Metropolitan area car

That'll teach the self-righteous PC control freaks!

Nice pic! Will they be done for dangerous driving? I think NOT!

Andy

[Rosc0PColtrane]

And you can deduce from that picture that the police were driving dangerously...

[Andy325i]

Nope! Obvoiusly the Pug driver that was in the wrong! LOL!

It used to be that Pugs were useless french tin cans and BMW's were German Hard as nails motors...

Rather worryin how mangled the cop car is compared to the pug!

[OBs]

Oops!

And you can deduce from that picture that the police were driving dangerously...

What? And you can 'deduce' or tell that they wernt?

I see a Pug driver pulling out of a parking space in front of a police car without looking.

[320iAN]

i see cop car speeding down the tight road ... 999 call? and smacking the Pug as it either
A, didn't move over enough
B, came from a side road
or
C, the driver of the Pug was the one being chased

looks like BMW designed there crumple zones better than Puggit

give it a couple of weeks and they'll both be on ebay "one careful owner"

[StuBeeDoo]

At least all the right airbags deployed!

I see a Pug driver pulling out of a parking space in front of a police car without looking.

Going by the extent of the damage on the squad car, I'd hazard a guess that the Pug driver is deaf too (or the Feds were speeding without having the sirens/blues going).

I can just see the ad in auto trader salvage/repairables - 'slight tap on front corner'

I see they have put speed humps on the road to 'increase safety' only for the old bill to come along and try to T bone someone minding their own business

[oze30]

Airbags work! and the curtains in the pug! I reckon pug driver didn't look when pulling out.

[320iAN]

tell you what though, i wouldn't mind them roof lights for my E39, would finish my mod's off

[oze30]

Whats the round thing under the drivers fog light?

[Rosc0PColtrane]

My comments were more in annoyance at the childish readiness to have a dig at the coppers.

[saqi]

lol, feel sorry for the peugot driver though, probably wasnt his fault but no doubt peugot will get the blame

[curryp]

if a peugeot pulled out in front of me id hit him aswell.one less on the roads!

au revoir

[casper8r]

That'll teach the self-righteous control freaks!

Come on, not all French car drivers are that bad!

[ad318i]

lol, feel sorry for the peugot driver though, probably wasnt his fault but no doubt peugot will get the blame

it was is fault though, it was so obvious he was pulling out of the space without looking

[Speedtouch]

Clearly, Plod shouldn't have been going so fast down a road with speed humps. Had they have been observing the speed limit and borne in mind the likelihood of other motorists maneouvering in the urban surroundings, the accident would most likely have been avoided.

Why is tax-payers money being wasted to have them flying about crashing BMWs anyway? Surely an Allegro 1.1HL would suffice.

I remember when Plod used them. .....And Sherpa vans!

[OBs]

I think the Peugeot driver was reversing into the space! (Sorry no ones said that option)

Besides the pug will be a Diesel and would take more then 5 seconds to pull out of that space, giving the speeding plod car enough time to swerve into that open bit of road / no pavement side of the two way road avoiding any children that they will naturally be looking out for in a residentual area etc etc...

I reckon the `plod` who was driving was skinning up at the time hence didnt see the old goat in the pigeon pulling out
Hang the b4stard I say

[StuBeeDoo]

Wouldn't be the first time........

Come to think of it....maybe he was getting a BJ from his passenger while skinning up(and driving) hence none of them saw the Pigeon pulling out?

[OBs]

I reckon the `plod` who was driving was skinning up, on his mobile, drinking tea, eating donuts all whilst on meths and bashing one out over Hardcore 60+ Gmilf mags at the time hence didnt see the old goat in the pigeon pulling out
Hang the b4stard I say

Rather worryin how mangled the cop car is compared to the pug!

The damaged side of the Pug is out of sight (on it's left side I think). Having said that though, the e39 BMW is hit in an area of the body designed to readily collapse, while the Pug (like the BM) may have been hit in the lower hoops of the A pillar and B pillar which are very much harder to penetrate as they form key protective parts of the passenger cabin.

Not that I ever notice these things

[Morat]

Another E39 radiator needing replacement... no surprise there then!

[smithy318i]

TBH, it looks like a very low speed impact. 25 to 30 is my guess.

[Rosc0PColtrane]

I think a dragon swooped in, snatched a small child, causing the copper to swerve lightly and have a swipe at it with his light sabre. The pug driver was actually praying to Mecca at the time and knocked the hand brake off. It would have been ok except for the poltergeists who turned the wheel and pushed the pug into the coppers path.

[Morat]

bloody dragons!

We'll remind you of that if you ever need them and wait ages for them to arrive - sorry it took us so long to get to you, had to go through a 20 zone!!!!

As has been said, looks like a very low speed impact!!! There was a lot more damage than that to the vectra i crashed at tickover in first - speedo weren't even off 0!!!!!

erm............when you say "he"........

[Gwynleym10]

Blitz - do you know where that is? Looks like it round Stoke Newi area?

Nobody looks in London - they just drive! Probably on their mobile as well...
