Traffic cops EVERYWHERE in aberdeen?!?

BEWARE!

Mates have been texting me randomly to say they have seen coppers everywhere. Well in fact not just coppers, mobile units too.

Ellon rd, king st, prom, union st, queens rd, near fitty and my mate just saw them and thinks he got done at thainstone!

Must be a mega crack down!!

Mate saw one car getting lifted to a flatbed. Must be for tax?

Thought i better warn some others if you never knew.

Chop

yeah spotted a new shape discovery with 5 coppers in it pulling over a flatbed truck on the boulevard earlier today, surprised it needed that many in one car though!

They're doing an excellent job under difficult circumstances and I really can't think of a better way for them to spend OUR money...

Chop

More likely to be for licence or insurance.

I've got no problem with coppers out looking for people speeding in town.

Superheats my urine when you see them skulking around a quiet, smooth, junction-free section of dual carriageway though. That'll be the A96 and A90 then. s.

There was a camera van at the end of the straight just outside of Elrick in the morning and a police car sitting in a lay-by off the 50mph zone of the dual carriageway on the way out to Westhill in the evening. They must be short of funds for the Christmas party...

Would be refreshing if they policed the gawdawful lane discipline on the 3 or 4 miles of DUAL-CARRIAGEWAY between Kingswells-Westhill,(Why do 99% of the road users going to Westhill think that the r/h lane "is the only lane"), rather than worrying about who is doing 55 in a 50.

heh, my daily commute. It's not undertaking if you simply stay in the left lane until the Westhill roundabout

More useful than the camera van outside Elrick would be to teach the schoolkids to use the bloody crossing, cleaning the gene pool has never been so tempting (or easy).
