Interesting chap i have watched a few of his vids whilst on nights , some of his other ones feature traumatic first hand accounts of the darker side of his profession

Considering what these guys have to deal with and see on a daily basis it must seriously test their patience when dealing with some of the tossers and time-wasters they come across in their line of work.

I watched one of his videos when he describing his build up to a break down (mental, not vehicle!) and it resonated on every point with what I'd been through.

I feel your pain. I know which film you mean. You could sense his trauma.

Just watched Traffic Cops. Looks like Derbyshire have a black unmarked X3 M40i!

They also had a blue Golf R.

They have been spending big, cash boost in the pandemic. They are also using the new RS3 in the west mids. Guess no one else likes the ugly grill on m135i so the police are buying.

The police seem to have lost their loyalty to volvo. Nearly every undercover car was a volvo.
West Mids aren't using an RS3.Traffic wise,they aren't using Audis and haven't done for a few years.
