the illegal legacy..
hello folks meant to get this up last night but never got the chance.. travelling along ballyclares hillhead road yesterday morning a brisk enough wee speed jst 10 mph over the 40 before relizing at last minute to an array of blue flashing lights in my rear view mirror i pulled over and apoligized and that i needed to get to bank appiontment on time which had no effect to the women police officer and her hot blonde pal.. the driver proceeded to embark on a serious of questions and demanded my drivers licence informed me olso that they were conducting a subaru winter exnamination check whick i found quite unconvincing.. next her eagle eyed partner starts nutting off at me about how the car looked that the tints, exhaust system, spoiler,front strip and cb aerial were all illegal! i cheekily chirped in and informed her that the larne law enforcement reguarlly stops me so often that now that ive gotten to know sum of them by name and let me on my way after a liitle chat of were im heading and not to rev the old girls exhaust to loudly.. well well that really got her upset to say the least, and nutted off at me sum more that she could write me so many tickets that they would be intitled to impound the legacy.. i got my hump up with her and told her she would be better off putting her resources into certain areas of belfast and upsetting the people there who have never owned a drivers licence in their life.. so theres me sitting late for my appointment! by now pondering the subarus future in a crushing machine, wot happens? next the to of them get called out some were and tell me to keep my speed down!.. so much for the subarus winter exnamination and illegal extras dont you jst love the glengormley law enforcement lol...

Think I might have met the same police woman as I drove through ballyclare back carpark @ 80+MPH ( recorded only in her pretty wee head ) 80mph over that ramp lol I was doing no more than 25mph and had travelled about 20 - 30 mtrs
She threw such a hissy fit demanding that I turned my engine off didnt go down too well when I told her I couldnt as the turbo needed to cool down.
She looked at the rear of my car then the front then she asked " Just exactly what sort of car is this " well by this stage my tongue was numb from me biting it.
She roared and shouted at me about driving around ballyclare recklessly earlier in the day ( I had been at work and home in Antrim all day )
the end up was she gave me a producer for mot insurance and driving licence but then was so confused she told me to be on my way with out giving me my copy of the slip.
She really didn't like it when I drove around the towns 1 way system and pulled up beside her (as she was ranting at another turbo'd car driver) and asked her for my copy.
This lovely blonde cop would probably be much better employed as a parking attendant cause she knows sweet fa about cars
big exhaust & dump valve must be illegal can't wait until she pulls brocks over some night lol

I love threads like this one............makes me feel so much more competant than some of the "new" recruits.........."Subaru winter examination"? My ar$e !!!!
I hate this sort of behaviour and have experienced the same myself all too often, the worst case was after spending a sunday afternoon cleaning the car then taking it down to Portstewart prom that night (still dressed in trackies and hoody and baseball cap from just having finished cleaning it ), I was stoped 4 times in 15 minutes......and the immortal line of " whats someone like you doing driving something like this ? "........I was furious and the said constable was put in his place so quick I think his head is still spinning.....Absolutely raging that this can go unchecked....if you feel aggrieved enough phone Ballyclare and ask to speak with the duty Inspector or Sgt, and ask if they are aware of this operation, and can they clarify why Subarus are being specifically targetted...........seems like a reasonable enough request to me.......
What a nightmare....................

Im sure Brocks will confirm with me, But if an officer gives u jibb just ask for his number, Name and station then get the blower 2 his duty sgt. Most cops just send u on ur way once u ask for their number, but it does annoy sum of them and u might get it worse.

Yeah will have to have a word with him LMAO........as for panicking when stopped, as long as your legal, DONT PANIC......at the end of the day we are just doing a job, and aslong as the person stopping you is decent enough, they are probably more interested in the car than your driving.......live and let live.......and smile LOL, that really throws us off our guard LMAO

ive found any police woman ive came across on my travels has the same sort of attitude..............some men 2 although a bit of flirting usually helps things!!!! dont understand cops applying for the traffic branch when some obviously dont know an exhaust from a gearstick..............................had a male officer stop me a while ago in magherafelt carpark accusing me of wreckless driving earlier that week.........was my first and last time there.......and asked me if i had my document if insurance for my sierra............while i was sitting in my 1.8 diesel orion..............argued with me that it WAS a sierra (i had it debadged) and wasnt until he checked with his colleagues that he apologised for wasting my time. as.shole

There are roads policing offiers particularly in rural region who will stop modified cars ensure the modifications aren't making the car unsafe.

yeah I suppose your right there tarmac_terror, never thought of it that way! Although i have to say they were dead on an my mate had a sign on her car sayin "honk if u like my beaver" and at half 12 at nite, they even beeped their horn cos she told them she hadnt got any honks yet so at least they were down to earth!
