I heard Australia have highway patrol towing a motor home on the back dashing around the motorway to catch speeders.

Just wondering, if the law say you can't go over 80kmh (is it 90 under the new law?) while towing something, isn't the cops violating the law themselves?

Maybe we should call the cops on the cops.....

Luvin the stories gents, Tommy, pics of the chair incident?

There's a few boy racer cars about in welly that are undercover cops...that's like entrapment, although we don't really have that as a legal defense here...my understanding is there's also a kitted out honda civic cop car aswell that does lower north island.

There's a few WRX Cop cars down in South Island I think. Saw them in WRC NZ 2003 specially brought up as pace cars. Man, they suck at drifting.

Sounds blatantly dishonest if true.

What next, tradesmens vans, maybe a big rig truck?

Speed cameras are already in tradesman vans ... old ones too

had a black FORD F250 7.3LTR V8 turn up at work with all the bells & whistles.

I know they cost a fortune so the budget cant be to tight,could get 3 toyota hilux for that.

Saw an old corrola (like '84) in Otara pulling over a truck. Looked barely warantable - rust, bald tyres etc.

I would like the cops to put out a report how much it has spent on these "undercover cars" and how effective they have been. I am not too happy about this use of taxpayer funds.

Just saw a dark green HiLux for unmark speed camera car.

(Typical Tradesman Van with a hard-top canope on the back)

Parked on College Road, Remuera for most of the afternoon

About a month and a bit ago was out with some mates, in the akld domain, i pulled up first in a carpark with my lights shining out over the grass, then my mate pulled up and parked on the grass, debating whether to venture. Low and behold a Nissan Sunny down the road turned on its lights, drove up beside us, stopped and stared for a min or so, then as it drove off it fired up it's lights and sirens and all that... we were just wtf.

Guys, I'm fully not bsing here but over a month ago me and my brother we're driving northbound on the motorway past takanini and whats that we see over the other side of the road. A red E46 parked on the side of the motorway with a police officer sitting inside, now it seemed unlikely a cop would be sitting in one of those but he was wearing a blue shirt with those things on the top.

My brother will back me up on this one, he was the one driving.
