Red Jaguar XE pulled over a few cars in Spencers wood, just off of M4 J11 - three miles cross> spencers wood area.
Don't tell me - on the by-pass where the speed limit drops to 40 (from 70) when approaching the traffic lights from the South.
Must be like shooting fish in a barrel!
The lights always encourage some people to give it some boot to make them too. hehe
Nope on the basingstoke road actually in Spencers wood, not the A33.

YW70 SZV

Caught a Mini Cooper S getting a bit excited with the loud pedal. He looked soooo embarrassed. Young lad so probably shafted on insurance and points etc.

This was junction 4a headed to Farnborough last week.

Rookie mistake I know, but my excuse is that I was driving - no reg to pass on......

New Focus ST Estate - Silver - identifiable by the three pronged aerial middle centre of the roof and the cameras and IR illuminator sunk into the right rear (drivers side) bumper. Also had tints to the back windows.

There are lots of dheads who belt along the road so it would be quite nice for a few of them to have a reality check. Wonder if they could carry on with the fart can exhaust crew.

If you see a newish Silver AMG45 behind you I would let them go & not try to floor it & race them!

Saw an unmarked one the other week at night driving at well in excess of 100mph come blasting by me on a deserted 3 lane motorway (I braked & moved into lane 1 as wanted them to clear past me as they were really travelling at high speed by how quickly they went in my rear view mirror from a dot to a massive blaze of red & blue lights but I was doing way below 70 anyway in a 70 zone so had nothing to worry about).

Their speed was insane they literally disappeared in a few seconds from the horizon!!!

It's properly famous, seems to be scooping 100's of hand-held phone / drug driving plonkers at the moment. The Surrey Road Cops twitter is great, always informative and often quite funny.

That’s where I’ve seen it - seems to be earning its money over the last few weeks

Unmarked grey Transit van on M40 on Thursday evening. Blue lights and sirens blazing. You'd never spot it.

I imagine it'd be a bit of a shock if you came up behind it at high speed though.

I saw two 3 Series yesterday morning just after 10 on the anti-clockwise carriageway of the M25 between J13 and J12.

Must have been a blitz with ANPR as they had both pulled other cars onto the hard shoulder and the first one had an illuminated sign in the back window saying "Vehicle Seized"!

First one waiting for recovery then. A lengthy process. In Surrey, half the traffic contingency wiped out on a probable 2 hour wait for a tow truck.

I’ve seen this in West Sussex and I don’t believe it’s Police. When I saw it, it was 4 up in plain clothes absolutely flying.
