police driving / parking techniques
So there I was (in my firms diesel transit Torneo, private hire mini bus) looking in Bedford High street for the Nexus club (in the area dirrected to
by the police) at 02:20hrs Saturday morning the 02nd July 2005. I was told that it was down by St Peters Square so it was in that area that I was
looking. (turned out that it was at the other end) I could not see it on my first pass so I proceeded round the Square for a second pass. As I exited
the square back into the high street A police Omega came charging down the High street, so I pulled over to the Left to get out of its way. The omega
passed me the plled up 4 carlenghts ahhead, the officers decamped and chased some people over the river bridge (southerly dirrection). Then a whole
load of other police cars came down the high street and joined in. THE round St peters Square came ANOTHER police Astra, at a very high rate of speed.
As this car came into the High street it was either in a 4 wheel drift OR a 4 wheel slide (this was known because of the squealing noise that the
tyres were making over the top of the siren). The Driver PC !!() (have got the the number but if you are clever you could work it out) dicided to use
the NS rear of my transit to park the OS front of her Astra.
Then SHE decided to carry on with what she was doing, reversed up and drove OFF.
Anyway, before I was breathlised by PC ^£$ he apparently allowed her to carry on driving, having told her that she was suspended from driving with
immediate effect, albiet back to the nick to finish her shift. (Also I'm not aware that she was breathalised).
Saturday morning, our mechanic has a look at the back of the transit and want to put a comic remark beside the damage the suggestion were as the poll
(but the boss wouldn't let him).
have you got any others?
My neck feels a bit stiff today!

Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
