"they are illegal because blahh blahh ect ect"
"ok I understand, if I change them when I get home are we ok?"
"sure Il shake your hand on that, be carefull and have a good night"
Second:
2nd incident wasnt so good, stopped got out to here "Oi get over here lad" "your known to us arnt you? I recognise you!"

"you are, we knicked you last week for no insurance"

Definitely, there are good ones and bad ones - got a £30 ticket for having fog lights on whilst stationary by accident, they could have just said turn them off and don't do it again but no no dished out the pink ticket

I got stopped at the top of Dentons green once Matt on the basis that they thought the 2 girls in the back had been kidnapped 2 girls from a hostel had gone missing and they thought these were them, luckily I knew the policeman so he just laughed it off and let us go.

Indeed, which is why I always just lick arse, I feel like a twat but I've got away with silly speeds so it must work.

I was stopped 15 times in about 6 months when i had the corsa. And only once was I done for anything. Most of them were sound but there were some bell pieces.
Been stopped twice since having the golf.
1st time was due to records not being updated and car being shown as reg'd in scotland still. (one of the officers was a right pleb and tried to claim my car smelt of drugs to which his partner said leave it out )
2nd time - i looked too young to own my car apparently

been pulled twice, once by a dick who appeared to be killing time, as soon as an m3 full of chavs came past us he couldn't wait to get away from me, second time nice enough, stopped me for a tail light out and showing as uninsured, sucked up a bit and explained it had just been renewed, did a check and sent on my way.
