    Fuck, I'm in Gravesend bit too close for comfort eh'

    I always look at the car, 95% of under's drive Skoda Octavia's, If the windows are blacked, I'm gonna keep going, f i see two people, with uniform, i'll stop. You can drive to a station and see if they are legit or not, your soon see when they speed off when they realise, Life is so shit sometimes.

    Some Undercover police do NOT wear uniform, completely defeats the object of being undercover otherwise. Ive been pulled alot by undies, they have all worn plain clothes.

    I dont stop unless they are flashing blue lights and sounding the siren at me!!

    Even then, I still ask for I.D before removing my helmet or keys.

    Im like a cornershop owner, NO I.D = NO service

    That is...shocking to be honest.

    It's beleievable though, at least you're okay. I'm not going to stop for undercover cars now, just in case...
    I think if this did happen though, if I wasn't heavily outnumbered, I'd be swinging for them with my carbon gloves on...

    Dont stop for un marked cars with tinted windows. Genuine police cars even unmarked dont have privacy glass cos you gotta be able to identify them.
    Round this way all unmarked are BMW and recently Mazda 6. If your not sure dont stop until your somewhere well lit or on a forecourt of a garage "cctv". Your exscuse if theyre real for failing to stop is any of the reasons "unsafe to stop, wasn't sure if they meant you, felt for your own safety" and if they're in plain clothes ask to see their warrant cards.

    wow,thats crap news, christ, the guys are lucky to be alive after getting smacked along-side the head with a hammer .

    i guess you need to work out a plan of action before going for a ride ,sort of a worst case scenario..

    Wow, that's screwed up! All of that for a couple of bikes? They must have been pretty keen to be honest. And what MiNoR said, that does make sense that they can all the parts could be sold in a matter of hours if they stopped 'em down.

    In the future, to ANYONE who gets pulled over make sure you do the following, until you know for a FACT that they are legitimate Police
    1. Keep the keys in the ignition.
    2. Do NOT take your helmet off.
    3. Get off the bike and immediately turn around and face the 'police' who have pulled you over.

    i dont see why you would get off your bike for a car full of people you dont know are even police lol? bad advice tbh.
    it is not an offence not to stop for unmarked cars. also not an offence to want to keep your helmet/engine on (generally speaking)

    Scenario: You can hear sirens behind you, you look in your mirror and you can see flashing blue lights and the sound of a police car behind you. You acknowledge that it's an unmarked police car.

    You're not exactly going to go 'fuck the police' and gun it on your 50cc hairdryer are you? Your first, initial thoughts are to stop, it's common knowledge. And you don't continue to ride down the road with a police car that's trying to get you to stop, by examining exactly how many police men are in the car do you, as I said before, you just stop and see what they're after.

    And most probably, the officer will ask you to take your helmet off because if you decide to nutt the officer then he won't be able to recognise your face to track you down. Although it may not be an 'offence' as you stated, most officers will definitely ask you to take it off. And they will no doubtably ask to turn the engine off, they don't want to see you ride off into the abyss right?


    Read what I stated in the reply, only do the three things I stated "until you know for a FACT that they are legitimate Police"
