~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted April 4, 2005 Posted April 4, 2005 Pinched from Type R Scotland "Been reading on Scottish_Elises today that their run was brought to an abrupt end by a Police road block. Apparently some old duffer reported them for having the audacity to overtake him. As usual the report was probably exaggerrated to include rowdy boy racers, young hooligans driving dangererously etc blah blah. Hardly true as they are mainly oaps over there So despite none of them being caught speeding, or doing anything reckless or illegal they were all pulled over and made to sit about for 2 hours while their cars were scutinised for faults. I think they issued a grand total of a £30 fine for some slightly iffy spacing on a number plate. Obviously the North East cant be a hotbed of crime given the resources sent to pull over a bunch of guys out on a Sunday run Anyway, with more and more cars attending our runs its probably only a matter of time before something similar happens to us. Some of the cars were warned by fellow drivers via mobiles before they hit the road block. Reports of Tut heading for the border with a high speed bike in pursuit are, as yet, unconfirmed " After reading that you may wish to read this - we need another 16 peeps Edit :- puts me off decatting my whip when I see sh1t like that. Is the fine not circa £1000 ? ABERDEEN peeps :- watch out en route to our monthly meet Piccy of the entourage being apprehended !
wrxmania Posted April 4, 2005 Posted April 4, 2005 Oh dear - a pity but inevitable really. The police are not stupid and one or two sneakily set up speed camera's etc would see the issuing of a multiple of fines/points I am sure - not that anyone speeds ever Brian

zeolite Posted April 4, 2005 Posted April 4, 2005 Aha I recognise the Invercauld bridge just outside Braemar. there is not a lot of choice of roads round there so I recommend we stay well away from Royal Deeside.
Carl Davey Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 Dad heard a rumour about that and i thought it may have been the Scottish Elises.
secret photographer Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 Just as well we didn't get the mot done on the exige for the summer last week! lol
