stopped 4 times. Once for apparently speeding in my metro altho i wasnt, they probably just stopped me cos it was a shit car! 2nd time was for having tyre flys on my corsa, taken em off now anyway. 3rd time was in corsa too, they were doing "random breath tests" in town, but ive never driven pissed, so i was fine then. 4th i beat an off duty policeman at the lights (didnt know he was the fuzz at the time) and then he pulled me over and had a go at me after about 1/2 mile, but i didnt go above like 32, so he couldnt say anything anyway!

Twice, in just under 10 years...
Once for pulling away without lights on at midnight (turned them on as I was moving, rather than before I started moving)......breathalysed for that one, was safe but have never touched alcohol if I'm driving since then...
Once for speeding (90 on a motorway, got let off with caution because "you were driving too fast, but doing it safely and using lanes & indicators properly" - bit lucky, really)...

Errr, got stopped when i was young, 47mph in a 40 :mad, they gave me 3 points.
Been stopped numerous times, accelerating to fast from a roundabout (wtf??????), rear reg plate (but he just wanted a look at the car and let me on my way), once for racing an off duty copper in a Scooby at 125mph , couple of other times, but never had any reason to actaully prosecute me. "touch wood"
If ur gonna piss about whilst driving, u should leave it to open areas, countryside etc. I think thats why to date i've been lucky.

Nice to see your trying to nitpick still though thomas. And f.y.i, points came off my license over a year ago.

about 9 times in total, but 3 times last week! Whilst I was sat in the back of the police car, the two coppers were watching a fight of about 20 people across the road. Then they said my tax disc was fake (which it isn't) and that my car had been in the country for 11 years (jap import, imported about 2 months ago)
