"000 Racing"....... Cops

Guess what i saw today,
Well i pulled up at the lights and as i was slowing down i could see this WRX already there right, and im having a good ol look at it lowered exhaust rims ect and on the back window is big white sticker saying "000 Racing"
anyway, its got a red P plate, n im thinking in my head somes got a "rich daddy"
besides that i pull up to it and i look across and there was a frikin cop in it! 2 of em with there hats on n all, an then was talking to some one bout it they have like WRXs, Falcons, Evo's all sorts
all sorts of modified cars on P plates, red and green
anyway thought i share a thought ..

What next?

Its the new thing the cops are doing in NSW - trying to catch people racing off the lights etc.

Entrapment imo, but there you go.

but i didnt think there was a law against redlining cars and getting to the speed limit fast..... as long as you dont break the speed limit and dont spin the wheels what is illegal about it?

Very offensive comment considering that the word hoodlum isn't typically associted with driving behaviour at the best of times. We're paying for them to buy expensive cars and then hot them up so they can call ppl hoodlums now...

You know what I think is a good idea; if you pay for hot chicks to go to Bourbon's workplace to try and bate him into doing something naughty so that you can bust him...

It's the same thing, waste of dollars... For every 2 of these modded cars on the streets, another police officer could be doing real work and stopping ppl from getting bashed or robbed. The funny thing is, when I got busted for "street racing between vehicles or animals", there were was a guy getting bashed by 3 guys across the road, and he came over to the cops for help, and they told him to go home. Cops are for catching criminals, not playing fancy dress at our expense...

I want to dress as a pirate at work tomorrow, who wants to pay for my costume?

cops can neve stop somethin from happenin...they cant be everywhere all the time...theres a reason why they didnt help him too...they were in the middle dealing with you and your friend ...they wouldnt want you to get away...

if kaz paid for a girl to try and bust me out...and i did do somethin stupid then i deserve what i get...i may not like the idea but id deserve it...

start to look from other sides please...there just doin their bloody job...

the reasons why their so called arseholes is cause there sick of dealing with dickheads who try and be smart sayin they didnt do anythin wrong...theyve been there done that...
