Earlier today, driving on a main road in N. London, ended up behind a 5 Series Beemer late reg Police estate. This thing had mounted on the rear roof, facing backwards , a camera lens. Have never seen it before . Is that also linked to the ANPR or merely for recording of evidence ( or both ? )

Shame that this sort of kit doesn't deter the kind of idiotic driver that just a mile earlier on the same road ; Tried to pull out without indicating infront of me , to do a U turn, in a car with very dark side glass , so I only just saw he was on the phone, indeed only just saw there was a driver in the car.... How many crimes is that ?

where are the coppers - there are supposed to be circa 30000 in the Met Police , but you see so few ?

Lots in plain clothes fighting the losing battle of the war against drugs, people trafficking and the like whilst the copper's enemy (the legal system) ties the cops hands behind their back at every turn.

We have front and rear ANPR in all our cars (inside, not the silly looking exterior fit!)
