I'd rather be on the ARVs. In fact when I get bored doing this I'd probably aim to do so.

Would be good at Brazillian Plumber target practice I reckon.

You have to do about 4 years of being a PCSO like my mate then you get into the fun stuff earning more money. Very hard to become a traffic cop. All the normal cops hate traffic cops as most of them are total wankers. Your choice buts its not easy thats for sure.

Armed response would be the best, I wouldn't want to go to car crashes with ripped apart people and then go to their houses saying "your son has died etc".
At least when In armed response you can go to peoples houses and say"GET ON THE GROUND....BITCH"

Just join the normal Police, do at least two years and then apply for the traffic teams from there. If you've only got 3 points (and even 6 in most cases), it won't make a difference.

You need to have the operation to have your spine removed.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

you need to ditch a sense of logic, un-learn how to communicate with human beings, become a twat, and learn how to deal with seeing the after effects of a car crash such as mushy people, red liquid and dead babies. All for not much money

The only dealings i have ever had with the police has been for traffic offences yet every time its been with panda cars who generally didnt know what to look for even though they tried their hardest.

One tried to tell me my plates were illegal as they had no manufactorer markings on them, but my car was before a 2001 ( i think the limit is) so they are not needed. Also he said my font was illegal as it was 3d. It isnt has it was still the standard font, and legally you are allowed a 3d variation of this. The plate was to BS145
