I was followed by an unmarked volvo all the way to bloody work this morning. The arseholes followed me 15 miles. It took my an extra 20 minutes to get to work today as I had to do the speedy limit. What was the point of f**king following me the stupid twats. Last month I was pulled over by an unmarked volvo for having neon washer jets (which I have now removed), I take it these w**kers have nothing better to do

I know there only doing their job but I think it was pointless as they could have been out preventing a serious crime. Me doing 40mph in a 30 limit is not that serious

This happened to me the other day. They were in an unmarked Mondeo. Good job i clocked them. They followed me 20 odd miles then just fucked off on a roundabout. The thing was, there was cars doing 40 - 50 in a 30 zone yet they picked on me

Holly, the speed limits are there for a reason really. You have gotta think, if it was one of your kids hit by a speeding car

It seems if the police see a modified car they make a bee line for it and I think it's not far.

I believe they have been waiting for a chance to get you down a back road and bum you.

I also have a clean licence, but it is just frustrating as everyone tends to speed slightly but the traffic police do thed to pick on modified cars. For example my boyfriend had a modified car and he was pulled over 4 times in one night for no apparent reason !!!

I know several people who have been pulled over in the past 6 months as they have nice cars. In the past the police have told me that they pulled me over before at 2am as I looked like a "girl racer" so I made a complaint to the station as I thought that was unfair.
