Funnily enough, I live in Yorkshire, and I know quite a few officers from various forces (Wakefield, Leeds, Bradford -including an Inspector in the Internal Investigations area), and I have to disagree with you on that statement - then again, I try not to making sweeping generalisations about any group of people.

I am sure there are, as in any profession, a number who do not live up to the high standards expected - that doesn't (imho) mean all, or the majority, don't maintain those standards.

Next time i know someone who has got a speeding ticket i will tell them to bring up The Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, reg 87.
trev, if they had to obey the speed limits, how would they catch speeders? btw, they can be prosecuted for dangerous driving.
