Police Write Off impounded Mitsu Evo V11...

[csv8]

"A pair of constables in the Hales area of England will be getting quite the pull-through this week, we imagine. After stopping this yellow Mitsubishi Evo VII for 'driving erratically', the driver blew over the limit and, as is the law in the UK, the car was impounded on the spot.

Now, the usual procedure is to wait for the calvary to arrive in the form of a flat-bed tow truck. Sensible, yes? Not for our fearless crime-fighting duo, who gallantly volunteered to drive the Evo back to the impound yard themselves. Big mistake. Huge.

The pair crashed the Evo - at what appears to be high speed - through a fence and ended up in a front yard. Neither copper was hurt, and no one outside was, either."

So not 10 years ago I must have been thinking of something else. But still re-heated...yes I wonder why...how utterly bizarre.

[Nikked]

everything is new news on facebook, my guess is Top Gears scribe stumbled on the "report".

So what happened to the cops, did they get hit with the full force of the law like the rest of us would...'speed kills' remember idiots!

I hope so. I also hope that they had to pay for the replacement cost of the car, and a few thousand extra pounds as punitive damages.

Were overdue for the Policeman who pulls over someone for not wearing their seatbelt then gets given a fine in return from the OHS officer for getting out of the car without his high vis vest on BS story from a mate of a mates biological half great grandfathers twice returned nephew in law.

So the driver was forced by law to hand his car over to hoons, who wrecked his car. Top Gear probably being used to tell the current recruits "do not do this".
