That will vary with their training.

What they do?-- Waste petrol and shine the seats of their pants!

What can they do for me?-- 'Pull' obvious scrotes and not go for the safe pull....Oh and a little civility wouldn't go amiss either.biggrin

Yellow and black battenburg.....

What can they do? Enforcement-wise nothing. Otherwise, they'll make sure you're safely removed from the motorway, whether it's a simple breakdown or a live lane RTC. And other stuff like clearing debris from live lanes before people damage themselves.

What would you like them to do?

Well, that'd be nice, but you can't account for all idiots.........

My theory is the people who really slow down and won't go past, even at 60, are guilty of something - no tax/insurance etc.

What we need is unmarked plod following a HATO - easy pickings......

You might get a bottle of water!

I've given tea/coffee in the cold dark winter, but that's probably against H&S rules.......
