City Police - One of my lives used up
Riding home last night, I was passing a bus that started to pull out so I gunned it and had to go onto the hatchings to pass safely.
Just as I passed the bus, a City copper stepped out in the road and signalled me to stop. I pulled over and he said "What is the mortal sin you have just commited" "Entering a hatching" I said (knowing that he did not have a speed gun so there was no way I was going to admit to speeding) "Apart from the moving traffic offence, what is the mortal sin you have just commited" he said At this point I was a little confused as to what he wanted me to say, then I saw his sod-off assult rifle so I thought of saying "f*cking with a copper with a gun" but decided against it. A silence fell and he finally said: "If you are going to speed, with a race pipe and a black visor, whilst being in a hatched line, make sure you look to see if there are any of us (coppers) watching" :-) He then let me on my way..... Top copper, cheers mate! So, they really are not all bad :-) |
A city cop had an assault rifle :shock:
What the hell city is that, even the armed response guys only have submachine guns. Very nice man, still... |
LMAO!
He probably has a bike & rides like a c-nut himself! Top bloke though just scaring you witless to try & make you think twice without bothering about licence etc. FWIW, the highway code also states you have to give way to busses. Pedantic antics over. |

Assuming he mean sawn-off assault rifle (rather than an intimidating assault rifle), well an MP5 could be seen in that light. Pedantic I know, but another of bad spoken language leading to bad spelling - the corruption path probably being having heard sawed used for sawn, then spelling how it sounds. GRRRR David - wishing he could just leave these things alone but............ |

Didn't realise the police were issued with sawn off shotguns - thought that was just Cockney bank robbers :shock: |

Pedantics off. And most London cops who are routinely armed carry MP5s as well as a handgun in the holster. Its the fellas on the rooftops near ambassies whomhave the full on assult rifle with sights etc ;) |

It's a good thing that you didn't have a small plate, or you really would have been in trouble :D
