But in fairness, we can all see why Fro 
I get pulled at least once a month for speeding or 'random checks'. It's definetly down to having a modified car, my Fiesta was standard for a couple of months and I didn't get pulled/followed or nothing

I was asked if I had been smoking weed down the embankment in Bedford this year, they searched my car and didn't find anything, they also checked my pupils. It did smell like weed though in the area. Strange that the old couple in the car in front of me drove off pretty quickly when the coppers slammed on there breaks and turned around.

We went to a business park once in my mate's car, not knowing that the place was currently being robbed so they searched our car 
They had an estate with a dog in the back and everything

That's not very good.
You'd have thought an alarm would go off or something.

Well they did a good job of breaking stuff by the sound of it then. At least they've got security now 
The place I used to work has been broken into a few times because people try to nick the fags 
They've put big bars on the inside of the back door now.

Fair play in my first year of driving I didn't get pulled once. Been pulled twice in my second year, first time, one of those transit connect police vans followed me out of a car park near the local canal, pulled me, checked my license over the radio, is the car urs in ur name etc? whose your insurer? then a BMW 3 series went speeding past full of chavs at which point he couldn't get rid of me quick enough. He pulled them down the road.
2nd time on my way to work, got pulled for a tail light out, nice enough though, the one commented the condition of the car otherwise and would have bought my alloys if he could lol.

been pulled twice, first i was doing 50 in a 30, but as he was pulling out of a junction behind me he didn't know exactly how quickly i was going, just told me to slow down etc, started talking about insurance ( i was 17 at the time and had not long passed, he had a son the same age)
second time it was late at night and i was taking several friends home from a party (obviously not all at the same time) and the same policeman kept seeing me and eventually pulled me. pulled me over and asked me what i was up to, asked my name i told him and he asked me if i knew someone else, which turned out to be my dad (who is an ex-policeman) and said"ah right, on your way then"
since i bought the teg i keep getting policemen coming over to chat if i'm parked up somewhere, do a PNC check and then fuck off, got searched for drugs once on a friday night, but there had been some lads in a car about 50 yards away that had been smoking weed as the area stunk of it 
last policeman i spoke to was one of my dad's best mates, used to work for honda in the early 90s and was interested in seeing my car, even mentioned he'd seen the car on youtube, fortunately i hadn't been doing anything illegal in said video
