Clarify something for me if you can... - Bobbin Threadbare

When I was driving home from work yesterday afternoon, for some distance I was travelling behind a black 59-plate BMW 3-Series, which had two strip stickers on the back, just under the little 'lip' the boot has. The stickers said 'police training'. The car was doing well over 70mph, didn't have any grille lights that I could see when I passed it, and he never nicked anyone. He wasn't accompanied by a marked vehicle either.

Is this standard practice? It looked like someone with a black Beemer had got a couple of strips of elastoplast and printed on them using a laser printer. Fishy. Anyone seen it before?

The rozzers should employ Bobbin as part of the training program - catch up with Bobbin.
