This is out East mate. If they pulled every Transit with a broken light then the local Old Bill would be immobilised. Not because they'd be so busy but because they'd have all been nicked! I followed a local police van for 2 miles to the local Tescos the other day. I counted 6 places that I considered required a signal during which time the van gave precisely - none! A few days later I followed a response car from the self-same Tescos. To one in the know it was clear that he was driving to 'the system' - such a shock I nearly had to call Reynolds out for a heart attack! 'Basic' drivers in the Met? Just say, gimme the car/van keys, here's yer pushbike mate.
