Honestly, I'd have complained. That isn't on in my book. I'd have taken his badge number and filed a complaint.
I put in a verbal complaint against a female (f**king bitch) orifice as she accused me of taking drugs. My parents also complained against her as she was giving me abuse as my parents paid my insurance on my first car, mum was not amused. I was pulled for the first time 3 days after passing.....
The best one was when I got pulled recently for my slightly small front reg plate... They went on about how it was for my benefit as if the car was stolen their nifty number plate reader would find my car. However with a small plate it wouldn't. I said 'great but what happens if my motorbike is stolen?' This was 3 days after a nugget on a stolen bike with 3 people on it hospitalised 10 folk at a parade in the city.
The policeman just shut up. Lecture over!
Yes, I'm not the biggest fan of the police as my ex () brother in law turned into a w4nker when he joined and then left his 2 year old daughter to shack up with his probationer WPC. As my dad says, the police don't care these days as they are too busy sh466ing each other!
