One week he did give a drunk guy a lift home, but i agree definately a ladies man.
I don't even have a TV and I managed to catch some of it! Good job I don't watch stuff like that too often: makes my blood boil.
What are the odds of getting your neck broken in the wheel of a tractor, on a clear 2-mile straight road?
Reminds me of an incident earlier this evening in the Wedge: there I was minding my own business when Saxo-boy came hurtling up behind me (I'd say 60+ in a 40), sat on my tail for a bit then zipped past and proceeded to not bother indicating for a roundabout. Exiting the roundabout I was on his tail, could see the road was empty (couple of hundred yards of wideness, then a lefthander into a built-up with crossing islands). So I hoofed it past him, missed third gear twice but still stayed in front as he wound up the spring (mind he DID have a go at preventing me getting back onto the correct side of the line - twat).
So I brake into the built-up, but of course he HAS to show his balls are bigger than mine so he overtakes an entire line of cars... on the OTHER SIDE of all the crossing islands.
Some people are accidents waiting to happen: wish I had a Warrant card...

Respect to the senior copper captioned as "Head of Traffic, South Yorkshire" who looked and sounded genuinely enthusiastic as he talked about the thrill of biking on the open road. If only everyone responsible for devising and enforcing traffic law in this country was a petrolhead like him.

Something badly wrong with the traffic car video kit in the first clip. Digital speed showed 120-125mph, following a bike in lane 3. Bike on tail of a car. Other cars and lorry in lanes 1 and 2.
All holding roughly the same pace. How? I've noticed that before.
****************
Thought for the day.......I used to say ex police cars were good value. Now I understand why! After all that abuse, they must be held together with filler, Araldite and paint!
****************
I, too, recognise one of those officers. I accidentally trod on his white cap. Ooops.
