Default Re: 140 mph Police "Follow"

"The method of riding was considered so extreme by investigating officers from the Sussex Road Policing Unit that normal stopping procedures were not considered appropriate. Instead, the rider was safely tracked using unmarked cars and an unmarked motorcycle in order to gather evidence to support a prosecution."

Think the sussex road policing unit need their water supply checking - seems to be a testosterone contamination.

Yeah, when you've clipped a Parisian underground train you know you're in trouble.

to be realistic ,why was there a need to follow for so long.There was enough evidence after a few minutes to nick him,with out putting all those people at risk.
I was surprised that the vid got out until I clicked on the second link ,to see that it was an official police link.
Seggens(soz mate) got berated around the world for his vid and it was no where near as dangerous as that cops riding.
Igot the impression that "I,m gonna have you no matter what sonny"was going round inside his helmet

Supposedly they had lots of complaints from the public about the rider as that was 'his commute' and rode like that every day. So they put an unmarked bike on his route to follow him

In my opinion the police rider was much more careless than the rider infront, he had several moments in that video where it appeared the rider being persued had none.

Just looked like a fun hoon to me
