Motorway Cops Catching Britain's Speeders S08E05 (Aug 4 2025)

CreativityTranscript
00:00A speedboat sticking out into the caddy clear.
00:07I can't say we do see many speedboats, we've got a fair few smaller boats and jet skis,
00:13but I can't recall ever seen a speedboat on the road before.
00:19It's all hands on deck for PC Adam Barley as Scunthorpe meets Saint Tropez on the A15.
00:30Let's see what we've got.
00:36When you wear a speedboat on the radio, it's a large, red, fast, nice-looking boat.
00:43I mean, it is a red boat, but it's maybe just a speedboat.
00:49Just a small ribbon at the end of the day.
00:53Nearly done, are you?
00:56Rock and roll before causing more chaos now.
00:59I think our expectations were a little bit high.
01:08Crash.
01:09Bang.
01:11Wallop.
01:13When it comes to bad driving, dash cam never lies.
01:17With Britain's worst offenders racking up a whopping three million points.
01:26It's a bell to start.
01:28Stay camping.
01:29Locking up the most dangerous people on our roads are the motorway cops.
01:34You've got better stuff to do, bro.
01:35They chase us, yeah.
01:36You know, I think you want to be catching some real criminals, are you mate?
01:39You are a real criminal, mate.
01:41We join Humberside Police.
01:43Please always return us.
01:44As they fight to keep the road safe.
01:46Pass, pass.
01:47Who's been through red like your divvy.
01:49I'm sorry.
01:50And slam the brakes on deadly drivers.
01:53Open the door now.
01:54As soon as I went past you, I was like, he's coming for me, he is.
01:57Do me own granny for speeding.
02:00You're looking at so many points at the top of the Premier League.
02:04I've been very busy.
02:06Helping them in their battle with idiots behind the wheel is dash cam.
02:10See if she's got dash cam in her car.
02:12It's vital evidence.
02:13And proof that Britain's dumbest drivers are a law unto themselves.
02:21Good little stop, that. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
02:30Tonight.
02:31I've got a drunk driver, man. I'm an absolute idiot.
02:34Look at the state of that.
02:36Happy hour's over for a drink driver.
02:39No, I won't be if we start. No, what?
02:41No, what? Drag me. Drag me there.
02:44How can you see out that window?
02:46The cops deliver some bad news.
02:49Honestly, I've never seen a vehicle with so much stuff in it.
02:52Are you delivering, are you?
02:53I'm going to have to seize your vehicle.
03:00What's the speed limit on the motorway?
03:0170.
03:02And what was you doing?
03:03Erm.
03:04And a speeder fails his maths test.
03:07I believe I was doing just over 80, am I right?
03:11We clutched at 1.900.
03:18Connecting the north and south banks of its river,
03:20the Humber Bridge took eight years to build and spans well over a mile.
03:26And the motorway cops of Humberside Police couldn't live without it.
03:35At Melton Police Station on the north side, one officer is investigating his first crime of the day.
03:41I've just got to grab a colleague's hat, because mine's definitely not being misplaced.
03:47It's definitely being stolen.
03:48So, er, I've just got to try and find one that fits me.
03:51I'd like to say I've got an average size head for an average guy, but colleagues probably think I might have a big head.
04:01Look at that.
04:02He's got two hats.
04:03Joking.
04:04Fits me.
04:05For PC Joe Gorman, there's no escaping the long arm of the law.
04:16Nice.
04:17Practical joke.
04:18I've been a cop for eight years now.
04:31I joined Road to Policing about a year and a half ago.
04:34It's probably one of the best decisions I've ever made.
04:36I absolutely love having such a huge playground and dealing with all different kinds of people.
04:42It's a good craft.
04:43Today, we're in North Bank for 12 hours.
04:48Probably going to focus more in the area of Hull East and Hull West.
04:53Nothing surprises me in Hull.
04:55So, be prepared for absolutely anything.
05:05I'm beside police.
05:06What's your emergency?
05:07I've got a drunk driver driving like an absolute idiot.
05:10He's been on the hard shoulder fast lane.
05:12He's doing about 90 miles an hour now.
05:17Just nearly hit the car in front of him.
05:21He's just come off onto the 62.
05:25I'm just going to say he's potentially drunk.
05:28Oh, interesting.
05:29Tango, November 1-1.
05:34Go ahead.
05:36Whereabouts on the M62?
05:37Where's that sighted?
05:38The informant stated that it just approached the ferry bridge services.
05:42We've got a red Vauxhall Astra insurance showing help to a Scunthorpe address.
05:51We're going to presume it's going to go back to the home address.
05:57So, we'll all start making it in that direction.
06:01It's already collided with another vehicle.
06:04Chances are, it's probably going to be a driver under the influence, which, when you combine drink and drunk driving with motorway speeds, when it goes wrong, it goes really wrong.
06:15Motorists, under the influence, cost lives.
06:19In the UK, nearly 7,000 people are killed or injured by drink drivers every year.
06:30It's 1am, south of the Humber, and the drink driver takes a roundabout too fast, with Humberside police sitting right behind him.
06:38The cops light him up, but instead of stopping, the driver makes a break for it through the town.
06:47He cuts across a roundabout, tears through junctions, and flies down a narrow one-way street, the wrong way.
06:58The boozed-up driver barrels out cross-country and becomes even more reckless, hitting speeds of 80 miles per hour and nearly coming off on a corner.
07:11But he still can't shake the cops.
07:14The driver pushes it on another sharp bend, where his luck finally runs out.
07:24The driver was convicted of dangerous driving and drink driving, and sentenced to 28 weeks in jail, suspended for 15 months.
07:34He was fined £150 and banned from driving for 15 months.
07:38I've got a drunk driver, and I'd be an absolute idiot.
07:49Near Sconthorpe, Joe is racing to catch up with a potential drink driver he suspects is heading home.
07:54We've obviously had some distance to travel, but I would like to think I was ahead of him.
08:03If it's all over the road, it's probably not going to be making too much ground.
08:09The police have got to see emergency.
08:16I've just seen a car come off the road.
08:19He went round the cyclist and he's skiddy off the road.
08:22We tried to help him.
08:24I am 90% sure I can serve alcohol on his breath.
08:29Hang on number one-one.
08:31Reports of an RTC involved in that red asterisk.
08:34Must have been ahead of us. Must have been.
08:44The report we've had is that the bumper's hanging off, which is quite worrying.
08:49It's unbelievable. It's carried on driving, really.
08:52I do want to get this car quite badly.
08:56I don't know if it's threatened anybody else from getting hurt or even killed.
09:05Oh, there we go.
09:09Look at the state of that.
09:20There's a rogues gallery of motorists on Britain's roads, and it's not a pretty picture.
09:25From sketchy manoeuvres...
09:31Oh my God! Jesus!
09:34What the f*** is that?
09:37...all the way to Van Gogh...
09:42...and the scream.
09:44No!
09:46You f***!
09:48No!
09:50Oh my God!
09:52Driving like this is quite simply...
09:54...a load of Jackson Pollocks.
09:57I'm just in the car to mop the road.
09:58I am 90% sure I can serve alcohol in this dress.
10:00Report of an RTC involved in that red asterisk.
10:03Oh, there we go.
10:05It's 11am, and Joe has tracked down the suspected drink driver to his home address.
10:23Tango November, 1-1.
10:25Walk ahead.
10:27Yeah, this vehicle's packed up on the insured party's street.
10:31Try and get some more patrols to meet us down here.
10:32Come on, look at it.
10:38Look at the state of that.
10:43It's battered.
10:45It's clear they've got something considerable.
10:50The bumper's practically non-existent.
10:52So this side, wing mirror is off.
10:54Window's smashed.
10:56The fact that somebody's driven at home in this condition,
10:59and not just stopped and walked the rest of the way,
11:01it's quite alarming, really.
11:05I suspect the driver's probably watching us now.
11:12I'm standby.
11:14I'm sorry.
11:18No, then.
11:22Is that your car?
11:24My wife.
11:25What's your name?
11:26It doesn't matter what my name is.
11:29What number you just come out of?
11:30It doesn't matter what number I've come out of.
11:31Well, it does.
11:32I'm trying to find out who's been driving that car.
11:36Are you under arrest?
11:37I'm just making some inquiries at the minute, aren't I?
11:40Just stop. I need to know your name.
11:42Do you know who this gentleman's name is?
11:44No, he doesn't.
11:45Yeah. No, he doesn't.
11:46What's his name? Danny.
11:47What's your last name?
11:48No, I'll get off now.
11:49Danny, Danny, Danny.
11:50No, I'll get off now.
11:51I'm under arrest.
11:52I'm just going to put some handcuffs on.
11:53A minute to the time you're at.
11:54You are under arrest.
11:55And the tattoo on the back of your neck.
11:57This gives the game away a bit, Danny, doesn't it?
11:59Right, at the minute in time, you're under arrest,
12:00because I suspect you were driving that motor vehicle
12:02in a dangerous condition
12:03No, I wouldn't.
12:04Whilst under the influence of either drink or drugs.
12:06Just calm down.
12:07Push it as much as you want, bro.
12:08I'll be fine with you.
12:09Push it as much as you want, bro.
12:10Yeah? I'm from Bradford, yeah?
12:11Don't drag away from me.
12:12I'm a Bradford boy.
12:13Yeah? I'll tell you.
12:14I'll talk to you like a man.
12:15I'll talk to you like a man.
12:16I will talk to you like a man.
12:17I will talk to you like a man.
12:18Come to my police car.
12:19Come to my police car.
12:20No, what?
12:21Drag me. Drag me there.
12:22You're a public servant, yeah?
12:23Right, okay.
12:24I pay your taxis much.
12:25Look at these.
12:28Look at these, eh?
12:29Come on, come on.
12:30Because I suspect that you've driven that motor vehicle,
12:32I'm going to require you to provide me with a specimen of breath at the roadside.
12:35No.
12:36Are you happy to provide me with a specimen at the roadside?
12:37No, I'm not.
12:38No, I'm not.
12:39Okay.
12:40Ten meter station, pump me yourself.
12:41Okay, okay.
12:42My boy.
12:43You'll be forever rested for failing to provide a roadside breath sample.
12:44Take a seat in the car, please.
12:45You take a seat in my car.
12:46I'm going to sit in one tube.
12:47I'll drive, you take a seat.
12:48I don't think you're in any condition to drive it.
12:50Listen.
12:51I'll get in the car, yeah?
12:52Do you want me to walk over, yeah?
12:54Please.
12:55Right?
12:56I've got big hands, yeah?
12:57Please.
12:58Have you?
12:59Can you just, like, loosen them a little bit and I'll get in the car?
13:01Yeah, please.
13:02Listen, I have no criminal record on me, bro.
13:03Yeah?
13:04You're acting like you have.
13:06Much appreciated.
13:07It doesn't hurt as much.
13:08Jump in, then.
13:09Watch your head on the way in.
13:11Oh, you'd better let me out.
13:12I've got work in the morning.
13:14Yeah, we're getting to customs.
13:15Get him booked in.
13:16See what he blows, if he blows.
13:17And then we'll go from there, really.
13:18I mean, clearly from his demeanance,
13:19he's under the influence of something or other.
13:20Oi!
13:21Move.
13:22Two minutes, two minutes.
13:23Open the door.
13:24Don't smash the window.
13:25Listen.
13:26You get yourself into more bother.
13:27Don't smash the window.
13:28You're mad.
13:29Right.
13:30What are you doing?
13:31Exactly.
13:32We'll get a van, then.
13:33I'm a Rafford boy, yeah?
13:34Right.
13:35You're from round here.
13:36A little pushy state, a little pushy state.
13:37A little pushy state.
13:38A little pushy state.
13:39A little pushy state.
13:40A little pushy state.
13:41A little pushy state.
13:42A little pushy state.
13:45A little pushy state.
13:46A little pushy state.
13:47A little pushy state.
13:48A little pushy state.
13:49Yeah.
13:50I'm from this state much.
13:51Oi, he's here, my boy.
13:53Ready?
13:54Don't pull me.
13:55Get off my arm.
13:56Get off my arm, and I will walk to the van.
14:00I will get in the back of the van.
14:02I'll let you put me in the cage like a dog, yeah?
14:05Get off my arm.
14:07Listen, don't pull me.
14:09Listen, come on.
14:10Stop playing, Sidney.
14:12Get off me now.
14:13Get off me.
14:14You're not going to get yourself lots up for a soft blues if you're kicking out.
14:19Get in there.
14:20What are you pushing?
14:21Stop this dude.
14:22Tell him to get away.
14:23Tell him to get away.
14:24Get away then.
14:25Get away then.
14:26Listen to me.
14:27Listen to me.
14:28Listen, me and you being friends here.
14:29Come on in there.
14:30Tell him to get away from me.
14:31Lee, just get off him.
14:32There you go.
14:33Good boy.
14:34Come on then.
14:35Sit down.
14:36Good boy.
14:37Don't like me, do you?
14:38Don't like me, do you?
14:39Don't like me, do you?
14:40Don't like me, do you?
14:41Don't like me, do you?
14:54I mean, from the office, he was testing.
14:56See it day in, day out.
14:57Don't wash from me.
14:58Just don't rise to it really.
14:59If you rise to it, you just make your job difficult for yourself.
15:28I would say that's a result.
15:40You know, would he have gone back, got back in that car in an hour's time and drove elsewhere?
15:45Probably.
15:46So, would we potentially save someone's life today?
15:53Always makes a job more interesting when you deal with characters.
15:57Yeah, he definitely wanted me to understand that he was from Bradford.
16:01Funnily enough, I don't think I'm going to be on his Christmas card list.
16:04Unless he has any spare cards.
16:06And he remembers me.
16:08As maybe the Humberside Boyo.
16:11From the Bradford Boyo to the Humberside Boyo.
16:13Maybe.
16:14Maybe.
16:26.
16:27Just kitting up, ready to go out.
16:28Making sure we've got everything from the of us for the day.
16:30Probably not the messiest locker but it's not too bad.
16:33I've got all the essentials in here.
16:35Coffee pods, extra paperwork, pens, gym clothes, everything I might want to eat.
16:41The only thing missing for PC Luke Thundercliffe...
16:44Are you ready, Luke?
16:46..is a partner in crime.
16:48You don't deserve a top locker, Luke.
16:50I'm sadier than yours.
16:51I guarantee you've said that you've got some gym gear in there.
16:54You definitely don't have any gym gear. You don't go to the gym.
16:56The only thing you'll find in there is a few Mars bars and some paperweight.
16:59Let's have a look.
17:00There's no Mars bars.
17:01Are they in your high heels?
17:03Have you got your big boy pants on today?
17:04I've got your big boy pants on today.
17:11As they hit the roads of Hull,
17:17Joe's further investigating Luke's crimes against fashion.
17:22Oh, he's got some glasses on. Hey, they look better than yours.
17:27It's cost too much.
17:32What's your most cherished fashion accessory?
17:35Probably my AirDog and trainers.
17:38Sure, I've seen you walking the dogging Crocs.
17:41Absolutely not.
17:42Nope, absolutely not.
17:45See that cow with a couple of planks of us sticking up the passenger side?
18:10Yeah.
18:11All right.
18:12If he clicks a pedestrian or a cyclist, you're going to wipe them out.
18:16It's quite big bits, aren't they?
18:17Afternoon, driver.
18:18I've just obviously seen the planks of the wood sticking out.
18:19Yeah.
18:20If you was to drive by a cyclist or a pedestrian and you was to hit them,
18:24from behind, you're going to cause them some serious injury.
18:25I thought he was allowed so many inches.
18:26It's not.
18:27It's outside your vehicle, isn't it?
18:28It's not even strapped down or anything.
18:29Just jump out for me.
18:30Is it your car you all insured?
18:31Yeah.
18:32Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:33Just have a quick look at these planks of the wood.
18:34If you were to brake harshly, I know your mates holding them, but you were to brake harshly,
18:36they're just going to go straight forward, aren't they?
18:37I thought you were allowed so far and he's holding it.
18:38I thought you were allowed so far and he's holding it.
18:39I thought you were allowed so far and he's holding it.
18:40If you were to drive by a cyclist or a pedestrian and you were to hit them from behind, you're
18:42going to cause them some serious injury.
18:43I thought he was allowed so many inches.
18:46It's not.
18:47It's outside your vehicle, isn't it?
18:48It's not even strapped down or anything.
18:51Just jump out for me.
18:52Is it your car you all insured, yeah?
18:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:55Just have a quick look at these planks of the wood.
18:58If you were to brake harshly, I know your mate's holding them, but you were to brake harshly,
19:01they're just going to go straight forward, aren't they?
19:03I thought you were allowed so far and he's holding it.
19:06Your mate's not even wearing a seatbelt.
19:10That needs to be over your shoulder, pal.
19:12It's there for your safety, isn't it?
19:14As well as going through the windscreen, you've got to get a few splinters as well, aren't you?
19:18Yeah.
19:19Right.
19:20Let's have a quick chat in the back of my cap.
19:25Watch your head on the way, Ian.
19:27Are you in?
19:28Yep, yep, yep.
19:29You can't leave it like that.
19:30So yeah, you two just go in and carry them.
19:31Yeah, no worries.
19:32I mean, for future reference, I mean, obviously I don't recommend carrying anything that's
19:46longer than the internal of your vehicle.
19:50Yeah.
19:51What's the wood for?
19:52Just doing bits in my shed, I know.
19:54Just building a bench and everything.
19:56They reckon they're going to beat you home.
19:58Might have your shed built for you when you get home.
20:00Don't do milk for me, that lad.
20:02Well, he's carried the wood for you, huh?
20:05Well, yeah.
20:06It's not because I've sold him.
20:09Long story short, you're going to be a part of consideration of prosecuting for the
20:12offence of using a vehicle within an intercooler, likely to cause danger.
20:16I understand it all, I do.
20:18Yeah.
20:19I shouldn't have done it, but I've done it.
20:21I'm not going to run my own telly now, am I?
20:23The short answer is yes.
20:26I watch it every day.
20:28Yeah.
20:29Yeah, every day.
20:30I sit there myself saying how stupid they are, and look what I've done.
20:35Thanks for your time.
20:36I'll let you out.
20:39All right, see you later.
20:40I hope I don't see you later.
20:53Bit of education, he took it on the chain.
20:55You said he sees insecure loads all the time.
21:01On motorway cocks.
21:02On motorway cocks, yeah.
21:03Drive round with planks of wood like that, what's he expecting?
21:06Yeah, you're going to get noticed, aren't you?
21:08All for a cheap shed.
21:09Let's see what Mrs Leek's packed me up to date.
21:26Smokey bacon crisps.
21:28Oh, legendary tunnocks.
21:32And a Bakewell.
21:33And a Bakewell.
21:34Must have been good to Mrs Leek.
21:37Epitome of a traffic man's diet, is that?
21:41PC Martin Leek will never get his fill of the Humberside patch.
21:45I'm a South Bank boy, born and bred on the South Bank.
21:50So I did my learning years, if you like, as a response officer in Grimsby,
21:55which was good.
21:56It's a bit of a unique area to police sometimes,
21:58because you police everything from farms to council estates.
22:02This is my 40th year, and I've just completed my 10th year of service.
22:11As a new officer, you come in, you're very hungry,
22:13you want to prove yourself to your colleagues and your peers.
22:16What you always have to remember is your first job as a probationary officer
22:19is making sure you can make tea and coffee proficiently for the rest of your team.
22:23And once your pastors, what we call, safe to go out on your own,
22:27commonly referred to as, now you can make a good brew,
22:30that's your first milestone.
22:44Pretty sure on this car, he's just ahead of us.
22:50Showing there's no insurance and an expired MOT.
22:54It's come along here somewhere, I believe.
23:00It's there.
23:07That's literally just come and pulled up there, isn't it?
23:09Why?
23:10Yeah, I've stood next to it.
23:19Here you go.
23:21Push through and see if we can...
23:23He'll have ducked down the side street somewhere, he's probably seen us coming.
23:34Where's he gone?
23:38It's around here somewhere.
23:41Yes, there he is.
23:42Just gone into the garage here.
23:45That's him, that's the bloke who was stuck with it.
23:47The path to true love never runs smoothly.
24:04Whoa!
24:06Idiots!
24:07Especially on Britain's roads.
24:10It starts with a brief encounter.
24:14Bloody hell!
24:16Then worries about a lack of commitment.
24:18Ooh!
24:22Don't just suddenly stop.
24:23So be prepared for some heart breaks.
24:30But don't give up.
24:32One day that someone special might just...
24:35pop the question.
24:36Showing there's no insurance in an expired M.O.T.
24:48That's him, that's the bloke who was stuck with it.
24:51In Grimsby, Martin has tracked down a van driver with no insurance.
24:57Right, let's see.
24:58Now, is this your van?
25:06Yes, mate.
25:07A bit of tea today, mate, yeah.
25:08Yeah, okay.
25:09What about your insurance?
25:10Oh, literally, yeah.
25:12Insurance?
25:13Yeah?
25:14Have you got insurance?
25:15Should have or you have?
25:16Because most people tend to know if they're insured.
25:18So come on.
25:20Where are you going?
25:21Dallas, mate.
25:23I'm just going to ask you to come and give a chat in the back of the car with me, alright?
25:26We'll just, we'll do a little bit of digging to find out what's going on.
25:29So, yeah, just grab a seat in there for me.
25:33Right.
25:39I'm stressed out of ****, mate.
25:41Right, okay.
25:42Can't catch up ****, you know, can't get paid off jobs, it's just ****ing me.
25:46What do you do for a living? Are you a tradesman?
25:47Yeah, ping dick away and stuff.
25:49Nah, it's just relentless and stressful, isn't it? It's just...
25:52Right, okay.
25:53Um...
25:54So...
25:55Have you found proof of your insurance?
25:57Yeah, it's just...
25:59You normally have them on files and that, but I'm not...
26:01Academically, I'm thick.
26:03I'm sure that's not the case.
26:06We can all get confused.
26:07It doesn't mean you're thick, does it?
26:09There's so many, so many documents they can send you.
26:11They're spinning.
26:13I said, just take, take them in, alright?
26:14There's no, no rush, so...
26:15There's no rush, so...
26:16It is here somewhere.
26:21Should...
26:22I didn't get it all.
26:23It should all be legit.
26:27That's who I'm with them.
26:30Ah, right.
26:31So...
26:32Unfortunately, sir, they've cancelled your policy.
26:37When?
26:38As of the 23rd of the 8th.
26:39It's actually yesterday.
26:40Unfortunately, it's been cancelled.
26:41You know what I mean?
26:42It's like...
26:43Yeah, I get the frustration.
26:44I do, but ultimately...
26:45I didn't even read my email, to be honest with you.
26:46Yeah.
26:47In a paving month, I should have been insured on that.
26:48Yeah.
26:49So, like I say, I can't...
26:50I've got to deal with the fact that that's it, yeah?
26:51No, you're doing your job, mate.
26:52But ultimately, it's a moving traffic offence.
26:53So, I'm going to do a roadside drug wipe with you.
26:54Ah.
26:55For your sake, man.
26:56Do you ever use any vocational drugs at all?
26:57No, not yet, yeah.
26:58I don't know.
26:59Do you?
27:00What do you...
27:01What do you...
27:02It's okay.
27:03No, I don't know.
27:04It's okay.
27:05No, I don't know.
27:06I don't know.
27:07I don't know.
27:08I don't know.
27:09I don't know.
27:10I don't know.
27:11I don't know.
27:12I don't know.
27:13Do you ever use any vocational drugs at all?
27:14No, I don't know.
27:15Do you?
27:16What do you...
27:17It's okay, normally, but yeah.
27:18Is it?
27:19And when was the last time you did that?
27:20I can't remember.
27:21A few days ago, to be fair.
27:22Yeah.
27:23Okay, no worries.
27:24Just open wide for us.
27:25Right.
27:26All the way out.
27:27That's it.
27:28Thanks.
27:29I appreciate it.
27:30It's not very pleasant.
27:31No, I don't know.
27:32It's just one day, isn't it?
27:34One of them once.
27:35You have tested positive for cocaine.
27:38All right, so you can see the second line there.
27:42Um, so...
27:43I'd love to say, you are going to be arrested on suspicion
27:45of driving what's over the specified limit
27:47for a specified drug limit.
27:48Ah, quit, man.
27:50It's just...
27:53Yeah.
27:57Nah-ta, mate.
27:59Getting nicked, like, now, lad.
28:00Getting nicked.
28:01I'm absolutely fuming.
28:03What?
28:04I have to be tied out.
28:05Don't worry.
28:06I have crashed.
28:07Automatic braking on these is horrible.
28:08You're blaming your tools?
28:09Yeah.
28:10It's the first time I've been invested in Groomsby, I think.
28:11I have to be tied out.
28:12I don't have to leave it, I think.
28:13I only have to let it go.
28:14Nah.
28:15She's going to have to wait, I think.
28:16She's going to have to wait, I think.
28:17You should go up in this morning.
28:19Oh.
28:21That's the first time I've ever been invested in Groomsby, I think.
28:28You're going to have to wait, I think.
28:29I need to try that.
28:32I guess I don't...
28:33I do not have to leave it, I think.
28:34I only have to let it go.
28:36Nah-ha.
28:37She's going to have to wait, I think.
28:39Ah, not her car goof on in this morning.
28:42Oh.
28:47He's a character. I think sometimes it's nervousness that gets the better of them, and they don't quite know what to say, so it just becomes verbal diarrhea, and they just continually talk, talk, and talk.
29:11I think we're all guilty of it at times, aren't we? Just waffling on, but to be fair, rather have them like that, chatting away, than fighting, and all the other sorts of attitudes that we can get from people.
29:35These mats absolutely stink.
29:38Screw them.
29:41So today's car cleaning day, we all get together in the morning when we can, go through the fleet, give them all a good clean, make it look nice, make it smell nice, and not too minging.
29:54PC Wade Cruz is tough on grime, and the causes of grime.
30:00It just says new car, must be a new car smell.
30:04Yeah, it's all been cleaned down, nicely validated. If I keep it looking this way, I'm sure it'll change.
30:11So today we're going to be south of the River Humber. My preference to work in it is to come to the south of the bridge.
30:32If you know where you are, that's half a battle.
30:40I was actually born in Middlesex, not really can tell by my voice.
30:44So yeah, born down south and moved up to Scunford when I was probably about four or five years old, something like that.
30:51And then I've been between Grimsby and Scunford ever since.
30:54Yeah, it's not common.
30:55The car in front, it seems to be absolutely full with parcels.
31:21When it's gone past, I couldn't see into the passenger side window. It was out of full.
31:29There's no way that that driver's coming out to see where they're going properly.
31:34It's an accident waiting to happen.
31:39So I'm just going to find a safe place to stop and see what's going on.
31:44There's a vehicle to stop, stop, buy it, send a card.
31:54Hello.
31:55You knew I was going to stop you, didn't you?
31:57Sorry mate, this is very bad.
31:59Okay.
32:00So the reason why I'm going to stop you.
32:02Yeah.
32:03It's because how can you see out that window?
32:05Okay, I try.
32:06Are you delivering out of your parcels?
32:10Honestly, I've never seen a vehicle with so much stuff in it.
32:13It's such a small vehicle.
32:15Yeah, that's not suitable, is it?
32:18You need a van.
32:19Yeah, next month.
32:21Next month?
32:21Yeah, I need a van.
32:23You need a van now, don't you?
32:24Money.
32:25Yeah.
32:29Come take a seat in the back of the car, we'll do a couple of checks.
32:31Let's see.
32:36So that, that's dangerous.
32:41What if a cyclist comes towards you at a crossroad?
32:45You've got a little tiny hole.
32:47Okay.
32:48These three windows you need to see through, okay?
32:53Nice.
32:54Take my first to be.
32:58Echo have their markers, insurance held, social domestic, and pleasure.
33:03Also, your insurance.
33:04My husband, tell me the car is insurance.
33:09It's insured.
33:10Okay.
33:11But it's not insured for business.
33:13Ah, yes.
33:14Yes.
33:14I use my car as business.
33:16Yep, you haven't got business insurance.
33:19You've got the cheapest in social, domestic, and pleasure.
33:22So just driving to the shop's okay.
33:25I'm sorry.
33:26It's okay.
33:26It's different in my car.
33:28You've got a UK license, English license.
33:37Yeah, international.
33:38International license.
33:39This.
33:40I have a picture.
33:42What country is that from?
33:44Brazil.
33:45I live in.
33:45Brazil?
33:46Yeah.
33:46How long have you lived in the UK for?
33:48Three years.
33:48You've been in the UK for three years, okay?
33:54Your driving permit is only valid for one year in the UK.
33:58One year.
33:59One year.
33:59Okay.
34:00At which point, you have to take a UK driving test to get a license, which you've not done.
34:07It's not valid in my place.
34:08It's not valid, no.
34:11So you're driving that car now without a license.
34:17So you need to take a test.
34:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:20I go.
34:20On the road.
34:21I did, I did.
34:22Oh, okay.
34:22Yes.
34:23The UK one.
34:25Oh, my God.
34:31So I'm going to have to seize your vehicle.
34:34You take it?
34:35Yes.
34:35Oh, okay.
34:35When someone with a full UK license and insurance comes along, pays a fee, you can pick the vehicle
34:43up.
34:44Oh, my God.
34:46Come let you out.
34:48There we go.
35:05Well, that was an interesting little stop, wasn't it?
35:10Hopefully, all those parcels won't get picked up today by a boss.
35:13If not, then there'll be a lot of people very, very angry asking for refunds, weren't there?
35:19I wonder where the parcel is.
35:20I couldn't believe how many parcels were actually in that vehicle, but it was a proper treasure
35:26chest.
35:27I think Santa would even be impressive amount of parcels that managed to fit into that car,
35:31sir.
35:31I just need to check your way back, let's look at your little boots.
35:59They're very shiny.
36:02Do a little twirl for me.
36:03I'll show you.
36:06We're doing all right.
36:07We've got everything we need.
36:09It looks nice and tidy on the vest tonight.
36:12Proud to call you my student tonight.
36:14Seven out of ten.
36:16I won't show you one.
36:17Trainee motorway cop, PC Kieran McLeod, is teaming up with PC Emily Green, who has four
36:26years in the driving seat.
36:28I'd like you to do all the checks in the car, please, Kieran, before we go out for the
36:33night.
36:33I'll be marking you off, one by one, if you're doing them.
36:36Please don't.
36:38I'll just get my red pen out.
36:41What are you doing now, Kieran?
36:44I'm checking out all the lights are working, the emergency lights in the vehicle.
36:47Can you just put the headlights on and...
36:48Of course I can.
36:49For you?
36:50All good, Master.
36:55I'm raring to go.
36:56Great job.
36:57Let's go.
37:08As parents to young children, Emily and Kieran put in the night shifts at home, as well
37:14as work.
37:15You're having sleepless nights at the minute, with little one?
37:21No, to be fair, he's a really good sleeper.
37:24I just wish that I was as good as him, because I don't sleep.
37:28I'm feeling quite refreshing on you, actually.
37:30Are you?
37:30I'm glad you are.
37:32I need my sleep.
37:34What might say, a beauty sleep?
37:36Well, you clearly need some of it, yes.
37:38Yes.
37:39Yes.
37:45He's travelling.
38:07Species this guy going out.
38:09100, I'm up.
38:10Tang Mike 31, I'm just M62 westbound, just approaching Junction 35.
38:22I've just got a vehicle travelling 100.
38:24He hasn't reacted to my presence at this time.
38:28I'm in a marked Volvo and Pursuit Management train with a Stinger on board.
38:34Yeah, that's pretty.
38:34There's quite a heavy amount of traffic.
38:38I've got about five vehicles in lane one.
38:41My plan is, after I get past, I look to put a compliance stop in.
38:573-1, it's a stop, stop, hard shoulder.
39:00Hello.
39:01Just take the vehicle off from his place.
39:03That stinks like weed.
39:05Jump out for me.
39:15Join us bird watching on Britain's roads, where there are always feathers flying.
39:21Oh, s***.
39:23Listen out for exotic bird song.
39:26Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, my God, Derek, Derek, keep back.
39:31The screech of a night owl.
39:35No, he sounds fast, I am.
39:38And driving that is totally cuckoo.
39:42Whoa!
39:43So, keep your eyes peeled, you might just spot a driver winging it.
39:56The car stinks like weed.
39:58Jump out for me.
40:00It's close to midnight on the M62.
40:03Emily and Kieran have stopped a driver doing over 100.
40:07And they suspect it's not just his speed that's high.
40:11Come and grab a seat.
40:153-1, yes, yes.
40:16We've got driver detained.
40:17When did you last time you used cannabis?
40:21Earlier, mate.
40:22Earlier?
40:22Earlier, yeah.
40:30Because I can smell cannabis and you've admitted to taking cannabis, I'm going to swipe you for it, okay?
40:34Hey, stick your tongue out for me.
40:39So it takes eight minutes.
40:40What brings you to Humberside?
40:45I've just been to all fair.
40:47Spend a lot of money?
40:49Yeah, a little bit.
40:51So the reason why we initially stopped you is your speed.
40:54What's the speed limit on the motorway?
40:5670.
40:57And what was you doing?
40:58I believe I was doing just over 80.
41:03Yep.
41:03Just over 80, am I right?
41:05Any more?
41:06I'm sure it was at, it might have, sorry, it might have been at 85.
41:10We, we, we, we clotched it at one point at 100.
41:13Just over 100.
41:14Really?
41:15Yeah.
41:20It's because there's a strong smell of cannabis and they've admitted to smoking cannabis.
41:24We're just doing a Section 23 misuse of drug tax search.
41:30I'll explain the test for you.
41:32There's a line come up on the other side, which is a test line,
41:34so it's tested positive for cannabis.
41:37I'm arresting you on suspicion of Section 5A, the road traffic act.
41:40Basically, that's driving a motor vehicle.
41:42There's a specified limit to a drug in your system, i.e. cannabis.
41:47Do you understand that?
41:51Is there any cannabis in the car?
41:53Er, no, man, there isn't.
41:54Have you found cannabis?
42:06Yeah.
42:07Lex has found a small amount of cannabis, er, in the vehicle.
42:10Who's in?
42:12Who's in?
42:12The driver's side.
42:16We found some small bit of cannabis in your car.
42:20Right, you're favour and arrest, possession of a controlled substance, believed to be cannabis.
42:25Sorry, man, I don't even know this.
42:26Have you ever been caught with cannabis before?
42:28I have, mate, yes.
42:30Once, er, they gave me, er, it was like a warning, I think.
42:34A warning?
42:34Yeah.
42:37You getting any help for your drug use, mate?
42:39My mum keeps on trying to get me to get on it, but no, I don't get any.
42:42It's a professional, no.
42:44All right, buddy.
42:44We'll try and get that sorted, all right?
42:45Yeah, definitely.
42:53Right, we'll get him back to club.
42:54It's a proper lesson learned, like, I can't believe it.
43:02I'll just come in to a whole fair and then I never would imagine my night in like this.
43:07Maybe start off by not driving like an idiot, okay?
43:11Understood, yeah.
43:24Good result.
43:39Good result around really, wasn't it?
43:41It's a fun night at Hull Fair.
43:43Didn't turn out so fun.
43:47Yeah, have you ever been to Hull Fair?
43:49No, I haven't, actually.
43:50Have you not?
43:50No, from being the sunny South Bank, I haven't really put myself through that yet.
43:56It makes Hull famous, though.
43:57It does Hull fair.
43:59It's all the time as a kid, but I try to avoid it now.
44:02I'm not exactly the best on rides.
44:04Oh, see, I love rides.
44:05It's just something we've never really done.
44:08He should have kept his thrill-seeking at the fair, shouldn't he?
44:11He definitely should have.
44:12He also thought he was still on the dodgens, bless him.
44:14If you have any dashcam clips you think could feature in the next series of motorway cops,
44:29catching Britain's speeders, send them, along with your contact details, too.
44:33Contact us at purpleproductions.co.uk
44:37We'll see you next time.
45:07Bye-bye.
