That's bad, if I was in the landrover I would've driven off again. He's obviously and old guy who probably didn't hear it, therefore didn't 'not stop' on purpose. The cop should've realised that.

They were cleared of over-reacting. It speaks as if he had been stopped but then drove off after refusing a fixed penalty for not wearing a seat belt. Two sides to every story I guess.  :-\

The cops love to bring up the knuckle whenever they can. Often without justification.

+1 for that.

I've never been a fan of the old bill because I've never exactly been "Snow White", but I have met some bloody decent coppers in my time that did earn my respect (not many mind, but they are out there).
