Fucking didnt see a police car lying in wait. literally as i accelerated i saw him n stopped, cudnt of been doing much over the speed limit to be fair, but anyway he knew i was driving like a bit of a dick. so he followed me about 3 miles behind the car behind me. didnt pull me or anythin but scared the living shit into me lol can narr afford three points lol
im guessin i can expect no further action on tht one? he physically cudnt of got my plate :S i cant see how anyway

Nothing will come of it coz they can't prove anything.
They were following you to see how you'd react.
I'm almost on 1st name terms with all the police round here now.

If they want to issue a ticket they can issue a ticket.
If it scared you then it had the desired effect, slow down.
He could get your plate quite easily, I'm sure the car behind wasn't travelling that close.

So either don't speed or don't be surprised when you get followed. You can't have it both ways.

I get followed quite alot, it's just what comes with owning a Modified car I guess, it makes you feel uneasy a bit but at the end of the day I'm completely legal so unless I speed infront of them they can't do shit.

Indeed.
They never pulled you over to give you a lecture/3 points etc. Just be thankful they decided that following you to give you a little fright was an adequate lesson.

As soon as coppers are driving on my ass I just pull over. They either pass and carry on or pull over with me. I hate the mile of being followed, pisses me off.
Then I get the "is this your car?"
