00:00Police have some data! Stop!
00:02The driver's making off.
00:04Derbyshire traffic cops.
00:06Pull over in here now!
00:08Might be game on for something here.
00:10It's just gone. Go, go, go, go!
00:12Patrol some of the country's most dangerous roads.
00:15Speed is 4-0. The vehicle's all over the road.
00:19Driving head-on.
00:20He's up the kerb.
00:21Into danger.
00:22I just have warning markers for firearms.
00:25Vehicle's done!
00:27Get out of the car!
00:28Wow! Gun!
00:29Designed to look like a mobile phone.
00:31Don't pull away, fella.
00:33With rising crime rates.
00:35Here you go, here you go.
00:37Officers are under pressure.
00:38Stop! Get out of here!
00:40Don't do this!
00:41Come out of here now!
00:42You're up to arrest.
00:45Please!
00:46With lives on the line.
00:48We're gonna need at least three or four ambulances.
00:51Is it fuel?
00:52Right, move away from this car now!
00:54The stakes are high.
00:56It isn't looking good at the minute.
00:58But the traffic cops.
00:59You've blown 128.
01:00Eleven minutes past two in the afternoon.
01:02You're under arrest.
01:03Conspicion of theft of motor vehicles.
01:04Come on!
01:06Do not run!
01:07Smack the officer!
01:09Another problem!
01:10Alright.
01:11I've got a vehicle failing to stop.
01:17Coming up.
01:18Crash, crash.
01:19It's going to the back of the silver car.
01:22Traffic cops cracking down.
01:24Vehicle continues.
01:25Nine-zero in a three-zero.
01:28On young and reckless drivers.
01:30I'm gonna have to use tactical contact.
01:32Who put lives at risk.
01:35Get down!
01:36I'm getting up.
01:37Paddy, don't jump out.
01:38I'm so pleased!
01:39And go on the run.
01:40Turn your engine off.
01:41People like yourself put other people at risk.
01:43Boy, you're chasing the other birds.
01:44Rubbish.
01:45As most of the fatal crashes in the UK are on rural roads.
02:04What vehicle is it?
02:06Let me know where it belongs.
02:08Traffic cops like Paddy Shambrook patrol the Derbyshire countryside,
02:13looking out for reckless drivers.
02:16It's early on a Saturday morning.
02:18Today we're looking for just bad driving.
02:21Lots and lots of tourists generally on the weekend.
02:23Out here, it's the Dales and it's the Peter Street.
02:26Hiya, it's Derbyshire Police.
02:28Where are you at the moment?
02:30We've got multiple reports coming in.
02:32I don't know if we can divert any units at all.
02:35Several calls are coming in about a white BMW driving dangerously.
02:41Keep going.
02:42Nice video.
02:43A couple in their camper van record the suspect car swerving all over the road.
02:53Units for observations, we've got reports of some dangerous driving.
02:56Swerving back and forth all over the lane.
02:58Inform the status of the possible DIC.
03:00Any sightings, stop check, call control.
03:02And he's talking about it.
03:03With a suspected drunk driver on the move.
03:08Yeah, 2-4.
03:09Just keep an eye out.
03:11Paddy races to the area.
03:13When you've got several different people ringing the police because of such poor driving.
03:20Obviously, they need stopping.
03:22Yeah, we've got contact, contact with that vehicle.
03:28He spots the suspect.
03:29He's coming past us now.
03:31Heading towards him.
03:33His face just looks completely glazed over as if he doesn't really know what's going on.
03:39Yeah, the driver looks intoxicated.
03:41But he's obviously with it enough to accelerate and try and get away from me.
03:48So, I'm thinking, you know, he must be under the influence of substances.
03:52Now, failing to stop.
03:54It's going wrong side of solid wire line system.
03:57DRA is high.
03:59I've got permission for pursuit, please.
04:02I'm advanced.
04:03High performance, marked car.
04:05Advanced driver.
04:06T-pack trains.
04:07Have we got any M-pass or dogs?
04:10Have we got any stinger that we can set up in front of me at Chesterfield?
04:14DRA is high.
04:15I'm only going to get busier now.
04:17From an AC error too, I am monitoring this incident.
04:21Based on everything you've told me so far, pursuit is authorised.
04:24You've got people just going about their leisurely weekend business
04:28and he's just careering towards that at, you know, 75, 80 miles an hour.
04:33Did a smoke coming off the back tyres.
04:36It appeared that the vehicle is only on three wheels.
04:39With a missing wheel, it seems the suspect has already had a collision
04:44and is fighting to keep control.
04:46It's frightening this willingness to drive like that and risk completely innocent lives
04:53for the sake of trying to get away from the police.
04:56He is going to kill someone.
04:58Paddy is on his own.
05:00So other units, including PC Paul Barker, raced to back him up.
05:05And he continues, wrong side, into oncoming traffic.
05:15Crash, crash.
05:16He's going to the back of the car.
05:18I'm on my own.
05:19I'm going to have to stop this vehicle.
05:21I'm going to have to use tactical contact.
05:23I've got to hit this person driving a block of metal at 80 miles an hour.
05:30There's absolutely no way this can continue.
05:32As Paddy rams the suspect off the road.
05:39Crash, crash, crash.
05:41Another motorist helps box him in from behind.
05:44Vehicle stopped.
05:46Paddy is trapped and escapes through the passenger door.
05:50Number five, bravo, Charlie, state six.
05:53As backup arrives, a member of the public tackles the driver to the ground before he's detained
06:00by officers.
06:01Can you prove that right now?
06:03Top of a little...
06:04Not his head, but...
06:05Excuse me.
06:06Excuse me.
06:07Are you all right?
06:08We've got people to you in a minute.
06:09Is anyone...
06:10Is anyone hurt?
06:11Paul arrives on scene as officers secure the suspect in the back of a police van.
06:22Right.
06:23You've been trapped down, bro.
06:24Right.
06:25You've been trapped down, bro.
06:26All right, stay on top.
06:27Have you been trapped down?
06:28So, please.
06:29Oh, my God.
06:30Paddy, don't jump out.
06:31So, please.
06:32There we go.
06:37Suspected of being under the influence,
06:40officers need to get the driver to custody quickly for a drink and drug test.
06:45You're under arrest on what's called section four.
06:47Suspicion of driving whilst unfit through drink or drug.
06:52All right.
06:53Fairly to stop.
06:54Dangerous driving.
06:55And section four.
06:57He was so close to killing several people.
07:01And yet, despite that, he's still shouting abuse, being violent.
07:06You just can't believe that someone would have such disregard for everybody else.
07:13I told you now.
07:14You're not going to get me out of here.
07:16What's what you must do?
07:18Oh.
07:19F***.
07:20F***.
07:21F***.
07:22F***.
07:23F***.
07:24F***.
07:25F***.
07:26F***.
07:27F***.
07:28F***.
07:29F***.
07:30F***.
07:31F***.
07:32It's absolutely horrendous.
07:33He just takes a massive dislike to me.
07:35He's just upset that, you know, his party's finally been stopped.
07:38You're going to have to wait.
07:39If you go back his headlight, we're going to have to go in there, will you?
07:41We're going to need to go in.
07:43But before officers step in...
07:45All you're going to do is take me back to the church for the police station.
07:49..he calms down.
07:52You're going to stick with your statement, then you're going to discharge me, and that is it.
07:57Well, there's nothing to worry about, then, is there?
07:59So, may as well just be chill.
08:01It's like that.
08:02You're missing that.
08:03You're missing that.
08:04Prove it.
08:05Actually, prove it, though.
08:07If you can prove that, then I don't know.
08:12The man is now ready to be taken to custody.
08:15Do you know where you're going from here, though, yeah?
08:17Yeah, yeah.
08:18Paul assesses the scene.
08:21Paddy, what have you done?
08:23I found it at work.
08:24I say he's second informant.
08:26All right, just joined another team.
08:28Oh, yeah, because this guy's about to kill someone.
08:30Literally about to kill someone.
08:31Yeah.
08:33Colleague Dave Shaw checks on the driver of the red car
08:36who helped box the suspect in and tackled him to the ground.
08:41I was on the way to the car boot.
08:43I was sat at the traffic lights, minding my own business,
08:47and someone just smashed right into the back of me.
08:50He went round, then he started driving like a madman.
08:53So I thought, I'd better follow him.
08:55He smashed into the lamppost.
08:57Police car boxed him in on the left.
08:59I thought, I'd better get in behind him
09:01so he doesn't reverse.
09:03The policeman couldn't get out of the car
09:05because his door was blocked.
09:07I just thought, we can't let this guy get away.
09:09He got out, ran off.
09:11I ran after him, grabbed him, we went to the floor
09:15and I just kept hold of him until the policeman came.
09:19You all right, sir?
09:20Yeah, not bad yet.
09:21All right.
09:22Paddy checks on the drive with the silver car
09:24that was smashed into back up the road.
09:27It just hit me from behind.
09:30And I just noticed he was on three wheels.
09:32I should have gone all the way down.
09:34I was thinking about pedestrians that were coming and stuff.
09:36Just thinking, this is going to get busier and busier here, isn't it?
09:39A coat to shop in.
09:44A search of the car uncovers some suspicious items.
09:49Got an open bottle of bud.
09:52An open can of strong lager.
09:56And there's medication on the floor
09:58and his driving licence is there as well.
10:01We've passed the details.
10:05Potential breach of our own.
10:07That's what I'm thinking of.
10:08To this, ma'am.
10:10The man was released from jail ten days ago
10:13and is not allowed contact with his ex-partner.
10:16Officers think this could be the reason for his reckless behaviour.
10:20An A Charlie Five Lima?
10:23Can we just pay and see this person
10:25and make sure he hasn't got any conditions not to be with that lady?
10:28Has he got any active restraining orders?
10:37It's her car but he's insured.
10:39Yeah.
10:40She's a domestic violence victim.
10:43They're going to check in on her now, mate.
10:44Where's that? Where's that live?
10:45Yeah, Chesterfield's for the second one.
10:47Somebody round now.
10:48Second one, I'll check on her.
10:50Tango 0-1 receiving 1-2.
10:52Start recovery for our vehicle, please.
10:54It appears the man is driving his ex-partner's car.
10:59I don't know him.
11:01When he sobers up from whatever he's on,
11:03whether he'll just realise ever what he's done
11:06when he sees the footage
11:08and how close he's come to killing lots of people,
11:10just shocking.
11:11It's completely shameful.
11:13He just belongs in prison.
11:14He's got absolutely no care whatsoever for life of the people.
11:18I'm just very pleased that he's on his way to custody.
11:23I'm glad it's finished.
11:24Yeah, we've come a ride down to the local shop
11:26to get an ice finger from the local bakery this morning.
11:29If it was on that pavement at that moment in time,
11:31it could have ended really badly.
11:34So, what's your name?
11:35Paddy, you all right?
11:36You've been lucky today.
11:37Yeah, well, we have been lucky.
11:39Thank you for your help.
11:40Can I get a job?
11:41Absolutely, I'll be speaking to my inspector in a bit.
11:44That's all right.
11:48Come on, we'll get you straight in, mate.
11:51All right.
11:52So, there's going to be no issues, are there?
11:54No, no, no, no.
11:55All right, mate. Cool. Come on.
11:56At custody, the suspect is checked in for drink and drug tests.
12:01Plug yourself down on the bench.
12:02We'll give you a seat for a minute, all right?
12:04Yeah, you can take it to the sergeant.
12:05But we'll do it in a minute, yeah?
12:07Yeah, yeah, you can come on.
12:08Yeah.
12:09Unsurprisingly, he's tested positive for drink and drugs,
12:12which is why he's had multiple collisions on his journey.
12:15It's unbelievably selfish,
12:18and he's got no right to be out in public.
12:22I can't believe he was dead.
12:24He's knocked down a school sign.
12:27I completely wiped it out.
12:28I wiped it out.
12:29That's how fast he was.
12:30I can't believe it.
12:32Go on, keep going.
12:36Keep your lock on.
12:37Put the lock on.
12:39That's it.
12:40Hopefully the police car's not too bad.
12:44There's obviously only a certain amount of cars we've got,
12:47which is not what I was expecting today,
12:49but you never know what to expect in this job.
12:54He's been arrested for breach of his restraining order,
12:58dangerous driving, failure to stop, assaulting an emergency worker,
13:03suspicion of driving whilst over the prescribed limit for drink and for drugs.
13:10It's not unusual to have jobs like this nowadays,
13:15with people being so high on drugs and stuff like that
13:18that they'll run into others and they'll just carry on driving with one wheel off
13:23and things like that.
13:24It's getting more and more common.
13:26People don't realise how dangerous cars are.
13:30They're quite a big weapon, at the end of the day.
13:33They do kill, even when you don't mean to.
13:37The suspect will now be charged.
13:39If found guilty, he'll lose his licence for at least a year
13:43and faces more jail time.
13:51Coming up...
13:52The vehicle is through a red ATS.
13:55Officers forced to pursue...
13:57The vehicle contravenes a deep left bollard.
14:00They are a temporary high.
14:02..a young driver...
14:03Vehicle stung, vehicle stung.
14:07..refusing to stop...
14:09Vehicle stung again, vehicle stung again.
14:11..and putting lives at risk.
14:13Hands behind your back, hands behind your back!
14:22Units for observations for a vehicle...
14:32..probably is used in the road like a racetrack.
14:34Any sightings to check on control?
14:36The next time you're back.
14:37The next time you're back.
14:38The next time you're back.
14:39The next time you're back.
14:40The next time you're back.
14:41I'm going to go to the area and see if I can intercept this vehicle.
14:44In the centre of Derby, traffic cop Martin Carter is on the lookout for young reckless drivers.
14:51Just had a call come in to say there's a group of boy racers down at one of the local parks.
14:58So we're just going to float towards the area and see if we can find anything untoward.
15:03Each year, more than 1,500 people are killed on UK roads.
15:08Many due to dangerous driving.
15:11Oh, what's this?
15:13Two people racing in the distance.
15:16I can see two cars quite clearly going a bit over the speed limit and appear to be racing each other.
15:21He's going to make off.
15:23One of the vehicles, a Polo.
15:25Foot's gone down immediately and he'd off like a rocket.
15:29Try and catch up with him.
15:32As one of the cars speeds off,
15:36the Polo attempts to lose Martin.
15:41And a Oscar Tango for 1012.
15:46I've got a vehicle failing to stop.
15:49Confirm, failing to stop.
15:51It's a dark Volkswagen Polo in grey.
15:57Advanced driver, high performance, fully marked vehicle, T-packed trains.
16:01Driver is unknown.
16:04Number of occupants, unknown.
16:06Road conditions are dry.
16:08Weather is clear.
16:11Traffic is light.
16:12No pedestrians.
16:13I am declaring this a pursuit and requesting authority to continue.
16:18Form an A, pursuit is authorised.
16:21Keeping up to date with dynamic risk assessment, please.
16:24Oscar Tango, Sierra One, if you've got any units south,
16:26can they consider diverting units at all?
16:29As Martin pursues the car, other units race to assist.
16:33Vehicle contravenes a keep left bollard DRA temporary high.
16:40Back to the correct side of the road without incident.
16:43DRA drops to medium.
16:45Vehicle continues 9-0 in a 3-0.
16:49Vehicle is through a red ATS without incident.
16:53We're in Derby city centre.
16:56It's busy.
16:57There's lots of traffic.
16:58There's pedestrians walking around.
17:00This chap's reaching speeds of up to 100 miles an hour in a 40 zone.
17:05This is a properly high-risk pursuit.
17:08Subject vehicle is overtaking other vehicles now.
17:20Vehicle is swerving between vehicles.
17:22DRA increases to medium.
17:25Approaching a red ATS.
17:27DRA temporary high.
17:28Standby.
17:29Three of the red ATS without incident.
17:32DRA drops to below.
17:34Good as knows what all the members of the public must be thinking.
17:37They must be really concerned that there's people like this
17:41that think they can use the road as a race track.
17:44Speed currently 8-5 in a 4-0.
17:47DRA is medium.
17:49So the plan is to get as many resources flooded to the area as possible
17:54and hopefully we can sting the vehicle's tyres,
17:57which will deflate them and slow him down significantly
18:01and then we can deploy some other tactics to wrap our cars around his vehicle
18:06and bring it to a safe stop.
18:08From an eight to all units, we've run this past top desk.
18:11Stinger at this time is authorised.
18:13Just up ahead, an officer is ready with a stinger.
18:23Vehicle stung. Vehicle stung.
18:26Vehicle wrong side of the road.
18:28DRA temporary high.
18:33Thankfully for me, there's another local police unit
18:36further up the road with another stinger.
18:41Vehicle stung again. Vehicle stung again.
18:45Vehicle heavy on the brakes. Standby. Standby.
18:48The driver's made the decision, I'm not going to get away,
18:51so I've got to pull over.
18:53Wise choice to make.
18:55Vehicle stopped. Standby.
18:58Get out!
18:59I'm getting knocked. I'm getting knocked.
19:01Hands behind your back.
19:02Hands behind your back!
19:04Look, don't my family work all in it.
19:13You're under arrest.
19:14Suspicious of dangerous driving.
19:15Failing to stop for police.
19:16Yeah.
19:17OK?
19:18Yeah.
19:19Vehicle stopped driving under arrest.
19:22I've been involved in a number of pursuits
19:24and this is one of the worst that I've been involved in.
19:26A huge sigh of relief, but also satisfaction
19:29that we've been able to deploy our tactics
19:31in the correct manner
19:32and bring this pursuit to a safe conclusion.
19:36What was the reason for that, then?
19:37You know what it was?
19:38Because I was at that car on me
19:39and I thought you were going to call me over.
19:41So whose car is this?
19:42It's mine, it's mine.
19:43Registered insurance here.
19:44Yeah, yeah, yeah.
19:45Guess what, mate?
19:46From a ticket, you've posted a pigeon sentence.
19:47I know, man, I know.
19:49You know what it was?
19:50I was just nervous, man,
19:51because I was at that car on me.
19:52That's probably why you were there, weren't you?
19:53I'm an idiot, man, I know.
19:56You got any ID on you?
19:58Yes, I do, mate.
19:59It's in the back of my phone.
20:00Where's your phone?
20:01My phone's in there.
20:02I think we all make bad decisions in our life,
20:04but that decision was one of the worst decisions
20:07he could possibly have made.
20:08Come and sit in the back of my car.
20:10I've got him.
20:11Insurance held, MOT's in order, there's no reports on the vehicle.
20:16The vehicle belongs to him.
20:18He's got a full, clean driving licence,
20:20never been in trouble with the police before,
20:22fully insured to drive the car,
20:24no issues with the vehicle at all.
20:26So why you take that risk and drive in the manner that he did,
20:30you know, it baffles me.
20:34And now he's potentially looking at a prison sentence.
20:37Right, this is sealed, it's not been used before.
20:40How are you?
20:42Yes, mate.
20:43Oh, you're a prison pal.
20:45OK, eh?
20:46Yeah, I'll be good, ain't you?
20:48Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:50Nice one pal.
20:51Big deep breath.
20:52Keep going, keep going, hold it, hold it, hold it.
20:55That's it.
20:56Last time I dropped one, last night, I went out last night.
21:00OK.
21:01That was it, we were in.
21:02So blown zero, so no alcohol in your system, which is a good start.
21:04Right, same rules for the drug wipe.
21:06Yeah.
21:07So, er, this is a sealed packet, it's not been used before.
21:11Yeah.
21:12And it tests with cannabis in cocaine.
21:13So when you're ready, stick your tongue out,
21:15and I'm going to swipe your tongue nine times, OK?
21:18One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
21:26So worst outcome right now, what's going to happen,
21:30if you've been straight up with me?
21:32Er, so far, you've been arrested for dangerous driving
21:35and failing to stop for the police.
21:37Yeah.
21:38What's the drug sample saying?
21:39There's a clear indication that there's cannabis in your system.
21:42OK.
21:43So you're further under arrest on suspicion of driving a motor vehicle
21:45on a road whilst over a specified drug limit, or namely cannabis.
21:48Would that not mean because I've had some before?
21:50Yeah, potentially.
21:51OK.
21:52So just to remind you, you're under caution.
21:54You do not have to say anything, but it may help your defence.
21:56If you do not, mention when you question something,
21:58you later aren't in court, anything you do say
22:00may be given evidence.
22:01Do you understand that?
22:02Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:03Perfect.
22:04Was it this one that was chasing me?
22:05Yeah.
22:09Is it mapped up or anything?
22:11It's police spec, yeah.
22:12So what does that mean?
22:13Do you know what it's pushing?
22:14It's fast.
22:15Giving me a hard time, I'll tell you that much.
22:17You know what?
22:18He's a good driver, man.
22:19I was saying it in the car.
22:21I was saying it in the car, this guy's a driver, man.
22:23Despite the fact it might seem like a compliment,
22:26I'd rather not be involved in that type of incident.
22:29He could have killed somebody,
22:30could have seriously injured somebody,
22:32or he could have killed himself.
22:33And for him, it's just,
22:35I've been involved in a police chase
22:37like he's playing a computer game.
22:39Right, let's get you off to custody.
22:42Mind boggling.
22:44That's the sort of person we need to target
22:46as a high-risk road user.
22:56Coming up...
22:57We've got two vehicles failing to stop.
22:59...a group of teens...
23:01Right, driver, turn your engine off.
23:03...causing chaos on the roads.
23:06So, when a police car comes,
23:08wait to be right.
23:09So, what's that mean?
23:10There was a car...
23:11What does that mean?
23:12Yes, sir.
23:13So, why didn't you?
23:14And officers searching for the truth.
23:17You don't have the right to search me, though.
23:19Thanks for trying to tell us the law, mate.
23:20We're police officers, mate.
23:21Been doing it a long time.
23:22In the east of the county...
23:37Tango 1-0.
23:39Anyone on here?
23:41Yeah, I'm on here now.
23:43Traffic cop Rich Morris is racing to assist a colleague
23:47tailing two vehicles driving dangerously.
23:50We've got two vehicles failing to stop.
23:55Some lads are ragging around Morrison's car park.
23:59Advanced marks.
24:01Assume management.
24:02Fiesta making off as well.
24:05We've got to fail to stop with not one vehicle,
24:08but these two vehicles involved.
24:10The vehicles making off are a Ford Fiesta and a BMW.
24:15So, we're making our way over there.
24:22What's the rest of this BMW, mate?
24:25I'm a couple of minutes away.
24:26We're coming to you.
24:28With the risk of a crash high...
24:30Four, four.
24:32...having identified the vehicles, the officer pulls back.
24:37He's got both registrations, so we're looking out all the time
24:41for these two vehicles.
24:43We're going to head towards where they go, aren't we?
24:46The team race to the vehicle's registered addresses.
24:49One-seven, can you just turn off your ear blues, mate?
24:55And their instincts pay off.
24:57Tango, one-zero, one-seven, where's day six?
25:03Right, driver.
25:04Turn your engine off.
25:06Jump out the car.
25:08Who's the driver for the BMW?
25:12Who's the driver for the BMW?
25:14I'm not sure, mate.
25:16Stand there.
25:18I can see both vehicles parked up,
25:20and everybody's in the Fiesta and around the Fiesta,
25:24and I'm just thinking, well, that's a bit weird.
25:27Officers quiz the lad in the Fiesta's driver's seat.
25:30Why have you failed to stop for the police tonight, then?
25:32Didn't know you were chasing.
25:33Is that what we're playing, is it?
25:34Good job with someone on camera, isn't it?
25:36That needs to be sarcastic, mate.
25:37No need to make off and drive dangerous, is there?
25:39No need to be sarcastic.
25:40OK?
25:41So when a police car comes with its blue lights on, what's that mean?
25:43There was a car behind me.
25:44What does that mean?
25:45To stop.
25:46So why didn't you?
25:47Because I thought you were chasing the other person.
25:49You went off before him, and you've been in convoy with that...
25:52Don't coin your finger in it.
25:55You can't put...
25:56You can't fail to stop, can you?
25:58Don't step towards him.
25:59Don't step towards him.
26:00Don't step towards him.
26:01OK?
26:02Guess what?
26:03So you've been in convoy with that BMW all night, haven't you?
26:05I know you have, OK?
26:07Driver's license, please.
26:08We're both having them both, aren't we?
26:10Yeah, they're both probably coming in, mate.
26:11Cars will be getting seized, yeah.
26:13NA Tango 1-0?
26:15I think we're going to have both these vehicles failing to stop.
26:18Because it's been involved in a fail to stop.
26:20That activates a 24-hour policy where we can seize those vehicles.
26:26Where's the driver of the BMW?
26:28I'm not sure who's driving it.
26:30OK.
26:31I'm going to give you all a verbal notice of intended prosecution, right?
26:36It's your responsibility now to tell me who the driver of that BMW is.
26:39If you don't, you're all going to get prosecuted for failing to ID the driver.
26:43Well, we have no idea who's driving it.
26:45Is it registered keeper of this vehicle?
26:47Are you all going to be arrested?
26:48This one?
26:49No, that BMW.
26:50No, I have no idea who's going to be arrested.
26:52What's your name?
26:54What's your name?
26:55I just wanted to know who you are.
26:57You know who was driving it.
26:59So you need to tell us who was driving it.
27:01I want ID off all of you, please.
27:03Why are you shaking, sir?
27:05Don't be scared, mate.
27:06Don't be scared of it.
27:07I ain't scared.
27:08Don't be scared of it.
27:09I ain't scared.
27:10You look scared.
27:11I don't know who you are.
27:12You look it.
27:13Don't be scared, mate.
27:14I ain't scared, Paul.
27:15Good.
27:16Good.
27:17Right, in a second, we're going to search your Section 1 of Pace for the keys for that BMW.
27:22So if you've got the keys on you now, whoever's got the keys, I suggest you own up to it now.
27:27The chances are the person with the keys on them was the person that was driving, isn't it?
27:31My guess it's you in the back there, dude.
27:34I guess what?
27:35I've done nothing wrong.
27:36Are you ever known to police still?
27:38I'm not going to go with you.
27:39How old are you?
27:40I am 17.
27:4117.
27:42So if we search you, then, are you going to have that BMW key on you, pal?
27:45You don't have the right to search me, though.
27:47Yeah, we do.
27:48Sexual order Pace.
27:49Thanks for trying to tell us the law, mate.
27:50Are you a police officer or a solicitor where police officers may have been doing it a long time?
27:54I don't know whose car that is, though, unfortunately.
27:56So you've got no idea who it is?
27:58Right.
27:59I have no idea.
28:00OK.
28:01We've got work in the morning.
28:02Hello, Sarge.
28:03Well, we've all got jobs to do, haven't we?
28:05Step out, buddy.
28:06So we've got here, we've found both the cars that are made off, parked up.
28:11I'm sitting in the back of my car, mate.
28:13Four lads in the Fiesta.
28:16Nobody in the BMW.
28:18So we're just getting them all split up and establishing who was the driver of the two vehicles.
28:24The object in the search is for a set of keys.
28:26Only for a BMW.
28:27OK.
28:28OK?
28:29OK.
28:30Can you use some CPU, with you, eh?
28:31Cool.
28:32Just spread your arms out.
28:33Have you got anything you shouldn't have at the minute?
28:35Nothing at all.
28:36What's got in the pocket, son, bro?
28:37Nothing.
28:38Just my phone.
28:39You can put everything up from the top of here, look.
28:40You just keep your hands away from the prize room.
28:42Don't fiddle with that pocket, mate.
28:43Where you got in that one?
28:44That's a forward key.
28:45Seems to be fiddly with it.
28:46That's a forward key.
28:48That's a forward key, yeah.
28:53Sharp on your target.
28:56After the searches.
28:57Right.
28:58Come and sit in my car.
28:59Just jump in there.
29:02The young men are questioned separately.
29:05Have they all been searched, Neil?
29:07Yeah.
29:08Have we found the car key?
29:09No.
29:10Right.
29:11So what's the crack then tonight?
29:12What's been going on?
29:13Nothing.
29:14I've just been in my mate's car before.
29:17Was you in it when it drove off?
29:19No.
29:21Where was you?
29:24I don't know.
29:25In where?
29:28I was in the Ford.
29:31Where's the driver, that BMW?
29:34I don't know.
29:36That Fiesta, that BMW, have been in convoy all night tonight.
29:41When my colleagues have tried to stop, you lot being idiots at Morrisons,
29:46you have both driven off and failed to stop for police tonight.
29:50Are you with me so far?
29:52Yeah.
29:53And guess what?
29:54Both those vehicles have been found here tonight.
29:58With all of you in one vehicle, both of you parked up together.
30:02Are you with me so far?
30:04So the chances are, the person that was driving that BMW is sat in that Fiesta.
30:10That's why you're all parked up here, doing whatever you young lads do together.
30:14What you do there is your business.
30:17But it's not very realistic that you lot have been travelling around all night together,
30:23and that you're not going to know who the driver of that BMW is.
30:27Why have I done that's illegal?
30:29Because you're not saying who the driver of that is?
30:31I don't know who the driver of that is.
30:32No?
30:33Well, I suspect that you may have.
30:34Yeah, I can.
30:35Watch me.
30:36Watch me.
30:37I'm sorry.
30:38You're having a laugh, pal.
30:39You don't care.
30:40You will do when you're not able to drive.
30:42You're never able to get insurance.
30:44Because insurance are lucky.
30:45You say, no, high-risk road user, pal.
30:47You're not driving.
30:49The Fiesta is also searched.
30:52But there's no sign of the BMW's keys.
30:57As for the BMW, who's it registered and insured to, please?
31:09The BMW is actually registered to one of the lads,
31:13mothers.
31:14So, you're 17, aren't you?
31:15Yeah.
31:16Which means we will have to inform your parent that you have been stop searched.
31:19Yeah.
31:20Right?
31:21So, mum or dad?
31:22No matter.
31:23Mum.
31:24Hello, sorry to bother you so late.
31:25I'm with, I believe, your son, your 17-year-old.
31:28Is he about six foot tall, slim build,
31:31but tends to wear a white hoodie?
31:35Right.
31:36That clears a lot of things up.
31:37He's 19, so he's actually an adult.
31:39Your son is safe and well,
31:41but I think he'll be coming with us for a little while.
31:43He's giving me some false details.
31:44Take care.
31:46He's pretended to be his younger brother rather than actually him.
31:50So, er, I'm thinking he's clearly got something to hide.
31:54Why would you be lying if you'd done nothing wrong?
31:56Right.
31:57You are now under arrest.
31:58Failed to stop.
31:59Dangerous drive.
32:00And obstruct police.
32:01Because you gave me false details.
32:02Establish who you are.
32:03Right?
32:04All right.
32:05So, I'm going to ask you now, before we seize your car,
32:07because we're going to seize it anyway,
32:08before we drag it on a ramp.
32:09Yeah.
32:10All right?
32:11And knacker it up.
32:12Have you got the keys to it?
32:13Right.
32:14I've asked you the question.
32:15It's knackered now.
32:16I've asked you that question, mate.
32:17Yeah.
32:18I don't have the keys for that car.
32:19I was in my mate's car the entire time.
32:21Right.
32:22I have not drove that car at all.
32:24Right.
32:25But do you know who owns the Beamer?
32:26Who owns the Beamer?
32:27Yeah.
32:28The vehicle belongs to me, but I've not drove that.
32:31Where are the keys for it?
32:32I don't know.
32:33I don't know.
32:34I haven't drove that car.
32:35So, somebody who you don't know,
32:36has got keys to your vehicle.
32:37I don't know my car.
32:38What's been stolen?
32:39I have not drove.
32:40That is my car.
32:41You can't be stolen.
32:42I was in the back of my mate's car.
32:43Why do you think we're here?
32:44Because we've seen that there.
32:45Right.
32:46The lad in the white hoodie,
32:47Pinocchio's should be growing as big as Pinocchio's
32:49because it comes up with a story
32:52that somebody else had been driving it,
32:54he doesn't know who,
32:55and they've just found it there.
32:57And thinking that we're going to buy that story
32:59is unbelievable.
33:00Have you ever been arrested before?
33:02No, I haven't.
33:03Right.
33:04Let's get down to custody.
33:05It's about getting you interviewed in the morning.
33:06OK?
33:07I've got work in the morning.
33:08Well, I'm afraid that's going to go on the back burner, mate,
33:10because you're going to be at St Mary's off custody.
33:12I've seen more death on the road
33:14than you could ever imagine me.
33:16It's just another statistic waiting to happen.
33:18That's all you are.
33:19I've got kids older than you, pal.
33:21Though I just hope you'll learn something from tonight.
33:25The two passengers are released without charge.
33:29We've ended up identifying who we suspect the driver of the BMW is.
33:33So, he's in the traps.
33:35The other driver has been given a traffic expense report
33:38and sent on his way.
33:40We've recovered both the vehicles,
33:42Honda Section 165.
33:44It's going to cost them both quite a few quid
33:46to get their vehicles back.
33:48Points and fines incoming.
33:50The frustrating thing about this is they're all young 18, 19-year-old kids
33:56and statistically, a lot of young lads end up getting seriously injured
34:01or dying in serious road traffic collisions
34:04because it's all about testosterone.
34:06They watch too much Need for Speed, too fast, too furious,
34:09whatever they call it nowadays.
34:11And they all think they can drive like that,
34:13and the fact is they can't.
34:14They run out of skill long before that.
34:17But we've tried, and that's all we can do.
34:21More than a third of dangerous driving offences
34:24involve young drivers aged between 17 and 25.
34:30These are high-risk road users.
34:33If they're willing to act like that at that age,
34:36then I don't think they've got a very long legal driving career
34:40ahead of them.
34:41And they want to hope that their insurance companies aren't watching
34:45because their premiums might be going up again
34:48because if I own an insurance company,
34:50I won't be wanting to insure idiots like that.
34:57Coming up...
34:58I've seen two white vehicles go flying past.
35:01..more dangerous behaviour...
35:03Bit of a rush, lad.
35:05..as another young driver...
35:07Not learning, are you?
35:09..is caught in the act.
35:11Are you idiots like you driving like that through a car park
35:14who's been told three times and still hasn't learned?
35:18Yeah?
35:19Just so you can show off in front of all your mates.
35:22And ask, can I get two, three, 10.15, please?
35:27Traffic cop Craig Dawes...
35:29..got opposite way now, so it doesn't matter.
35:32..is heading to a supermarket car park,
35:35traffic cop craig doors got opposite way now so don't matter is heading to a supermarket car park
35:47a known hotspot for boy races and dangerous driving what makes boy races so dangerous is
35:54they have no sense of fear and they don't see the risks they don't see the the consequences
36:00so tonight we're making his way up there because with experience we know that it's a nice night
36:05and they will probably meeting up there to show off the cars as I pull into the car park
36:15two white vehicles go flying past one of them lucky for him sees me where the other one clearly
36:24doesn't and continues to drive in an antisocial manner and speeds past the lorry towards the
36:29main road I'm annoyed straight away because these are the kind of people that's going to you know
36:36possibly crashing to my family or somebody else that's going about the daily business doing the
36:40shopping total disregard for anybody else's safety just intent on showing off and eight two three ten
36:47just keep me job for section 59 warning please section 59 is a power that the police have for
37:08anybody that's driving in an antisocial manner and causing annoyance or the road users you know what
37:22section 59 warning is oh how long not learning are you so people like you is the people we have to go
37:35scrape off the roads driving like an idiot through Tesco's car park you've already had 159 that's
37:40clearly not bothered you then you've had again and that's not bothered you you still go down to where
37:45these antisocial car meets are and you want to be Lewis Hamilton or Max Verstappen so yeah mate it does
37:51really pee me off that people like yourselves don't learn and put other people at risk even possibly my
37:57family yeah because all families go to Tesco's and so on don't they what happens if the family's coming
38:03out of Tesco's we're a kid and it runs out you go and clean them up and then it's death by dangerous
38:10and you idiots like you driving like that through a car park who's been told three times and still
38:14hasn't learned yeah just so you can show off in front of all your mates
38:20so this time we'll have a due care as well put some points on your license shall we
38:28come taxi to my car turn your engine off you'll need up money you can
38:34when i find out that it's just third strike you know that that then really does anger me because
38:39it's clearly not taking on board what's being said these people are 17 18 year old driving
38:46high-powered cars for a very very short time and in simple terms is there there are an accident
38:53waiting to happen i spent quite a lot of time down there at Tesco you used to happen to come
38:57past at the wrong time didn't you and i bet your heart sank when you saw me behind you didn't it
39:04or don't you care it happens every day does it why does it happen every day
39:09no no no because 10 other cars went past me and i never bothered with them did i because they were
39:18driving quite normally out of the car park but obviously you giving it the billy big you and your
39:23mate that's what gets me attention do you know what your attitude is absolutely shocking it concerns me
39:30with attitude but my other concern is that you know when you do crash which i should probably put money
39:37on is going to happen it'll be some innocent person or some innocent family that you take out
