Red face Strange Experience on A1 last night!!

Coming down A1 last nite towards peterboro just before 4 lane section and Black disco was holding everyone up in outside lane so slowly crawled past on inside. Got everyone but Disco before having to indicate and pull out (very safely i must add) muppet behind gave me 30 seconds of full beam but i fort what the hell.
Then to my shock a red neon display came on in back of dicso saying 'POLICE' then changed to 'STOP'. Fort oh sh*te and got ready for blues and having to stop. But he just carried on. Passed on 4 lane bit and it looked like a car full of 'lets off road' types.
Any one know if this is an unmarked fuzz car or just some muppet whose picked it up at a car boot sale??????

Sounds a bit odd - can't see anyone using an unmarked vehicle for any kind of rolling closure.

Don't suppose you caught the VRM?

sorry didnt mean holding up such as a rolling road block, just going too darn slow in the outside lane with a clear road ahead. Just typical Disco. Think it was a W reg but didnt get the rest.

Prolly some form of royalty. I've seen a jag go through Harlow with an un-marked behind it with a "keep back" sign flashing at the back. Funny thing was I'd never have noticed if it wasnt for the sign flashing saying look at me Im someone special!

The "muppet" behind was prolly an armed unit thinking who's this joker getting inside our convoy

Still, no excuse for bad lane hogging IMHO

Sounds odd but is in the scope for DPS, RPS etc.

What do you mean by lets off road types?
