Sitting waiting for @I_am_Hingis outside London Bridge last night watching the fuckwits try to kill each other on the main junction/crossings when a van at the front of the queue coming from tooley st stalls it and takes about 5 seconds to get it going again. nothing too out of the ordinary there.
the fucking black taxi cab behind him though that decided it was too long and decided to turn on his hidden flashing blue lights behind the radiator grill and chirruped a siren (much in the way police do when they pull a car over) with a passenger on board is either a very niche undercover officer or massively fucking breaking the law.
he only used it once and used it so briefly if i hadn't been looking directly at him i wouldn't have seen where it came from. pedestrians obscured my view of his tags so nothing I could use to report but it's fucking telling what kind of driver must feel entitled to be able to have something like that fitted.
