Why do people always assume the worst in the police? The police are here with a specific role. You should try doing the job or at least show some conceptual understanding of how the world works to goodjjp: Uh huh, and did you happen to know WHY they might have been doing that?

Look what I found in an article From Tokyo, to Las Vegas, and now to London with the MPH auto show, car enthusiasts the world over have been gorged with new product lately, and though we can't cover it all we just couldn't go past this new cop car. "Getaway drivers and outside lane lovers beware!" reads the press release, "The Met Police has a teamed up with Brit supercar manufacturer, Caparo, to conceive a brand new Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV) for the future – on show at MPH ’07 this weekend." The Caparo T1 RRV would have to be the quickest police car the world has ever seen. If you see this Formula 1 inspired carbon car in your rear view mirror don't both trying to outrun it because not even a highly modified twin supercharged Ferrari F430 could outpace this thing - it's really quite mad. It'll scramble from zero to 100km/h in less than 3.0 seconds flat, and will hammer from zero to 160km/h (0-100mph) in 5.0 seconds, which is fast enough to remind you what you had for breakfast. The Caparo T1 RRV police pursuit car is powered by a 429kW (575hp) 3.5-litre V8 engine that revs to engine speeds that make the new BMW M3 look tired and breathless. "Capable of accelerating from a Police lay-by to 100mph in just 5 seconds and onto a top speed of 200mph, the Caparo T1 RRV would be deployed to hunt down car criminals within the M25," reads the press release. The M25 is the large stretch of highway that circles London city, home to more than a few speeders. "Like everything else in the Met Police's armoury, this bespoke RRV is intended as a deterrent. Just check your mirrors next time you fancy breaking the speed limit!" Thats nothing compared to the UK Cops are getting.
