Do Police Even Know The Road Rules?

[Bmboy]

my experience in driving on Western Australian roads has been most unpleasurable.

in my first instance, i was on Reid Hwy, turning right into Nth Beach road. Behind me was an undercover white Ford police car, i could tell by the front lights and about 3 antennas at the back.

so i was waiting about 10 mins for a clear gap (i was driving a Honda Accord), and i saw them getting sort of wrestless. anyway turning into nth beach road the limit is 60, with a school zone nearby. because i was first, the police car was behind me, and i sat dead on 60 the whole way (people usually do 80, its single lane). anyway i heard the sirens and saw the lights in my rear view mirrors. i thought i had done some thing wrong, i started to pull over, but the police car kept going, it flew past me.

so i kept going at about 60, and up ahead near the traffic lights the police car was sitting there first at a red light WITHOUT sirens or lights, and was also turning, didnt indicate. did 50 through a school zone. and stopped at the gull petrol station..

ive got the numberplate details of that car... what can i do with it?

my second experience THIS WEEK was riding my bike, in mt lawley area, i was on a roundabout and indicated with my right arm that i was turning. a marked holden police car pulled out infront of me, i grabbed the handles with two hands, and back breaks locked and (wet road) i skidded behind the car and onto the curb. this woman in the co drivers seat wound down the window and said i need to be more 'careful'

when i get my skyline, its going to have a Bullbar on it.

thats life mate. normal id say.

if you got the plates, call up the police station that the car was patrolling in and make a complaint (pretty much guaranteed to do nothing/go no where/ get laughed at). cops have each others back, if u were a cop u probably wouldnt dob in a fellow worker for something not worth dobbing (ie some stupid road thing), unless you disliked him/her.

if it did go anywhere, and he did hear back from it, it would probably only make the cop angry and anal rape the next person he pulls over.
