My friend some years ago was going up the M5 at night in a new series 6 BMW when he saw flashing lights behind him. Bang goes my licence, he thinks, and prepares to pull over. As he does so the lights disappear. Suddenly he sees a grinning face on the inner lane, sees the tail end of the car dip, and watches it disappear into the distance. He said he didn't think it that unusual except that he was clocking 150mph at the time.

I had a derestricted moped which would do about 55-60 instead of the 35 it was meant to do, one day this police bike came up behind when I was happy going along at 55 and was just about to pull me over when from nowhere another bike went flying past us both and off he went after it, I thought phew that was lucky.

I pulled up onto the drive outside my house and was just getting off, when who should pull up along side me but the police bike, who proceeded to give me a ticket :oops: , he had done a PNC check.


If you were riding on L plates you were lucky to get a ticket.

I think he's embellished that story somewhat.

Blokes embellishing stories about their cars and driving, say it ain't so!

I knew him and the way he drove well ... I have no reason at all to doubt him. :D
