    Default Sneaky sneaky police

    Hey Guys,
    Just wanted let people know to beware of the existance of at least 2 unmarked police cars in the form of gun metal grey VW GTIs!
    I know one is that colour and am pretty sure the other one is the same or white.

    I've already had one try and get me to race him on the M1 as he went past me at like 200kms/h. These cars are modified and fast so be careful!

    It's great to see that the government is spending more and more on expensive and under-handed tactics used to capture people for speeding.
    Kinda funny when they go on about safety being their concern isn't it?
    When was the last time you saw them checking road worthyness of vehicles on our roads..?

    Just some of the cars in use in south east queensland include,

    Black Chrysler 300C
    Grey Mitsubishi EVO 10
    Yellow Mazda RX8
    Grey VW GTI
    Black Holden SS and HSV utes one has an Orion sticker on the back window.
    Acid Green VY Maloo
    Various Toyota Aurions including TRD models
    Ford XR6 s
    Ford Typhoon s
    White Subaru WRX
    Orange Ford G6E Turbo (got me)
    Black Holden GTS
    Sky Blue Holden GTS with personalised V8 supercar plates...

    Anyone with anymore should add them to this thread just so people can know what to look out for.

    I was pulled over on the way home yesterday afternoon by a policeman standing in front of a white Commodore. I thought he got me for speeding with a mobile radar gun. Instead it was for a breath test. I can't remember the last time I was tested in Bris... I thought it was a little weird at 4:00pm in the afternoon.

    I have seen a couple of GTi's with police in them around Indooroopilly.

    So it seems these grey GTIs get around
    Or, Maybe there is more that we don't know about...

    Yes, "hoons" have cost everyone dearly, along with insurance getting harder, crazy new rules for repeated traffic offences and tougher penaltys, the police have gotten so sick of being beaten and disappeared on etc, etc, they have really ramped up on the calibre of cars they want.

    Thanks to all the try hard dicks that met at the broadwater car park and then left in groups of like 50+cars to race on the M1 on fri & sat nights. All whilst they were followed by unmarked police recconaissance vehicles and the footage shown to government, Today Tonight etc,. You Guys Rock

    I don't mind if admin want to move this thread to General but I thought that kinda suits being in a queensland section

    haven't seen anything out of the ordinary down here in Adelaide. All undercover cars I've seen are Falcons or Commodores.

    But then again we don't usually get 50+ cars having group races on the highway.

    Instead the government here has decided road safety consists of
    a) lowering speed limits instead of fixing poor roads
    b) widespread use of fixed and mobile speed cameras
    c) anything that can generate more revenue for them

    there are roads out there that need huge maintenance. Main roads, in fact, and instead of maintaining them the government just drops the speed limit. It's absurd.

    I saw a Black GTi on bruce highway earlier this year. There are also unmarked camrys and Aurions everywhere.

    I just can't understand why police department spent money to buy those damn expensive cars to make people to race and fine them. I remember 3 years ago one of my mate was driving a MR2 on M1, a blue commdore SS went to sit on his tail, he didn't do anything, the commdore went passed him and CUT HIM OFF and then took off. He was so angry about it and start chasing the commodore, by the time he clocked over 160kph, the commodore turned on the light and he lost his licence.

    He went to the court, spent $$$$ on lawyers but no one could help him.

    Some of them are slow on everything expect when they are fining people.
