60+ round a bend then put your foot down to go even faster to out run the police!
Well done You must be very proud of yourself

I know the area really well and knew he couldn't turn around on a blind corner (that I just came round), so thought f the pigs and kept my foot in. I didn't see sight of him again but do you reckon they had my recorded speed when coming the other way? I was in a 50 doing probably 60+ but the corner is particularly tight so it might have looked faster than it was.

Side note, I knew I could keep my foot in and lose him. I also used my Road wars/police interceptors knowledge and didn't turn off at the first exit possible, which I presume they did as they wouldn't have seen me on the straight.

Heart was racing. I would never do it again, but I just finished work and couldn't be bothered to **** around and had the benefit of the situation. I would never outrun a rozzer in a normal situation.

It depends which police vehicle it was, if it was an astra or focus estate then chances are no as they don't normally carry cameras or ANPR equipment. If it was a Volvo or BMW then yes, they might carry either and be able to guestimate your speed, or at least have a record of you passing them.

Ah finally, a valid reply.

Okay thanks for the info. It was a skoda. I know they would have had a recording, but there's no way it looked like I was going super fast. In my defense, you could easily look like you're going fast round a bend, and he's slowing into the bend, so there's that argument. I wasn't going silly fast at all.

This wouldn't be your full name on a public forum either,a forum you just admitted to outrunning the police.

Sleep well pal.
Try not to let the thought of rotting away in a dark and cold police cell disturb you

How can you quote something that hasn't been said? It looks like he's used that in paint and tried to trick me. Haha, nice one buddy, I can see photoshop from a mile away..
