I was stopped by the police on Sunday in London, they had been following for a while and finally got me in a quiet side street. They played the good cop bad cop, one was really enthusiastic, the other was going on that I had a brake light out. I have 4 brake lights and had three working, so both sides were lit.... he also complained that the BTTF kit covers a portion of the lights, which it does, but not by much.
Anyway, I think the bad cop was going to give me a producer to get the car inspected by an MOT station as he was not impressed at all. He asked how I managed to get it Mot'd, by which I said they had no issues (which they did not).
It was also at that point (after getting a bit peeved by now) that I mentioned that we'd just come back from filming for the day with the Cambridge traffic police for the next series of Police Camera Action. I also menitoned that the road traffic cops loved it and had no concerns with the car (after inspecting it). I also said that i would have to call them to scrub the use of the car if they felt it was unroadworthy with the kit as its obviously on a program devoted to making the streets safer... :?
Well........the good cop found it funny.
I'll keep ya posted on when its being aired, but it looks like fun, they had Alistair Stewart driving it around talking in it, and then he disappears off down a runway before it disappears off into the future leaving fire trails behind...... I would pop a photo on the forum but I can't get it to work!!! how do you do it?
