00:00It'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 here at the end of the day.
00:53Nearly done, are you?
00:56Rock and roll before causing any more chaos now.
00:59I think our expectations were a little bit high.
01:08Crash. Bang. Wallop.
01:12When it comes to bad driving, dashcam never lies.
01:18With Britain's worst offenders racking up a whopping three million points.
01:25It's a bell to start. Stay camping.
01:29Locking up the most dangerous people on our roads are the motorway cops.
01:34What better stuff to do, bro? We're chasing 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 don't listen to us!
01:44As they fight to keep the roads safe.
01:46Pass, pass.
01:47You've 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,
01:56Are you coming for me, guys?
01:58I'm doing my own granny for speeding.
02:00You're looking at so many points atop of the Premier League.
02:04I've been very busy.
02:05Helping them in their battle with idiots behind the wheel is dashcam.
02:10See if she's got dashcam in her car.
02:12It's vital evidence.
02:14And 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's back like 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 a police man. No, I won't.
02:41No, what? Drag me. Drag me there!
02:44How can you see out that window?
02:46The cops deliver us 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 gonna 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?
03:10We clutch at 1.900.
03:12100.
03:18Connecting the north and south banks of its river,
03:20the Humber Bridge took eight years to build
03:23and spans well over a mile.
03:26And the motorway cops of Humberside Police
03:28couldn't live without it.
03:30At Melton Police Station, on the north side,
03:38one officer is investigating his first crime of the day.
03:42I'm just gonna grab a colleague's hat,
03:46because mine's definitely not being misplaced.
03:48It's definitely being stolen.
03:49So, er...
03:50Just gotta try and find one that fits me.
03:55I'd like to say I've got an average size head
03:57for an average guy,
03:58but...
03:59colleagues probably think I might have a big head.
04:02Look at that.
04:03He's got two hats.
04:07Do you reckon?
04:08Fits me?
04:12For PC Joe Gorman,
04:14there's no escaping
04:15the long arm
04:16of the law.
04:17Nice.
04:20Practical joke.
04:30I'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.
04:37I absolutely love having such a huge playground
04:39and dealing with all different kinds of people.
04:42It's a good craft.
04:43Today, we're North Bank for 12 hours.
04:48Probably gonna focus more
04:49in 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 going to say he's potentially drunk.
05:28Oh, interesting.
05:29Time to go November 1-1.
05:34Go ahead.
05:36Whereabouts from the M62?
05:37Where's that sighted, please?
05:38The informant stated that it just approached the ferry bridge services.
05:42I've got a red Vauxhall Astra insurance showing help to a Scumself address.
05:52I'm going to presume it's going to go back to the home address.
05:55So, we're all start making in that direction.
06:02It's already collided with another vehicle.
06:04Chances are, probably going to be a driver under the influence.
06:08Which, when you combine drinking and drunk driving with motorway speeds,
06:13when it goes wrong, it goes really wrong.
06:16Motorists, under the influence, cost lives.
06:19In the UK, nearly 7,000 people are killed or injured by drink drivers every year.
06:24It's 1am, south of the Humber, and a drink driver takes a roundabout too fast,
06:36with Humberside police sitting right behind him.
06:41The cops light him up.
06:43But instead of stopping, the driver makes a break for it through the town.
06:48He cuts across a roundabout.
06:49Tears through junctions.
06:54And flies down a narrow one-way street, the wrong way.
07:01The boozed-up driver barrels out cross-country and becomes even more reckless.
07:06Hitting speeds of 80 miles per hour, and nearly coming off on a corner.
07:11But he still can't shake the cops.
07:13The driver pushes it on another sharp bend.
07:19Where his luck finally runs out.
07:24The driver was convicted of dangerous driving and drink driving,
07:30and sentenced to 28 weeks in jail, suspended for 15 months.
07:34He was fined £150, and banned from driving for 15 months.
07:39I've got a drunk driver, Brian, I'm an absolute idiot.
07:44Near Sconthorpe.
07:46Joe is racing to catch up with a potential drink driver he suspects is heading home.
07:52We'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.
08:08On the side police, what's the emergency?
08:13I've just seen a car come off the road.
08:15He went round the cyclist and he's skiddy off the road.
08:18We tried to help him.
08:19I am 90% sure I can start alcohol on his breath.
08:22Hang in November 1-1, reports of an RTC involving that red Asherah.
08:35Oh-ho-ho-ho.
08:39Must have been ahead of us. Must have been.
08:43The report we've had is that the bumper's hanging off, which is quite worrying.
08:47It's unbelievable. It's carried on driving, really.
08:51I do want to get this car quite badly.
08:54I don't know if I prevent anybody else from getting hurt or even killed.
09:05Oh, there we go.
09:08Look at the state of that.
09:10There's a rogues gallery of motorists on Britain's roads.
09:24And it's not a pretty picture.
09:29From sketchy manoeuvres...
09:31Oh, my God! Jesus!
09:35What the f*** is that?
09:36What the f*** is that?
09:37All the way to Van Gogh...
09:43...and the scream.
09:45No!
09:46No!
09:48No!
09:51Driving like this is quite simply...
09:55...a load of Jackson Pollocks.
09:57I've just seen the car come off the road.
09:59I am 90% sure I can start with alcohol industry.
10:01Report of an RTC emboldened that red Asherah.
10:03Oh, there we go.
10:04It's 11am, and Joe has tracked down the suspected drink driver to his home address.
10:0610 of November, 1-1.
10:071-1.
10:08Yeah, this vehicle's packed up on the insured parties Street.
10:09We're trying to get some mob patrols to meet us down it.

10:56the fact that somebody's driven home in this condition

15:33I would say that's a result.
15:40Would he have got back in that car in an hour's time
15:43and drove elsewhere, probably?
15:46So, would we potentially save someone's life today?
15:53Always makes a job more interesting
15:54in dealing with characters.
15:57Yeah, he definitely wanted me to understand
16:00that he was from Bradford.
16:01Funnily enough, I don't think I'm going to be honest,
16:03Christmas card list.
16:04Unless he has any spare cards
16:06and he remembers me.
16:08That's maybe the Humberside Boyo.
16:11From the Bradford Boyo to the Humberside Boyo.
16:13Maybe.
16:26So, I'm just kitting up, ready to go out,
16:28make sure we've got everything with us for the day.
16:30Probably not the messiest locker, but it's not too bad.
16:32It's got all the essentials in here.
16:35Coffee pods, extra paperwork, pens, gym clothes,
16:40everything a man will need.
16:41The only thing missing for PC Luke Thundercliffe...
16:44Are you ready, Luke?
16:45...is a partner in crime.
16:48You don't deserve to talk a lot, Luke.
16:50It's higher 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.
16:55You don't go to the gym.
16:56The only thing you'll find in there
16:57is a few Mars bars and some paper work.
16:59Let's have a look.
17:00There's no Mars bars.
17:01Are they your high heels?
17:02Have you got your big boy pants on today?
17:04I've got your big boy pants on.
17:05As they hit the roads of Hull,
17:18Joe's further investigating Luke's crimes against fashion.
17:25Oh, he's got some glasses on.
17:26Hey, they look better than yours.
17:27Those cost too much.
17:29What's your most cherished fashion accessory?
17:37Probably my dog and trainers.
17:40Have you ever seen you walking the dog in Crocs?
17:42Absolutely not.
17:45No, absolutely not.
17:46See that cow with a couple of planks of wood sticking up the passenger side?
18:10Yeah.
18:10If you click to a pedestrian or a cyclist,
18:18you're going to wipe them out.
18:20It's quite big bits, aren't it?
18:32Afternoon, driver.
18:34I've just obviously seen the planks of wood sticking out.
18:36If you was to drive by a cyclist or a pedestrian
18:39and you was to hit them from behind,
18:41you're going to cause them some serious injury.
18:43I thought it was allowed so many inches.
18:46It's not.
18:46It's outside your vehicle, isn't it?
18:48It's not even strapped down or anything.
18:50Just jump out for me.
18:52Is it your car you're all insured?
18:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:55Just have a quick look at these planks of wood.
18:57If you was to break harshly,
18:59I know your mate's holding them,
19:00but you was to break harshly,
19:01they're just going to go straight forward, aren't they?
19:02I thought you were the loud 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?
19:15As well as going through the windscreen,
19:16you're going to get a few splinters as well, aren't you?
19:18Yeah.
19:19Right.
19:20Just have a quick chat in the back of my cow.
19:25Watch your head on the way in.
19:26Are you in?
19:27Yep, yep, yep.
19:28You can't leave it like that.
19:35So, yeah, you two just got in and carry them.
19:37Yeah, no worries.
19:40I mean, for future reference,
19:43I mean, obviously don't recommend carrying anything
19:46that's longer than the internal of your vehicle.
19:50What's the wood for?
19:51Just doing bits of my shed, I know.
19:54Just building a bench and everything.
19:56They reckon they're going to beat you home.
19:59Might have your shed built for you when you get home.
20:00Don't do a note for me, that lad.
20:03Well, he's carried the wood for you.
20:04Well, yeah.
20:06It's like cos I've told him.
20:08Long story short,
20:09you're going to be a part of consideration
20:10of prosecuting you for the offence of
20:12using a vehicle with an intercure load,
20:14likely to cause danger.
20:16I understand it all, I do.
20:18Yeah.
20:18I shouldn't have done it, but I've done it.
20:21I'm not going to be on telling now, am I?
20:23The short answer is yes.
20:26I watch it every day.
20:28Yeah.
20:29Yeah, every day.
20:30Cos I sit there myself saying how stupid you are,
20:33and look what I've done.
20:35Thanks for your time.
20:36I'll let you out.
20:39All right, do you know,
20:40say hello, and I'll see you later.
20:41Bit of education, he took it on the chain.
20:58He said he sees intercure loads all the time.
21:01On motorway cocks.
21:02On motorway cocks, yeah.
21:03Drive round with planks of wood like that,
21:05what'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.
21:27Smokey bacon crisps.
21:29Oh, legendary tunnocks.
21:32And a bakewell.
21:33And a bakewell.
21:34Must have been good to Mrs. Leek.
21:36It's pretty near a traffic man's diet, is that?
21:41PC Martin Leek will never get his fill
21:44of the Humberside patch.
21:48I'm a South Bank boy, born and bred on the South Bank.
21:50So I did my learning years, if you like,
21:54as a response officer in Grimsby, which was good.
21:56It's a bit of a unique area to police sometimes,
21:58cos you police everything from farms to council estates.
22:02This is my 40th year,
22:08and 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,
22:18your first job as a probationary officer
22:19is making sure you can make tea and coffee proficiently
22:22for the rest of your team.
22:23And once your past is what we call safe to go out on your own,
22:27commonly referred to as,
22:28now you can make a good brew,
22:30erm, that's your first milestone.
22:43Pretty short on this guy.
22:45He's just ahead of us.
22:49Showing there's no insurance and an expired MOT.
22:54It's come along here somewhere, I believe.
22:58It's there.
23:06That's literally just come and pulled up there, isn't it?
23:10Yeah, I'm stood next to it.
23:21Push through and see if we can...
23:23He'll have ducked down the side street somewhere.
23:31He'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.
23:45That's the bloke who was stuck with it.
23:47The path to true love never runs smoothly.
24:04Whoa!
24:05Idiots!
24:06Especially on Britain's roads.
24:08It starts with a brief encounter.
24:13Bloody hell!
24:15Then worries about a lack of commitment.
24:18Ooh!
24:21Don't just suddenly...
24:22Oh.
24:24So be prepared for some heart breaks.
24:30But don't give up.
24:31One day that someone special might just pop the question.
24:42Showing there's no insurance and an expired MOT.
24:48That's him.
24:49That's the bloke who was stuck with it.
24:51In Grimsby, Martin has tracked down a van driver with no insurance.
24:56Right, let's see.
24:57Now, is this your van?
25:06Yes, mate.
25:06The silver van.
25:07I'm taking tea today, mate, yeah.
25:08Yeah, okay.
25:09What about your insurance?
25:10Um, literally, yeah.
25:11Uh, insurance?
25:12Yeah?
25:13Have you got insurance?
25:14Yeah, yeah.
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.
25:23Just come and give a chat in the back of the car with me, all right?
25:26We'll just, we'll do a little bit of digging to find out what's going on.
25:28So, yeah, just grab, grab a seat in there for me.
25:33Right.
25:39I'm stressed out of f***ing, mate.
25:40Right, okay.
25:42Can't catch you up, f***ing, you know?
25:44Can't get paid off jobs, it's just f***ing me, all right?
25:46What do you do for a living?
25:46Are you a tradesman here?
25:47Yeah, ping dick away and stuff.
25:49It's just relentless and stressful, isn't it?
25:51It's just...
25:52Right, okay.
25:53Um, so, have you found proof of your insurance?
25:57Yeah, it's just f***ing.
25:59You normally have them on files and that, but I'm not academic, like I'm thick.
26:03I'm sure that's not the case.
26:05We 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 a minute, all right?
26:14There's no, no rush, so...
26:15It is here somewhere.
26:21Should...
26:21I don't get it all.
26:22It should all be legit.
26:26Let's see if I'm with them.
26:30Ah, right.
26:35So, unfortunately, sir, they've cancelled your policy.
26:40When?
26:41As of the 23rd of the 8th.
26:42So, it's yesterday.
26:44Unfortunately, it's been cancelled.
26:45You know what I mean?
26:46Yeah, I get the frustration.
26:48I do, but ultimately...
26:49I didn't even read my email, to be honest with you.
26:50Yeah.
26:51And I pay every month.
26:52I should have been insured in that.
26:53Yeah.
26:54So, like I say, I can't...
26:55I've got to deal with the fact that that's it.
26:57You're doing your job, mate.
26:58But ultimately, it's a moving traffic offence.
27:00So, I'm going to do a roadside drug wipe with you.
27:07Sorry, man.
27:09Do you ever use any vocational drugs at all?
27:11No, yeah, yeah.
27:12Do you?
27:13What do you...
27:14It's okay, normally.
27:15Is it?
27:16And when was the last time you did that?
27:18I can't remember.
27:19A few days ago.
27:20Yeah.
27:20Okay, mate.
27:21No worries.
27:21Just open wide for us.
27:23Right.
27:24All the way out.
27:24That's it.
27:25Thanks.
27:26I appreciate it.
27:26It's not very pleasant.
27:27No, no.
27:27You have tested positive for cocaine.
27:37All right.
27:38So, you can see the second line there.
27:41So, I'd love to say you are going to be arrested on suspicion of driving what's over the specified limit for a specified drug limit.
27:48Oh, f***ing quit, man.
27:50It's just...
27:51It's just...
27:52Yeah.
27:57Now that, mate.
27:59Get nicked like now, mate.
28:00Get nicked.
28:02I'm absolutely fuming.
28:03Don't worry.
28:09I ain't crashed.
28:10Automatic braking on these is horrible.
28:13You're blaming your tools?
28:14It's the first time I've ever been invested in Groomsby, I think.
28:27I have to try that.
28:31I'm going to have to leave it, I think.
28:34I'm going to have to let it go.
28:36She's going to have to wait, I think.
28:39I know she can go out of it this morning.
28:44She's a character.
29:03I think sometimes it's nervousness that gets the better of them and they don't quite know what to say,
29:07so it just becomes verbal diarrhea and they just continually talk and talk and talk.
29:12I think we're all guilty of it at times, aren't we?
29:14We're just waffling on, but to be fair, I'll have them like that, chatting away,
29:17then fighting and all the other sorts of attitudes that we can get from people.
29:21These mats absolutely stink.
29:38Screw them.
29:38So today's car cleaning day.
29:45We all get together in the morning when we can, go through the fleet, give them all a good clean,
29:50make it look nice, make it smell nice and not too minging.
29:54PC Wade Cruz is tough on grime and the causes of grime.
30:00She says new car, must be a new car smell.
30:02Yeah, it's all been cleaned down, nicely validated.
30:07If I can keep it looking this way, I'm sure it'll change.
30:10So today we're going to be south of the River Humber.
30:29My preference to work in it is to come the south of the bridge.
30:33If you know where you are, that's half a battle.
30:35I was actually born in Middlesex, not what you 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,
30:50something like that.
30:51And then I've been between Grimsby and Scunford ever since.
30:54Yeah, it's not uncommon.
30:55The car in front, it seems to be absolutely full with parcels when it's gone past.
31:22I couldn't see into the passenger side window, it was out 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.
31:49It's going to stop, stop, back to the car.
31:52Hello.
31:55You knew I was going to stop you, didn't you?
31:57Sorry mate, this is very bad.
31:59Okay, so the reason why I'm going to stop you is because how can you see out of that window?
32:05Okay, I'll try.
32:08Are you delivering out of your parcels?
32:10Honestly, I've never seen a vehicle with so much stuff in it, such a small vehicle.
32:16That's not suitable, is it?
32:18You need a van.
32:19Yeah, next month.
32:21Next month?
32:21Yeah, I need a van.
32:22You need a van now, don't you?
32:24Morning.
32:25Yeah.
32:29Come take a seat at the back of the car and we'll do a couple of checks.
32:32Let's see.
32:33So that, that's dangerous.
32:41What if a cyclist comes towards you at a crossroad?
32:45You've got a little tiny hole.
32:48Okay.
32:48These three windows you need to see through, okay?
32:51Nice.
32:53Take my first TV.
32:58Also, your insurance...
33:05It's insured, but 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.
33:21So just driving to the shop's okay.
33:25I'm sorry.
33:26It's okay.
33:27It's different in my car.
33:33You've got a UK license?
33:35English license?
33:37Yeah, international.
33:38International license?
33:39I have a picture.
33:42What country is that from?
33:44Brazil.
33:44Brazil?
33:46Yeah.
33:46How long have you lived in the UK for?
33:48Three years.
33:49You'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, okay.
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 permit?
34:08Not valid, no.
34:09So you're driving that car now, without a license?
34:17So you need to take a test?
34:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:20I go.
34:21On the road?
34:21I did, I did.
34:22Oh, okay.
34:22Yes.
34:23The UK one.
34:25Oh my God.
34:26So, I'm going to have to seize your vehicle.
34:34You take it?
34:35Yes.
34:35Oh, okay.
34:36When 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 later, Al.
34:49There we go.
34:55Well, that was an interesting little stop, wasn't it?
35:10Hopefully, all those parcels won't get picked up today by a boss.
35:14If not, then there'll be a lot of people very, very angry asking for refunds, weren't
35:19they?
35:19I wonder where the parcel is.
35:21I couldn't believe how many parcels are actually in that vehicle.
35:24So, it was a proper treasure chest.
35:28I think Santa would even be impressive amount of parcels I managed to fit into that car, so...
35:31Just need to check your way back, let's look at your little boots.
35:35They're very shiny.
35:36Do a little twirl for me.
35:38Oh, sure.
35:39We're doing all right.
35:40We've got...
35:41We've got everything we need.
35:43It looks nice and tidy on the vest tonight.
35:44Proud to call you my student.
35:45Proud to call you my student tonight.
35:46Seven out of ten.
35:47I want to.
35:48I want to.
35:49I want to show you what.
35:50I want to show you what.
35:51Trainee motorway cop.
35:52I want to show you what.
35:53Trainee motorway cop.
35:54PC Kieran McLeod is teaming up with PC
36:15I want to. I want to show you what.
36:20Trainee motorway cop PC Kieran McLeod is teaming up with PC Emily Green,
36:26who has four years in the driving seat.
36:29I'd like you to do all the checks on the car, please, Kieran,
36:31before we go on for the night.
36:33So I'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?
36:43So I'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. For you?
36:52All good, master.
36:55I'm raring to go.
36:56Great job.
36:57Let's go.
37:08As parents to young children,
37:10Emily and Kieran put in the night shifts at home as well as work.
37:18You're having sleepless nights at the minute with little Lynn?
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 refreshed tonight, actually.
37:30Yeah, I'm glad you are.
37:32I need my sleep.
37:34What might save you to sleep?
37:35Well, you clearly need some of it, yes.
37:38He's traveling.
38:04What's the speed of this guy going, isn't he?
38:09100, I'm at.
38:16Tang Mike 31.
38:18I'm just M62 westbound, just approaching Junction 35.
38:22I've just got a vehicle traveling 100.
38:24He hasn't reacted to my presence at this time.
38:28I'm in a marked Volvo, a pursuit management train with a Stinger on board.
38:32There'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,
38:43I look to put a compliance stop in.
38:453-1, it's a stop, stop, hard shoulder.
39:00Hello.
39:01Just take the vehicle off from his place.
39:05That stinks like weed.
39:05Jump out for me.
39:06Join us bird-watching on Britain's roads,
39:18where 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, you see how fast I am.
39:38And driving that is totally cuckoo.
39:42Whoa!
39:45So keep your eyes peeled,
39:47you might just spot a driver winging it.
39:50Car stinks like weed.
39:58Jump out for me.
40:00It's close to midnight on the M62.
40:04Emily and Kieran have stopped a driver doing over 100,
40:07and they suspect it's not just his speed that's high.
40:12Come and grab a seat.
40:153-1, yes, yes.
40:16We've got driver detained.
40:17When did you last set up to use cannabis?
40:21Earlier, mate.
40:22Earlier?
40:22Earlier, yeah.
40:30Because I can smell cannabis,
40:31and you've admitted to taking cannabis,
40:32I'm going to swipe you for it, OK?
40:34Hey, stick your tongue out for me.
40:39So it takes eight minutes.
40:43What brings you to Humberside?
40:45I've just been told fair.
40:47Spend a lot of money?
40:49Yeah, a little bit.
40:52So the reason why we initially stopped you
40:53is 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,
41:07it might have, sorry,
41:08it might have been about 85.
41:10We clucked you at one point at 100.
41:13Just over 100.
41:14Really?
41:15Yeah.
41:15It's because there's a strong smell of cannabis,
41:22and they've admitted to smoking cannabis.
41:24We're just doing a Section 23 misuse of drug tax search.
41:27I'll explain the test for you.
41:32There's a line come up on the other side,
41:33which is a test line,
41:34so it's tested positive for cannabis.
41:37I'm arresting you on suspicion of Section 5A,
41:39the road traffic act.
41:40Basically, that's driving a motor vehicle.
41:42We have a specified limit to a drug in your system,
41:45i.e. cannabis.
41:47Do you understand that?
41:48I understand.
41:48Is there any cannabis in the car?
41:53Er, no, man, there isn't.
41:54Have you found cannabis?
42:06No.
42:07Rex has found a small amount of cannabis in the vehicle.
42:11Who's in?
42:12The driver's side.
42:16We've found some small bit of cannabis in your car.
42:20All right, you're favouring the rest of the possession of a controlled substance,
42:24believed to be cannabis.
42:25Sorry, man, I didn't even know it was...
42:27Have you ever been caught with cannabis before?
42:28I have, mate, yes.
42:30Once, er...
42:31They gave me a...
42:32It 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,
42:41but 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?
42:46Yeah, definitely.
42:53Right, we'll get him back to Clough.
42:57It's a proper lesson learned, like, I can't believe it.
43:02I'll just go into a whole fair and then...
43:04I never would imagine my night had been like this.
43:07Maybe start off by not driving like an idiot.
43:11Okay?
43:11Understood, yeah.
43:12Yeah.
43:27Good result?
43:39Good result, I haven't really, haven'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?
43:51No, from being in the sunny South Bank,
43:53I haven't really put myself through that yet.
43:56It makes Hull famous, though.
43:57It does Hull Fair.
43:59I've just got the time as a kid,
44:00but 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 Dodge,
44:13and it was blessed.
44:14If you have any dashcam clips
