Was watching this show l think it was last week when that short haired officer pulled over a driver for having the child not buckled up in the back seat, apperntely not hers
Eventually she called the mother to come pick up the child, the attitude from the mother F#$k off pi$$ off, dam l remember when l was a kid if we ever swore at an officer we would of copped it.
I was thinking the officer would of loved to turn the cameras off and give them both a flogging.
Scary part about this show is that these people are allowed to breed :

The show needs to be renamed to Bogan Patrol.

Gone are the days where you'd get a touch up if you were mouthy to plod. That turkey trying to snatch his licence back from the cop should have spent a night in the cells.

Whats the hit rate. She gets hit alot ? or she hits alot ?.
She seems like a bit of a nasty one . but like mentioned before dealing with that chicks mother the other week and that little ******** that snatched his license back . She also seems like a saint not to pistol whip them both .

With that fella that did the runner in the falcon wagon . Did anyone notice the cop slam the door on his head a drop his knee on two his head a couple times while the fella's head was on the road . It looked remotely satisfying

I just can't believe the clowns on this show. And this is only a very small percentage that police have to deal with day in and day out.

He deserved another knee after that failed breath test.

Shows what a hard job the Police have, I wouldn't have their patience when dealing with fools. :jab:

Although it is no excuse to why it happens, but it makes you understand why some times coppers may appear to have the wrong attitude to things minor, look at the f'en tools they have to deal with on a regular basis and the bu77s5it excuses they hear all the time.

Then World's Wildest Police Chases came on right afterward and kicked off with the 1997 bank robbery shootout, two guys armed with AK47s in a huge standoff with police. Made NZ and Australian police shows look a bit lame haha.

I actually don't mind the show. Basically just dealing with our TMU, would love a US style cops type show to ride along with our uniform. But it would have to be edited and censored as the Australian public are not as understanding or supportive of their police.

He got one guy for doing 110, bang on 70 over.... automatic loss of licence and the car impounded. Just disgraceful. These officers are doing the community/police relationship no good. Yet they wonder why people are losing respect for the police.
If you've had your window broken by some knob doing 110 over gravel in a roadworks before you would have very happy to see that happen it happens to me all the time, I have no respect for people that do that through roadworks

Theres 2 episodes of this on right now on channel 7 for those who are interested (March 24)

1. Police vehicle spots car doing donuts and then the car speeds off once he spots the police vehicle. He darts across the wrong side of the road road into a side street trying to hide behind some vehicle but doesn't fool anyone.

19 year old in a Nissan Silvia (Spelling?) with a suspended licence for to many demerit points and driving an unregistered & unroadworthy car.

This one is pretty funny...

2. That blonde haired cop (Meagan) pulls over a car for a routine licence check about 30m from his house. The guy that's been pulled over says he doesn't have his licence on him and it's suspended for not displaying P plates.

Then this guys brother spots them and comes out from his house and talks to his brother in the car saying he is going to get in alot of crap saying that Meagan probably won't go easy on him etc until Meagan decides to run the rego of the brothers car parked in the driveway of his house.

She finds that the car in the driveway is unregistered. He doesn't know and claims it's his sisters car. He is then hit with a $500 fine.

3. P plater car is pulled over for doing 70km/h over (130km in a 60 zone) and is told he has to find other transport or walk home because his car is being towed under the hoon laws. With that speed he loses his licence for 12 months.

He isn't happy.

4. Another P plater is pulled over by police after doing 112km/h on what looked to be a freeway or highway and is booked at 62km/h over as what would probably be a 100 or 110km/h limit is a 40 or 50km/h limit due to roadworks going on.

He isn't happy at all claiming he needs his car for work and that it was a mistake, saying that it's bullsh*t.

He then proceeds to call his mum for the police officer to have a chat with and beg for him to keep his licence, but the police offer doesn't budge and that his car will be impounded for 2 days and he loses his his licence for 12 months.

Then on top of all that 3 of his tyres are bald, making his car unroadworthy!

Tonight's show was good, these people don't even know what's on the end of their nose most of the time, let alone what speed they're doing, or if their license is suspended or not.......of course they only pick out the 'good ones' for TV, but far out it's embarassing to think that these muppets are everywhere!!!

How crazy were the two brothers with the sheriff's warrants.....one brother had about 28, and the other one had 71!!!!!! Pity the officer couldn't arrest him for it......my taxes go towards paying for the sheriffs to chase these lowlifes up!!!
