn't have spun it. Mind you - company car, immunity from prosecution etc. etc.

Nothing much to get worked up about I suppose.

I would have cacked my Solomons if I had been in there.

I'd seen that clip before. Apparently on the car chase the patrol car used the hard shoulder and some debris penetrated the tyre resulting in the blowout.

What can I say, other than I must be be luckiest Plod alive.
Like Gary player once said,
" The more I practice, the luckier I get "

I imagine that they had actually driven some of the distance prior to the 'blow out' on the Queens Highway.
Maybe the debris was collected there! How many cars do you see on the hard shoulder with shredded tyres? Surely they could not possibly have been driving on the hard shoulder to pick up the problem

Perhaps those officers would have been better off staying on the hard shoulder I obviously was


Wildcat. A question for you.
1. Are you a Wildcat nee Mrs Anna Dokic?

You seem very similar to me

[bluementhol]

What about the run flat tyres. Kind of shags up the stinger doesn't it?

Either way, In the patrol car or in one of the other vehicles nearby! Sca-r-ry!
