Yup, I was in one last night. I wasn’t the driver and it was on duty, unlike Ortega.
We had a report from another force of some very seriously naughty people doing naughty stuff at about 3am. This has been going on for a little while and involves a certain type of premises, so we have a slight action-plan as to what to do. My colleague and myself went and sat up in a village that they were seen heading towards. We sat in someone’s driveway in the village so we could see the premises and the main road going through the village. My last words to my colleague before it all started were, “don’t fly off this driveway because it’s like a ramp and I don’t want to end up in that wall over there, but don’t stall it, because that would just be embarrassing.”
So, we’re sat there with our windows open so we can hear anything coming when suddenly we do. Two cars fitting the description went past doing about 60mph in the 30mph zone and so we started to go after them.
My colleague turned the engine back on having stalled it and THEN we started to go after them.
Once we had caught up to them doing 70mph out of the village the front car obviously saw us because it put its hazards on and then off they both went. So, blue lights going we followed. The cars we were trying to keep up with were big beefy sports cars and we were in a 1.4 Astra. On the bending 60mph roads we kept up, but as soon as we hit the straights they were flying ahead.
Anyway, to cut what could be a long story shorter, traffic got involved as did every officer around, but they lost us. They were insane. Going down these roads at that speed in the pitch dark and they kept turning their lights off to make it harder for us to see them. The only reason they would have stopped is if they had crashed.

I hate the way some people drive- Especially when morons come close to running you over in a 30 Mph zone when they're hedging on 60 or 70 and then have the cheek to ask what the f*** you're on. Not what you're on mate, as I'm not driving without due care and attention, doped up on some cheap painkillers with distorted "music" coming from a knackered old Peugeot.
The moral of the story? Be careful crossing roads in Littlehampton.

If you knew they were coming, why not just deploy those spike-trap things? You remind me of Dick Dastardly.
1.4 Astra?
Something to take up with the union I think.
Is the police force covered by the PCS union that called for a Civil Service strike today?

Why didn't they give you something decent if you were likely to get in a high speed chase? I mean, if I was going to get chased by a police Astra I would be polite and stay in third gear.
Cool
Do you have one of those cameras on the front that measures the speed?

THEY MIGHT NOT BE SO LUCKY NEXT TIME, BECAUSE THE ARM OF THE LAW HAS A LONG REACH.
