Interesting Police crash investigator gets his man

This was the subject of a documentary a good back. From memory There was a deep suspicion that the two of them had been racing or involved in a road rage incident.
Either way another sad waste of a life.

The documentary showed cctv of the motorbike going considerably faster than the rest of the traffic in heavy rain. The conclusion was, from memory, that the Mini driver, for whatever reason, objected to that.
As an aside, I had a cb500 as a loaner when my Fazer 1000 was in for a service - it was an absolute hoot to ride in London traffic!
Yes, there is nothing wrong with them ( Perhaps under geared as I had to raise the gearing on mine by a good 10% to make it feel 'comfy'at 70 )
But overtaking someone does not constitute racing !
That's not what I said john!!
Oh yes you did...!!!
"There was a deep suspicion that the two of them had been racing or involved in a road rage incident."
It wasn't me that said said the suspicion was that they were racing along with road rage suspicion.Oh yes you did...!!!

I said the facts as I recalled them, you spun them.
That is how Wars start.
I actually watched the series as a result of the article, it was a very interesting look into the conditions under which they work, and how they operate. Well worth looking to see if it's available anywhere.
I think the current phraseology is 'whatever'.I may be a warmonger but you're a rumourmonger.
Prepare to defend yourself.
I wish I could remember what it was called, fantastically interesting.
I believe it was called The Crash Detectives and was about a crash investigation branch of a particular Welsh force
You're a "whatevermonger"...?I think the current phraseology is 'whatever'.
Just checked you can get the second series on BBC IPlayer
Cunning title that!!
And every force operates there AIU department differently. My old force where I was a crash investigator works differently to say the Met, who work differently to say Hertfordshire who work differently to Gloucestershire.
In some areas the workload is enormous
My recollection of the programme is that there was suspicion.
Why is everyone being so argumentative?
