david_taylor Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 To be fair they are only doing their job. I have had a rant myself with a couple of traffic cops. Its a no win situation for them though. Yeah, its a pain in the ass when you get hassle for feck all. However, its when they dont hassle a member of the public who turns out to be a major criminal or that then us and the press are straight on their backs. Give them some respect guys, its a tough job, and unfortunately these days some of the scoobs attract attention.
scientific steve Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 I find it quite funny that in the years of scooby ownership not once did I get stopped by the police I dont know if that was just luck on my part or what? The last time I did get stopped was back in 1995 on a new years morning driving to westhill in a works transit van at about 02:00 Only had three drinks the whole night which did show up on the test but as it was a low reading they werent bothered. But as folk have said they're only doing their job, I had a wee bit of banter with them and they wished me a happy new year too Not all cops are airses, its just that they have to deal with a right bunch of airses all day, so I think I would be on my guard too if I was doing the same job as them
