Sometimes it's that condescending tone that's just a bit annoying - even
if you've done wrong ;-)
### ha ha ha...indeed!
What was he driving? (always like to have a handle on what unmarks are
around)
### a dark blue almost black Nissan primera (the sporty model), if such a thing
exists.

A few years back I got a speeding ticket, and the ever-so-annoying thing
being that he probably wasn't going to give me a ticket (hindsight is a
wonderful thing), but because we disagreed over his marked
over-inflation of my speed, he got stroppy, and went to the boot of his
car to get his FPN book.
Guess I failed the attitude test in that instance, but I was wary,
because: 1) the speed he was mentioning *was* inflated, and 2) was
obviously wary of admitting to a marked higher speed than I was going in
case that gave him grounds to throw the book at me.
### it never pays to argue! people who want to become police should simply not
be allowed to..as they are clearly already showing early signs of being
mentalists.

Did he do you for speeding, or for other stuff?
### well, ok.. I undertook him then nipped in between a few cars and a
bus/lorry combination... so, I got dangerous driving..which I realise now, is a
very very serious offence!

That's the smaller of the two Mitsu coupes, ain't it? Tiptronic?
I do kinda like them, they were very popular a few years back when I was
in Cyprus. Aren't they all imports in the UK, though?
### affirmative, Tiptronic, jap import which had super low mileage... solid
car, but does need some low profile wheels and uprated brakes... but apart from
that.. good fun!
