The thing is, to be honest if that comment wasn't being used as an excuse then I could understand it. I mean, if you were expected to drive at speeds well over a ton in a Vectra then you would want to know how (bad) its going to feel
But if thats the case that these "advanced drivers" need this, then the police should hire private land for that purpose.....
I mean, who's to say that at this time, he doesn't have a blowout, and skids and hits the one car thats on the motorway (full of teenagers) coming back from somewhere........
Its double bloody standards!
Quite right mate. Whilst we're getting potless due to excess taxation on fuel and everything else we also have to spend our cash on track days/handling days/high speed bowls or trips to Germany, whereas if you live among the ranks of our wonderful traffic police you are above the law and can do what the hell you like oh what a brilliant system......
