When are you obliged to stop?

[Patrick]

Do I have to stop for this guy just because he is in uniform? might want a second opinion

If it was just donut dust, absolutely!!!

The whole donut? And not even a bite out of it? Its gotta be fake.....

[HenryDorsetCase]

Nope. As above. See the ID, if none, drive on.... and grab the rego to report it..... Since most folk have cell phones, ring 111 if in doubt. Comms will soon let you know its for real.....

Failing to Stop for red/blue lights or siren (Or both, since they have both...) = Arrest, car impounded, minimum 3 month disqualification on top of any other disqualification imposed arising from the same incident.....

whoever drafted that lor had an epic sense of humour fail.

There is quite a strongly held urban myth that the po po has to have their hat on when issuing tickets, because all their superpowers reside in the hat. But not so.

if in doubt ask for the warrant card!

or nick their car keys and drive the squad car back to the station and say "Oi: is this one of yours?"

You really have to wonder with some people.

Yep - days of MOT. Their "badge of authority" was on their hat. But that was sooooo 18 years ago..... or sooooo last century...?

"I wasn't fleeing your worship, I just had the stereo on loud and didnt hear the si-reens, and I'm Italian, so "Whatsa behind me, she is not important". No, I didnt notice the 27 cop cars, helicopters, and road spikes, what am I, psychic?" If they wanted me to stop they should have tried a bit harder to pull me over, your Worship"

I'd totally run that deee fence.

You wouldn't think so going by recent news... There have been many spectacular failures by muppets who thought they could.

He's right Ed, the majority

From what I have heard on the scanner, definitely agree that the vast majority escape.

I'm surprised that you sound surprised.

(Shhh.. Surprised who posted.. )

Would suspect that what many consider doing a runner, may be passing a cop at high speed, but before giving the cop a chance to give chase, takes off and gets outta there, hiding somewhere down the ways.

What about where you are actively being chased?

Most proper pursuits still get abandoned.

I took Patrick's comment on that, though. Sure, many do get called off but for him, he got his man later, I wonder how many get clean away and not caught at all.

Smokeu will stop when he goes blind.
