Traffic Nazis
I've never had a real problem with coppers, they do a tough job, blah blah blah - but traffic police. aarrGGRRGGHHh. the fucks. pointless. if people want to kill themselves on the road - let us.

Byker Bypass, Newcastle Upon Tyne. If you don't know this road, it's a dual carriage way, with 70-80 feet high walls on either side so charvers/grannies/blind people have no way of stumbling onto it advertantly. A sunday morning, i was tootling down it at 48 Mph, i genuinely think it's a 50 because of previously described road conditions - que hidden traffic cop in Volvo T5 with gun out of window (the place where they hide is in spitting distance of the local fed station)

He pulls me over - the usual "where's the fire sir?" lecture... "do u know the limit?" i said i thought it was 50, he informs me it's 40, i apologise, cause i'm driving down to see my dying mother in Leeds, i always carry all my documentation which as i go to hand him, his book is already out and he's writing me a ticket. I said, hoping for sympathy, "i'm off to see my dying mum" pointing out the large bunch of flowers on the back parcel shelf of my car, to which he replies "send her my regards, MATE" in a sarky voice.

i'm overweight, kinda geeky looking, i WAS driving a crap cavalier, with all my documentation with me, only doing 48 on an otherwise totally deserted secure road, on an early sunday morning - not exactly a fucking scene from "The Fast and The Furious".... harsh? i think a tad. I've watched those 'Street Crime UK' programs, scallies get let off with fucking everything... i get 3 points and a fine!

Did i also say it was 2 days before christmas?

i hope he gets fucking aids and dies.


Sorry for length and language and fucking wanker traffic cops after making their 'arrest targets' by hitting easy targets
