Was coming into Stokes Valley this morning, and saw a uniformed officer pulling over a ute with an unsecure load (and good job too, the ute was dropping shit all down the road, I hope the officer gave him the maximum fine!)

Now the good part, the cop car was a plain white van with tinted windows (like the stationary speed trap vans, mitsubishi L300 or such like), with a ladder and piece of wood strapped on top. I would have happily sped past it, thinking it was a builder or some other sort of tradesmans vehicle! Only the red and blue lights behind the front grill gave it away. So, beware haha :D

There's a red or blue Mazda 6 in Kapiti at the moment, pulled someone over just past QE2 the other day.

Red OR blue ?... I remember it as red, but it could have been blue, I was hypnotised watching the flashing lights at the back and registering that this was in fact a cop car... Red Blue Red Blue Red Blue... Oh, and I don't trust my memory after last time when I tried to remember that guys plate.

But keep an eye out eh.

Also that thing about cops not being able to hide is off... Cop hiding in the bushes at the end of the first straight at the bottom of the Paekak hill with his laser... luckily someone flashed coz you could only see it coming the other way... Nah, I'm not hiding, you can see me from behind or above or if you're in the field over there with thse cows, none of them are speeding.

Sedge.

It was probably a SOCO, (scene of crime officers) van. They carry ladders and shit on top of their vans.

Someone once told me a story of one of their holidays. I THINK it was some place like Italy, or thereabouts. This person was in a tour bus, just travelling along normally, when they past a police car, with lights and siren on, at full speed.

How would you do your job as a police officer, if your vehicle gets overtaken by tour busses! Some countries are way behind, almost comically so.

Not as cool as the Subaru WRX that the Lower Hutt cops used to follow the boy racers around in. They just joined the chain, sat back, observed and issued tickets at the end of the night.

On a recent thread on TLplanet under the Aussie forum.
One of the members advised there was a Holden panel van, fully equipped with ladder and the general equipment you would see on a tradesman's car.
They have a video camera, which apparently can be used is court.
They cruise around on roads popular with motorcyclist, sitting just on the speed limit, and wait for you to over take them.
you then get your ticket in the mail, apparently it works quite well.
These Aussies are sneaky bastards.

this was a old blue (with rust) masda bongo or something (you know 80ish), sittin on the side of the motorway going south. They had to sit the flash outside the van.
I thought they wernt allowed to hide the cameras - cos this van was positioned so that it looked busted.
