The cop on the bike can't stop him, and doesn't try. They have his plate, just look him up through the DVLA. If they truly wanted to stop him doing a runner, then there would be loads of chatter of reporting where he was, getting a chopper out, setting up road blocks. As it is, the copper just calmly follows him reporting his mistakes, probably enjoying the ride. I can guarantee that over the stretch of that there were probably over 100 cars that though "what a ****" as the unmarked copper went past, how is that a good idea?!
