UNmarked Bib

[stackmonkey]

Silver Vectra FJ 03 UBT
M1 northbound between J27 and J29, earlier this evening
for only flashing the blue lights on the grille as I went passed you, instead of pulling me over etc.

[Boosted LS1]

Why the flash then? Aborted emergency or not really bib? Any bib know the plate?

ETA, or were you going a tad to fast?

Possibly... en route from PH show via a friend's house.

5 year old Vectra? I'd report it to the Police.

Why? There's an ATR around Warwick/Leamington, and we saw a battenburg'd Omega on Sunday...

My wife has seen this one around Kodak corner, close to Junc 27. Don't think it is a Notts unmarked car, so I would suspect if it was northbound close to Junc 29 it is Derbys car, as the stretch of M1 from Junc 27 northbound is covered by them

FJ 03 UBT

FJ03UBA is a grey Volvo S40, which let me off a blatant undertake on the A38 just before Christmas.

Derby trafpol really do appear to be operating a very fair and easy going policy to transgressions depending upon the circumstances as they witness the incident directly themselves and see first hand cause & effect.

For them to have pulled over the bloke I undertook would have been too much to hope for though

[BCA]

The dark blue unmarked ST220 is still operating around Cov too, I'd quite like to know why I was followed a week or two back for a good ten mins (I took a very odd route by accident and noticed it following me all the way to my house?!)

a gunmetal grey accord estate FE07*** yeaterday was working on a drug sting with 3 armed respose units on castle boulevard yesterday, seen this car a few times has pulled me before but let me off with a stern warning 80 in a 60!!

The two I've seen around Junction 27 of the M1 are the Black Accord Type R
X???CLE and the Black Volvo Estate ????OAS

[CmdrBond]

Both of those cars are Notts Police. The Accord is based usually in the city, but goes anywhere it is needed and the Volvo is my unmarked Motorway car.

[simonigrale]

I'd better behave myself then !!! LOL

[CmdrBond]

I work in the control room at Sherwood lodge (so you wouldn't actually speak to me) and as part of my area of responsibility is M1 Junc 24-27, but you would speak to my motorway officers.

Don't try and outrun that Volvo, I have been in it on patrol and it is very very quick

[CmdrBond]

Been in the BiB for 2 and a half years now. Been dispatching for just over 2 years - I am a civilian dispatcher rather than a police officer. Will be doing this for a little while longer and then off to Canada to do the same for Calgary police
