Traffic cops are probably petrol heads too. I remember Clarkson on TopGear talking about testing the DB9 in France, and the cops were beside him telling him to go faster! |

also on top gear james may tested the new bentley in dubai and the cops closed a very long road so he could test the 200mph top speed, but he only went to 180mph... very quickly mind you!!!

Hey congrats Luke. You reached the Senior Member position today like me. I know, I know, sad. I know a guy whose wife used to drive his M5 during the week and was always tailed for miles by cops to see if it would speed. Edited by flyingalexf68 |

You need to get out more ! There is NO revenue generated to Gardai by issuing tickets. And there has NEVER been a case of someone being done like you have said above. There is an expression in the force "The wrong attitude"....... I suspect you would fit right in there. Edited by Rich Guy |

Whats the story with your signature? What speed do you drive at? Its not just speed that kills. Its inappropriate speed, poor driving and not paying heed to the conditions. P.S. Driving for 7 years, 200,000 miles approx. under my belt, NO points, NO accidents, NO tickets (EVER). NO fines at all in fact. I think this is because I have an interest in driving and don't dirve just because I have to like so many people. Edited by flyingalexf68 |
