Went to wedding - policeman was getting married- what a bunch of tossers they all were. They were acting as if they have something to prove
Some are great guys, know a fair few decent coppers. Unfortunately theres always the element which as you say "have something to prove", some take out any personal problems on the public.

what ian says is correct, what the hell was he trying to "test" at those speeds, handling would be non existant.
I dont understand how he got off the speeding charge, i can kinda for the dangerous driving, but unless the cops have blue lights on, or hazards they arent allowed to break the limit, they are bound to the same laws as us then

159mph in a Vectra GSi, got to be a de-restricted one 
Thats very impressive.

Least we know Vauxhall are producing performance cars now, instead of shoddy ones they have done in the past?
