The Police IIEnzyme asks: Have you ever been arrested? Been thrown down the stairs by the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad, with hi-LAR-ious consequences? Or maybe you're a member of the police force with chortlesome anecdotes about particularly stupid people you've encountered.
Do tell.

Many years agowhen I lived in Plymouth (awful place), I had a Cavalier SRi - a very old (D reg) Cavalier SRi, which for some reason was a bit of a magnet for TWOCers looking for a quicker and lazier way home.
Over the year or so that I owned it, it was stolen five times, each time found within a mile or two of where it was taken.
On the last occasion the Police called me to tell me they'd found the car and asked if I could go and pick it up, which I duly did. About three weeks later, I was taking the kids down to Cornwall for the day. We were about a mile or so outside Newquay in quite heavy traffic when the Police car which had been behind me for some time put on his blue lights and indicated I should pull over. Apparently the car was still on their files as stolen - despite them having found it three weeks earlier.
So yeah, I was stopped for apparently stealing my own car.
