Have hit a pheasant and a fox, not at the same time, and you know about it. You would think that a person would set alarm bells ringing. Bet they didn't want to stop after realising what they had done more like.

i remember hitting a cone on a track day. slight orange mark on the reg plate as i was only doing about 5mph, post-spin (messed up a spot of drifting )... the shudder through the car made me panic tho... thought i'd really done some damage... so I'd imagine that running someone down should be pretty noticeable!!

"Look at the Police car in the picture!!!! K reg Sierra! Strathclyde Police must have a great budget!"

Must've been an off day the cameraman caught them. Strathclyde has some of the meanest cars on the beat. For example the local undercover car is a black Merc, brand new. They also have 7 series BMW's (marked) and loadsa Freelanders.
Make no mistake Strathclyde have some serious hardware. Nice to see our tax money going to good use.

Having said that they still haven't nailed me. (touching all wood in sight)
