London Questions
 
What are red Police cars? I thought they were diplomatic, but one looked like he was doing a Traffic stop the other day - Young Black guy driving so I guess it could be Terror related (:lol: - pls don't go off on one :roll:)

Why do scooters have millions of plastic tabs attached to their bike?

Why did the Italian registered naked MV racing me this morning have such a gorgeous pillion, just like most Italian bikes :smt060

Red cops are usualy DPG or armed response but they will still pull you out of boredom
Plastic tabs? Never noticed then tbh.
Cos she fell off the back of mine and the slow eye-tie bike behind had a result when she was thumbing a lift.
:D

I thought the red police cars were city police or something and a different force to the met. I am very suggestable though.

Plastic tabs? Erm..... Are they little scooteer cling-ons?

The pillion was actually me dressed up for my cabaret.

Red are generaly SO cars and most if not all are armed to the teeth (if you get to have a look as some of the toys in the boot /slobber!)

Are you sure you want to admit to that? because I so WOULD!!!!

This red Police needs to be answered, because they defo are not City. I refuse to resort to Google when I've got the .org ;)

They definitely are armed vehicles. I thought they were quick response units of some description.

They are city police, which is a different force to mine.
