Double Demerits

lol @ the cops on whitfords ave (just before lights at shopping centre) this evening. They had an undercover falcon hiding in a side street ready to pounce, and a cop with a radar gun lying down on the ground as far away from the main road as possible (but still being able to see cars coming down). Bet that was an expensive night of shopping for a few people Surely the cop isn't allowed to lie down on the ground like that? Didn't see him wearing a yellow vest either... it's antics like this that cause the public to lose respect for the police.

Only saw two cop cars on the cruise last night, both were paddy wagons and didn't bother us.

It is antics like that that will get the sorry d@##h$%^d squashed when some innocent driver pulls off the road to check vehicle noise/doughy tire/answer mobile phone/attend nipper/ankle biter backseat emergency etc etc.

"lying down on the ground as far away from the main road as possible"

Exactly how far do you expect someone to pull of the road?? I honestly don't think the cops care about gaining respect. With the amount of people writing themselves off this year I'd say they are sick and tired of scraping body parts of the road.
