    I am fairly sure that the van I saw on that news report, eventhough it was the same model, it had a roof rack and one of those access ladders to the roof at the back of it.


    Is there a roof rack on the one above ?

    The van used in that case was a sprinter.

    The van in the video is 100% not a an emergency service vehicle.

    Quick Question or 2,

    Am I right in saying all the Skoda fleet parked up on Harcourt/hatch st are Organised Crime unit? Also are these known as just unmarked or are they ''undercover''?

    What is deal with Gardai having cars to bring home at night? One detective in my area has a I40 home always its practically a company car for want of a better word, is this common?

    Not a car video, but a video talking about cars, so I've left it out of the main submission thread.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_dfBMHfsMQ


    In all seriousness, you should check the other videos on this channel, simply gripping story telling. Ben Pearson featured on the Police Interceptors series and he talks about how his career left him mentally and physically scarred to the point of early retirement.

    The 'The Pursuit that HAUNTS me' video is gut wrenching. Living with that type of baggage explains a lot of what he went through.

    I've been watching these for the last few weeks. I love the honesty in them. He talk about things the way they are, not in the PC way they have to on the shows.

    It's like the Channel 4 doc a few years back.

    Dome of those YouTube ones seem to be edited themselves I think. You can view them on the Channel 5 website. Has Traffic Cops and Interceptors too.

    The only way they caught more was because there was less on the road and all the checkpoints which I've never seen in my lifetime.

    Back to near zero again anyway.

    UK has all this tech pre 2000

    Sure, we'll give them back so and not bother. It's not all traffic, it's been used plenty to catch gougers too.

    Regular getting more Access with lapdock and more features on the phone too

    Next stage will be interesting non intercept speeding fines etc that will be shock to the system.

    Drone system will be very interesting once it can start
