No nor will I, they put their lives on the line everyday to stop scum on the roads, hope the officers involved are OK.

Fine by me, i prefer to settle stuff myself anyway cos the coppers are useless gits who turn up 4 days after my car was broken into, then say its too late to do something about it!

Having read another post of yours, you really are a self opinioned individual where your postings are quite clearly not based on fact.

Perhaps if you were to have a little more understanding and knowledge, you wouldn't be so self-opinionated. Or if you were to continue to be so bashful in your approach, at least you can sit comfortably knowing it was based on fact and not just presumption.

I think it's best to find out the facts of the crash before making assumptions it's the polices fault.

Could be a variety of different situations that spring to mind that could result in the police interceptor being smashed up without being at fault.

Example, Police car in Cambridgeshire recently drove head on into another car that was heading towards the centre on a Saturday night, to me thats heroic, if the stolen car got to centre it could of potentially ended lives, the fact the policeman drove into this car head on in my opinion is technically his fault but due to his decision and judgement to make and risk involved in the decision he's just another unsung hero.

I don't like/dislike police, i've alot of friends who work for the police and it's the same old same old.

You can have 25 great coppers, 1 powertip a**ehole and everyone suddenly hates the police.

I agree , the whole Interceptor toss gets on my nerves. Get them off the telly and let them get on with what is a difficult and at time dangerous job.
Absolutely no need for them to be in the tv, all it does is give the ******* something to aim for when they drive around and crash stolen cars only to end up with a slap on the wrist.
