Only been pulled once and that was for "speeding"
It was a traffic cop so I know he knew that I really wasn't speeding. Just wasn't happy I overtook him on the sliproad.
He came across initially as a right twat. But realising I wasn't the typical Chavvy Saxo owner and that my car was 100% legal, he had a bit of a laugh with me.
Still gave me a producer though! Bastard!

funny you mention that I was driving today and hada thought I wonder ifa copper was in a 60 zone driving 40 you over took them they then pulled you over. what would they actually be able to do lols. as you would not be speeding as you would be upto 60mph by the time you had over took them and it would not be dangerous driving if the manouver was done on a clear strip of road!
im sure they would just pull us over just for the simple reason they had been over taken and did not like it lols.

If its safe, why not?
Like police on the motorway doing 60MPH, everyone else sits behind it and dose 60MPH.. The limit is 70MPH, so do it.

Exactly. 
but I dare you to overtake a marked traffic car legally and safely and get away with it.
At the very least they will stop you and give you a producer just to annoy you. That's what happened to me, he started giving me shit about doing 85mph past him when I know for a fact I didn't top 70. lol.

Did you ask him to prove it?
Like i undertook the police car and i was told i was clearly doing 40MPH...
I asked for some evidence.. "You dont need evidence, i can tell you i was doing 30MPH exactly" i refused to give in and in the end cause he wasnt be-littling me i think he gave up and gave me a verbal warning lol.

No way. I was fucking steaming at the time and didn't wanna cause a fuss 
No seriously, I told him I knew I wasn't speeding and that I hadn't done anything wrong. He took my license, asked me who the car was registered too, who was it insured under. All me, went back to his car checked it over and came back a completely different person.
Did take the piss out of my driving license photo though.

Aparently i've under took at police car in a 30MPH road, that has 3 lanes, left, right or straigh on. I chose to go left, but though i'll go otherway home.
under took him dead on 30MPH. Wasn't happy and right up my arse all the way home. Pulled me over on a bridge (TW@) then called for abouther 2 cars for 'back up'?
I dont have a problem with the police at all. I know i dont cause a problem on the roads, and whats more, i dont go looking for trouble so they dont bother me.
I have respect for the police tbh, one thing that annoys me is i get told off for parking down the high-street but a taxi can park down the high-street while he pops into the shop
