RLJ Cops at Victoria

Watch out guys, cops handing out fines by Little Ben at Victoria. My mates been busted and he says he can see the cops from his office still handing out fines.

i really hoped this was a thread about cops running red lights

i told a police cyclist that he shouldnt be riding along the mall down at hammersmith and he said "i know" and rode off.

after last week's running gang fight and fatal stabbing at Victoria station i am relieved to know the police are focussing their attention on cyclists jumping red lights

Having finally seen one of these in operation in Bloomsbury a couple of weeks ago I cannot actually see how you can get 'caught out'.
Six tit-hatted flouro jackets standing round a set of traffic lights aren't exactly trying to blend into the background.

how can you get caught out while knowingly jumping a red light? just don't do it, squeak

just get off your bike at the lights, walk over the line and then get back on the bike and ride

did that this morning much to the chagrin of the coppers on High St Ken this morning.

i think my cheery wave and shout of "happy dayz" went down like a libyan bullet on yvonne fletchers head

^ this. My favourite is when people 'run' red lights by hopping off, running through as a ped pushing their bike and straight back on without any real loss of momentum.

Me, I just sit and stare.

you do feel like Mr Bean

i would only do it for the benefit of po-po

if they get excited just cite crank vs brooks which is the case that determined a bike being pushed is not a vehicle, so traffic lights do not apply

well.. I got busted a few weeks ago and never seen the coppers, passed the next day and I saw the same coppers past the same lights dishing out tickets and wondered how they did it, passed the next day and the light was green so went through looking to see where he was, ha! the sneeky bastard was hiding around the corner looking over a hedge! then when you went through he radioed his oppo who was further up behind a tree and told him which ones to stop.

yep, the observer tends to be hidden behind a wall

it really pisses him off if you waive and point him out to other cyclists

not that i would do such a thing

you do feel like Mr Bean

love that moment, can't seemed to find the video of that though.

squabs, coming to wests tomorrow

one of the funniest things on the planet is you and murtle talking together. we all struggle to understand what he says. when you talk to him he looks as baffled as we feel when he talks to us

i think you are marginally clearer than mumbles!

fnck yooooo, james!

fnck yooooo, james!

Ed - can you translate for me?

one is deaf, but the other is dumberererererer

Is this illegal at all? If I were to stand at the kerb and shout at cyclists warning them about plod, would they be able to do anything apart from tell me to piss off?

ha! just saw the same coppers on the way home, they must be getting the stats up for H&F, nah Izgard I cant imagine they can do anything as you would be stopping the cyclists jumping the reds but that would piss on their chips! also I dont think they're doing anything wrong - their just crafty bastards getting the numbers up, Id do the same if I was a rozzer - they must catch all sorts with that technique mobile phone users at the lights, yellow grid offenders

has any one ever got into a police chase?

I did once about 2 in morning in the week and I was at a red ligth but wasnt heavy enough to make the sensor see me so looked and went through.

As I was about halfway through looked to my right and saw police sat in bus stop they turned blues on and started pulling out so I quickly turned right and then right again and went straight up a random drive and turned lights off.

didnt see em so waited 30 mins and carried on.

Not a very exciting chase really.

if that is a real case, it is the one of the most aptly named court case ever surely?

squabs, coming to wests tomorrow

that I am.

There was a whole thread about it a while ago
https://www.lfgss.com/thread4377.html

Ma3k and I spent the night at hammersmith station a while ago, we ran a deserted red light then saw the blue lights come on, thought ah fook, decided we werent stopping proceded to sprint down what we thought was a side street.. ended up at a dead end! so turned to welcome the approaching police car then I dunno why we did but we both took off again past the old bill ...after about 10 min of the slowest car chase you would ever see with a copper hanging out the window shouting "stop you CUNTS!" we got cut off by another cop car and van.. I remeber being hauled to the ground still clipped in getting cuffed and a big Kojack looking copper saying to me "Could you not hear the siren?? or see the lights!!" I replied "oh they were for me?" we got bundled down the station (after they stopped at the garage to buy something) While searching my bag they were asking how much we had to drink I replied "2 beers each" he then proceded to pull out 4 of the clear plastic 6 pack holders and raised an eyebrow, in the back ground I could see Ma3k getting shoved forward in to the holding cells asking "why the fuck [the other copper] is he putting rubber gloves on?".
They let me go after about 5 hours, but kept Ma3k in cause he gave them every address he had previously live at in the last 10 years. started to cycle home and after about 5 min I heard a car come up behind me and police sirens come on.. thought oh for fuck sake, but ill stop this time turned round and it was the same fuckers they just kept driving pissing them selfs laughing ...lol bastards, id have done the same.

believe it or not nothing came of it, just locked us up and let us go. Tho I think ill just stop next time..
