they've got a few unmarked BMW estates, if you look carefully in your mirrors at the front grille you can see the strobe lights in there. they've also got 2 focus ST's a black one and a blue one

Three trips down to Exeter this week and everytime I saw folk being pulled, either by the BMW or a silver Octavia :shock:

Are they having a crackdown or is it usually like this? At least 8 cars pulled ...

Yep I see a silver bmw estate everyday on the way to Bristol when you come up behind it you can see a black camera or something on the roof on the left hand side above the tail gate, also the aerials on the roof.

Some times see a blue one as well or a charcol grey vovlvo.

They have had the Vosa car doing checks this week on the M5 and today they were pulling Trucks and Buses into gordano services.

I often pass traffic cops on the motorway at 80, i think as long as you're not being a tit about it they don't really mind

is saw a silver bmw esate matching exactly that description on the a380 on monday, i noticed on the boot door had very faint grey diagonal stripes. Like a standard plod car but in black and white? I thought it looked suspicious and let it do its thing.
