no such thing as a 216, 316 etc. All crashes are 15 codes irrespective, priority prefix determines seriousness. 16 was dropped when CAD came on line. Any 7-- is a LOTBKF, so a 701 relates to a LOTBKF for an armed robbery. Also any vehicle class 1 to 4 is capable of doing a P1 or Pursuit. The priorit...

Now if a police officer found himself chasing a high powered vehicle does he get an advantage from driving a V8 just to keep up with speed or are 'tactics' such as stingers and road blocks more important than raw speed...? I forgot to add in my first post about this but I think the raw speed part is...

as Walks said main issue is the catch up. This applies equally to both a pursuit situation and a highway patrol using mobile radar. The beauty of having V8 in say a highway situation is that you have to spend far less time at high speed going after a motorist you have done a u turn for. For the most...

Pity he is just a poor traffic bloke hey danny... How is TEG these days?

The comment was based on viewing your post history. You seem to have this view that coppers have blown up egos and always think they are right. My comments about "stick to" are not designed to be intimidating towards others they are along the lines with the comments made by the moderators ...

Ahh good to see a thread need to degenerate to this sort of behaviour. You will find that quite a few "members" browse this site on regular basis. It is actually quite interesting to see how other people view the tasks that are attended and what tasks are "interesting". I have be...

Not my point. I find the posts by Just.Nosey informative. The refreshing part about those posts is that Just.Nosey doesn't pretend to know something. If the information is not verified it is declared in the original post. It is fairly obvious what type of vehicles are used by WAP. Part of this site ...

I noticed a sub-topic of the previous related thread was about vehicles, ie V8's and turbos etc. I understand that it is a public forum and everyone is entitled to their view. I do, however find it amusing to see people getting high up on their soapbox about something they know absolutley nothing ab...

This new show will commence at the end of the current series of Border Patrol. It had the working title of True Blue but according to Ch7 literature it is to be screened as Police Patrol. Expected start is Jul 2006. A fair bit of work will go into this series as the main aim is to have NSW and VicPo...

I do not wish to prolong the discussion about the posts by Byte, however I think it is important that the following message is conveyed. What I want to add to my first post is that if Byte has an issue with the way he says he was arrested then he should direct this through proper channels. Do not us...

Hey Shaun. I see you make some very interesting comments about your apprehension. As I was the one who caught you I am surprised you choose to gloat about it. Remember if you want to run around with those big noting plates, make you can actually do what they say as you certainly couldn't that night!...
