The watching coppers uniform is a mix match of styles, there is a lack of a crest or markings on the car. I've a high (er) res copy of the video some where, I'll try and dig the reg off it

Also doubt it's a public road, more likly a film set as the road marking are from a LHD nation.

about 2 years I attended a police driving course where we where shown how to do J Turns in a restricted space ie: with parked cars either side of the road, the photos below show some practice runs using road cones as parked cars :y
