OK there must be some police who lie and we all know there are many of us who when we are in the wrong would never admit it (lie). I mean when was the last time you said or heard people saying, yes I was to blame for that accident, I'm a awful driver. Or, yes I was speeding, I was wrong, etc.
I was driving once in my motor on a road going through an industrial estate on a Sunday morning..It was like a ghost town so I suddenly got the urge TO BOOT IT..
20 seconds later I heard the siren behind me and so I pulled over... (No I idea where they come from/hiding)
The copper after interviewing me,obviously realising that I was a polite young man and without an attitude problem after readily admitting to my speeding offence gave me a well deserved caution...
******* then gave me 5 days to produce my documents!!

Now if all coppers were so well mannered and with such intuition and common sense perhaps this this thread would be redundant..
If only.
