Anyone watching police interceptors?

Obviously the traffic police with that biker don't like filtering

Bit excessive but can't blame them I suppose if he put his two fingers up.

i didnt see the footage but heard the end bit and wondered if they were being a bit harsh.. he may have got away with the two fingers if hadnt been such a numptie

Missed the actual footage but caught the ticking off. If as alledged he did unertake at 80mph whilst giving the two fingered salute then it probably wasn't the smartest of moves.

Still, as we all know, you don't have to be an idiot on the road to get into situations. I received a torrent of abuse this morning from an cage driver who was rather peeved about my refusal to exceed the speed limit. I'm sure he would have been happier if I hooned past him at 100mph, not.

No pleasing some people.

The unmarked Police car was tramming along at 80 and the biker undertook them then gave the 2 finger salute, brain of britain, he isn't.

Then whineing about how threatend he felt because the officer was raising his voice, take your lid off then numbnuts.

Just saw it, mostly deserved what he got. Would of been interesting to see the incident, his claim of the copper closing the gap etc.

Does it matter if the Police did close the gap? It's like the copper said to him, he didn't see him till the last minute because he wasn't expecting it.

I was always taught to expect the unexpected. The copper's lack of observation is more than likely the cause of the rider's annoyance, hence the hand gesture. I think it was over the top to hit him with the public order offence as there's no way they felt threatened or distressed by it. If they did they ought to reconsider their chosen careers, as police work can require you to be a little bit more robust than that. I think the careless driving offence was a bit too much too, as he was probably taking more care with his driving than the copper.
