I was at a mates house near to Windsor, and by the time i left to come home, there were sh!t loads of people leaving from the royal Wedding.
I took the back routes to get to the M4, and once on it there were hundreds of police officers heading back to the thier stations (I guess).
I could see there were a few behind me, and so thought nothing it. A few miles later, the cops had turned off, and i because i had to get back pretty sharpish, i started to boot it.
A lil further up the road, there was a group of cars in the fast lane but weren't overtaking. It really bugs me when people don't stay in the left lane when they're no over taking.
Eventually the group moved over and i sped up from 65 ish to 80ish. Once in front i could see why they were going slow.
There was a cop car in the far left lane. 
I went past it a 80, and though CRAP !!!! 
He didn't do any thing, so i slowed to 75ish, and carried on. I over took a truck and got back into the slow lane, when i saw in my rear view mirror he booted up to me with his blue lights on.
We stoped and he had a moan about my snooper, and the fact that over taking a police car on the motorway is taking the piss
I tried to blag that i was going with the flow of traffic, but he wasn't buying it because ther was no one infront of me
After he told me off he started to have a chat with me on the hard Shoulder about modded cars, and what sort of proplem they give him, with strobe lights in grills and neon washer jets, undeclared mods, etc.
I simply informed that not all every one is like that....just chavs
He was actually an alrite copper 
In the end he let me off with a warning, and told me not to do it any more

TBH – I don’t really have a problem with the police. I know they may not like some people that drive around in modified cars, and that they could do more for people that are victim to robberies, break ins, etc......But they do have their uses, because think of what the world would be like with out them.

I hate it when there's a Police car in the left-hand lane doing around 60/65 and everyone's too pussy to overtake it.

haha... Yes I was lucky today too...
Was coming back from work at legoland windsor - cops everywhere... decided to stop at some lights, (which I could of gone across if I had wanted).
Anyway this cop car ends up ahead of me, so I end up following it all the way down the dual carriageway (windsor relief road)...
If I hadn't of been following him, I'd have been doing my usual foot to the floor driving down that road (it's a completely straight stretch)...
Anyway, while going slowly behind this cop car, I noticed an unmarked police car both sides! and a Camera Van!
Plus later on down the route (over another round about) the cops had pulled some poor bastard
I guess they were out in force today!
