    Seems a few more people have to get killed or mutilated by thugs for the government and police to get the message. Besides they aren't allowed to chase anyone anyway are they?

    ..although Dan the Man is so beset by corruption and exposure of secret deals that he's pretty occupied right now I guess.

    Years ago they were driving through Bairnsdale in a BMW sports so nothing is new ...

    Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Doug Fryer said, “Death and serious injuries on Victorian roads could be reduced by a third overnight if everyone was driving the safest cars they can afford.”

    Hmm!

    Victoria Police have Australia’s fastest cop car.....

    But they can't use it for pursuits..... brilliant concept.

    Um, who said they cant use it for pursuits? Ok its been kept a little hush but everyone that does do a runner has found out they are allowed to pursuit.

    I had my mate who is a Hwy Patrol officer over the other day with another copper and we got onto talking about what they will end up with.

    I mentioned it needs to be a package, something that not only goes but can corner and brake like nothing else, infact more importantly stop and turn over the outright power.

    They looked pretty peed off and asked me to go talk to command, apparently they were told cost is on top of the list and their safety pretty much at the bottom of the list.....

    They should all be decked out with Great Wall vehicles then Godz, if cost is the primary factor and safety last.
    I think that suits

    All they have to do with this car(reported Overseas ) is hope the cop is an idiot and Stop behind the Idiot and once that happens Just reverse into the Cop car and the Cop car is not going anywhere. Also I won't say because if people like this reading this that they have found a New way of Disable the cop car even is the cop car stop in from of the Idiot but I won't put this on the Forum because if the wrong people is reading they will say Hummmmm!. You can say Typical Pollies in Australia they Don't do there Home work first Fu..k Fools.

    Nah! Forget the cars, just issue the cops with a camera and send the fine to the perp in the mail. Heck, they could even save court costs and say , "you were a norty boy, Don't do it again" and leave it at that.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
