oh alright cool, i think they have specific cars to patrol each area .. like commodores on highways / freeways since not many cars can outrun them xD *heard some pretty funny stories from friends about "trying" to outrun cops on freeways

but around the fairfield / caramar and villawood area i only seen them in mitsubishi 380's o.o"

I thought that all cop cars aren't allowed to have any stickers on them.. not even allowed to have the stickers for car dealerships I thought..

All this dodgy stealth BS pisses me off .. think I'm gonna stop for a commo ute with a 'UNIT' sticker on the back just cause it has some pretty lights that anyone could get from Crazy Clarks?

Hells no .. hope they would like to go for a nice long drive to the farthest police station I can find

We have a Kia people mover cop car as well.

300C apparently.
a mte saw someone being pulled over on the high way by a black 300c.

on that note, there is at least one idiot that lives in brisbane but goes up and down the coast that drives a falcon and pretends to be a cop and pulls ppl over because it makes his penis bigger

hmmmmm first the police take away our decision to know when to go fast or slow, with so many police and cammeras on the road these days a person is more likley to have an accident looking constantly at there speedo other than the road.
then for no reason they pull u up for a routine check what a lot of sh*t!
like a driver hasnt got anything better to do than get pulled over for 20min for doing nothing.
its just embarasing when another motorists looks at you on the side of the road thinking he got done for speeding, in reality the driver did nothing wrong. i hate that ( leave me alone).
the days have gone when a person says hi to there local police officer, now its i hate cops, if a cop ever needs help to change a tyre or he needs a jump start HA! il drive right by.
every one drives a car we arnt all criminals, but yet we all make mistakes there is a difference between intentianally speeding through the streets and overtaking or going 5-10 km over the speed limit.
its happend to me going 10km over the speed limit u check your speedo from time to time and correct your speed, it dosnt deserve $200 fine. man i had to get this off my chest im paying $1000 dollars in fines becouse from time to time u go 5 km over the speed limit and i try to be carfull im geting more fines now than when i was 18 years old and im more responsible now. i had enough. i hate cops with a passion.

A great strategy to combat this - drive 10 - 15 km/h below the speed limit, so when you accidentally pick up a few clicks going down a hill, it isn't the end of the world or your wallet.

i do 2 things when i come across cops with attitude. I ask for their details (name badge etc) and then i get my mobile phone out and point it at them. the moment they think they are being video'd their mood changes.

about 2 years ago i had an interesting "moment" with the boys in blue. at the time i had my 300ZX and was on the open highway. a "boyracer" in a WRX started tailgating me and at times would have been within 1/2 a meter of me.( we were doing 100km/h) I was just about to give in and give him a go when, for what ever reason i decided to let him be a homo on his own. i slowed down and let him pass. about 15mins later i saw him on a side road just off the main road. the wrx was a undercover cop car and he had pulled another car over. i carried on thinking what a homo the guy was. about 10 mins later he was up my ass doing the same thing again. knowing he was a cop i ignored him and carried on. after 3-4 minutes of this he must have got fustrated and decided to pull me over anyways. the moment he switched his lights on i had an idea. i rang police comms, identified myself and told them i had a car following me with police lights but i was unsure it was a legit car. at the time there was an emial circulated about people pulling over for fake cops and being robbed. comms asked me for his licence plate and discription of the car but i told them i couldnt see it/ identify it, i was also "vague" about my location. long story short i took my friend for a 10 minute ride while comms confirmed the car was legit. by the time i pulled over the guy was ready to burst but because i'd rang police comms to varify the car was legit he couldnt do me for not pulling over. he wasnt a happy boy. i drove away and wished him a happy day

couldnt he have got you for using a mobile while driving? and so its not illegal to video them with your phone if you suspect youre being trated unfairly?

Post by **vipfto** » Tue Jun 17, 2008 10:57 am

as long as you tell them that you are videoing them you can do what ever you like as it them can be used at a later dateif need be.
