What HATOS? Nah who cares. You have to stay behind them if they're doing a rolling roadblock thing. I was once They stopped everyuone on the M25 and picked up a Breeze block.

I overtake Police cars if they're doing below 70mph. Up to them if they want to drive slow, I won't shit it and stay behind them

hate people who dont overtake police cars, or if in the fast lane doing 80ish and the copper is in the slow lane, will bang on the brakes

I overtake normal cops.
Scared of speeding(not overtaking) past traffic though.

my mate said this happend to him the cop was doing 70, my mate doing 80 went past and then relised it was a unmarked traffic car Was shitting it abit so slowed down, then they overtook him and carried on. nothing ever came from it either which seems abit strange.

I was told coppers tend not to be bothered on the motorway if your doing 80ish as long as your not driving like a prick.

Always wondered whether the VOSA-liveried cars can actually pull you over, given that they (seem to) have orange-warning lights rather than the police-standard blues-n-twos.

Usually see those guys helping out at break downs and stuff. But yeah, they do get me for a second or two until I realise who they actually are.

VOSA officers do have the powers to stop you but they make it very clear that they want you to stop with matrix signs in the back of the vehicles etc, they look the same as Highways Agency officers but have VOSA on the vehicle.

dont VOSA have the authority to pull you over and do a "road side" MOT check on your car?

Those HA cunts. Everyone is too pussy to overtake them. I flash my lights at the cunts in front doing 65 in the outside lane cos they are scared of a Range Rover with some cones in the boot to get them out my way and they wont feckin' move

You only have to stop for blue lights. I wouldn't stop for anything else.
