I live in the largest private housing estate in Europe. This happens to have the same postcode as an neighbouring town, which happens to be quite rough with a high crime rate.

So it's only natural that they have to police the whole area equally and not be bias.

But why do traffic police find the need to follow me to my street everytime I come home!? They don't pull me over, just follow me.
It's really getting annoying now and I'd wish they would p*ss off! They are making me really paranoid Laughing

I thought it was just because I am a young driver. But they seem to be doing it to everyone at the moment. They pulled over my mother about a month ago saying she was acting suspicious and made her give breath test, just because she was driving rather slow.

Anybody have similar problems?

Awww, that's nice. They are just making sure you get home alright. Very Happy

I got followed all the way home once, I was using all sorts of twists and short cuts so it wasn't just coincidence. I got off the bike in my front garden and shouted 'WHAT?' at him and he just drove off.

Honestly, I only have to have a rozzer look at me and I ride like I've had ten pints, frankly it's embarrassing.

I had a cop follow me in the van last week as soon as I saw him my driving style changed from "confident" to " I am on mescalin and have the bodies of three headless children in the back".

Why is it a problem? It would be different if a random car was following you home. At least if they see your bike with another rider on it they would know something isn't right.

I imagine its not the same officers everytime and they are probably carrying out checks. When you go to the address the bike is registered to you then they probably decide they dont need to speak to you

Is the rough area you mention BBL? Trying to work out which area you're in...

I once had an unmarked plod follow me home (I had spotted the uniforms inside), when I got near home, I went around the block twice, with him following me, then he pulled me over.

I explained that I'd heard of potential thieves following punters home, which was why I'd circled around, they seemed a bit puzzled and went on their way. Smile ( Mind you, I was driving a Peugeot 205 at the time Embarassed )
