00:00Can I have three 1955 burger meals, please?
00:05And can I have one with a chocolate milkshake, please?
00:09But dinner will have to wait.
00:13Reports come in from a member of the public of an upturned car close by.
00:20The chances are it's on its roof in what we'd refer to as a live lane,
00:24where cars, members of the public are driving along.
00:27The vehicle is on it, on the hard shoulder. I'll give you an update of the injuries in a moment.
00:34Oh dear.
00:35Why is anybody in it?
00:37When you look in that vehicle, there's that moment of hesitation before you do.
00:43It's almost just pinch yourself, prepare, because the reality is you may be looking in and be faced with a dead body.
00:50Is there anybody with it?
00:51No. We've not been ejected, have they?
00:54When you see nothing, it is a little bit worrying because you think, where could they have gone?
01:02It's quite a bit of...
01:04You what?
01:05It's not blood, is it?
01:06No.
01:07Have they been thrown out, have they run off?
01:11There's a load of beer cans, we've legged it.
01:17No price for guessing, there's plenty of open lager cans in the car.
01:22So straight away, I'm thinking obviously we've got a drunk driver who wants to run away somewhere.
01:28Help comes from a lorry driver who stopped when he saw the crash.
01:32Have you seen anybody running off from it or...?
01:34We're walking down there asking for a lift to Leeds, I presume it's a driver from here.
01:38Yeah.
01:39He's down, he's down there.
01:41Right.
01:42I just saw a car come on its roof sliding across the front of my truck and at the barrier there.
01:50I've just seen him, I think I've just seen him walking down the arch over asking for a lift to Leeds, I presume that's him and it looks like he's had a drink or two.
01:59Anyone walking on a dark motorway is a danger to themselves and others.
02:04A drunk and injured man even more so.
02:07We're going to try and find him and these wagon drivers have seen somebody walking down.
02:13He's fallen down!
02:18Just one minute, where is he down here?
02:20Yeah.
02:21Hello?
02:229-0, he's gone down embankment.
02:25No, no visual.
02:26Somebody's just seen him go down the embankment a couple of minutes ago.
02:33He's not going to have got far, is he?
02:34Mines head up.
02:36Is he in here?
02:45He's here, Dale.
02:46Oi!
02:47Oi!
02:48Come on, get up.
02:49Yeah.
02:50Get up.
02:51Are you in that car on your own?
02:52Put your hands where I can see him.
02:53Put your hands.
02:54Right.
02:55Get them for us, Dale.
02:56Right.
02:579-0.
02:58I'm so sorry.
02:59Right.
03:00Is there anybody in that car with you?
03:01No.
03:02No.
03:03I'm so sorry.
03:04Yeah, well, I need you to stand up.
03:05Er, he's...
03:06He's not very compus mentis.
03:07I'm sorry, Dale.
03:08Yeah, well, as long as you're not injured, that's the main thing.
03:09Right, come on.
03:10What's your name?
03:11What's your name?
03:12Lewis, Ian.
03:13Come on, Ian.
03:14Let's get you back up.
03:15God, I'm so sorry.
03:16Are you alright?
03:17Have you hurt yourself?
03:18No.
03:19I'm so sorry, Lon.
03:20Don't apologise.
03:21Let's just get you somewhere safe, alright?
03:22I can apologise.
03:23Come on, just be careful.
03:24I can't.
03:25Don't apologise.
03:26Come on, Ian.
03:27Let's get you back up.
03:28God.
03:29I'm so sorry.
03:30Are you alright?
03:31Have you hurt yourself?
03:32No.
03:33I'm so sorry, Lon.
03:34He's immediately apologising to us.
03:35He's a prime example of...
03:37It's too late to say sorry, really.
03:39You're gonna get dealt with.
03:41Er, to the full extent we can.
03:43Don't apologise.
03:44Let's just get you somewhere safe, alright?
03:46I can apologise.
03:47It's...
03:48Come on.
03:49Just be careful.
03:50Look where you're walking.
03:51It's disgusting.
03:52Ian, just look where you're walking, alright?
03:54I'm just gonna put these on you.
03:56I don't want you to worry.
03:57But it's a dangerous place in your cars, alright?
04:00How much have you had to drink, Ian?
04:02Not a lot, honestly.
04:04What's your idea of not a lot?
04:06One or two?
04:07One.
04:08One?
04:09Honestly.
04:10Right.
04:11So you don't think you're over?
04:12Why have you run off, then, if you're not over?
04:15I'm just terrified.
04:17Yeah.
04:18No situation.
04:19Right.
04:20So you've had more than one?
04:21Yeah.
04:22Thankfully, only he's involved tonight, and we're not dealing with some unfortunate who's
04:33been hurt or even killed because of this guy's actions and decision to get behind a wheel.
04:39We're absolute menaces.
04:41I just need some help.
04:43Yeah, yeah.
04:44Well, we're gonna sort that out, aren't we?
04:47It's a bit warmer here.
04:48You'll just sit tight there for a minute.
04:51If you decide to have a drink, and you make that decision to get behind a wheel of a car,
04:55these could be the sort of consequences you find yourself in,
04:58laid in a ditch 50 yards from a motorway, waiting to be found, basically.
05:03As they prepare to give the remorseful driver a breath test to see just how drunk he is.
05:12In Bradford, PC's Mike Rowe and Chris Spencer are also heading out to the M62 motorway.
05:18You get some days where everyone, the world seems to be against you.
05:22So it's just nice to have a day where you've maybe spoken to a few people,
05:25you've even spoken to a nice person.
05:27That's always a bonus, because it doesn't happen much.
05:32We're on our way to the motorway, and going through the city centre,
05:36I had a window down and heard what sounded like skidding and a look over.
05:42And this Yarris here, right in front.
05:45I don't know if you just saw that.
05:47This Yarris here, for some reason he's just yanked his handbrake on driving out the road,
05:51like you do.
05:53It's alright, isn't it?
05:57It's still outside of here with Wyatt, huh?
06:03At this point in time, we're thinking,
06:05alright, we'll light him up, we'll see what happens.
06:08You always get the butterflies in your stomach at the beginning of it,
06:13but then you have to really rein it in and calm yourself down.
06:17Tango 62.
06:20Is this kid going to go for it?
06:23Yeah, Golf Yankee 03 Zulu Tango Golf.
06:28It's making off for us now on White Abbey Road.
06:31Then all of a sudden he just puts his foot down a little bit, and he's off.
06:35Just gone straight over that crossroads.
06:38No regard to anybody's safety whatsoever.
06:40We can't just do that.
06:42Here on Whetley Terrace now.
06:44Golf Yankee 03 Zulu Tango Golf.
06:47Blue Yarris.
06:49Both of me and Mike know the local area.
06:52That is a dead end, we both know it.
06:54And you kind of know what's coming straight away there.
06:56We've got a right-right.
06:57Stand by.
06:58It's off-road, we've lost it.
07:00And sure enough, he's gone straight over the grass.
07:02And it's somewhere that we don't want to go.
07:05Jump out.
07:06You don't want to wreck your car.
07:08You don't want to endanger any kids that could be running out from behind the side of this building.
07:12Now, I'll run.
07:14Yes, mate.
07:15It's gone over at Blenheim, so we can't follow it.
07:17If they've gone round the corner, there's a child there on the grass.
07:20He isn't going to stop.
07:21It must be an easy way to live your life.
07:23You don't think of anyone else.
07:25He's damaged his car instantly doing that.
07:27So we're going to spin round the block.
07:28I imagine it's going to be right round the block.
07:30Mike scouts for signs of the Yarris, while Chris pulls up an address for the car.
07:35Comes back to Southfield Square.
07:39It's a street close by.
07:41There you go.
07:42You see?
07:43There it is.
07:44Mikey boy strikes again.
07:48Obviously, this is the car that's just made off from us.
07:55We were going to do a couple of enquiries around here, because there's quite a group of people
07:58that's gathering.
07:59It's going to be someone down here that knows what's happened.
08:01The car's got away from us.
08:03Is he disqualified?
08:04Has he just got no documents for the car?
08:06Is he maybe wanted?
08:08They might have the car, but with no sign of the driver, the cops step up their enquiries
08:14with a search inside.
08:16There's nothing of any real interest.
08:19There's nothing inside that makes us think it's stolen at this moment in time.
08:24There's no drugs are out here?
08:25No, there's nothing.
08:26No weapons.
08:27I would say that he is watching us now.
08:30When we came onto the road, there was a group of lads at the bottom.
08:33I'm not a betting man, but I think it's a safe bet that he will have been one of them.
08:37Nobody will ever admit it was them.
08:40The relationship between the police and some of the communities down there isn't good,
08:45especially with the younger end.
08:47It isn't true for everyone, but they don't really want to help us.
08:54The fact that these people are walking past and they're taking such an interest in it,
08:58it just makes you wonder how much they know and if they were the driver.
09:05What is it? All right.
09:06Shall I call you to take it?
09:08No, mate. We're all over it. It's been told away as we speak.
09:11Does game told away?
09:12Yeah, it is.
09:13Why is that?
09:14You don't even need to worry about it.
09:15You do get a lot of people who come and want to know what's going on.
09:17They always want to get involved.
09:18They always want to tell us what we should be doing and what we shouldn't be doing.
09:23Again, it's just part of the game, really.
09:25Joining in the game, Chris and Mike play Guess the Driver.
09:29Have you got a bit of a look?
09:31Is it the kid on that one?
09:33Or that one, do you think?
09:35I cut this out for them, so...
09:37We're going to get over it.
09:39Oh, there you go. That's who it is.
09:41He's come back. He's had a look. We think, yeah, it's probably him.
09:43As soon as we say it, off he goes his way on his toes.
09:46That guy was just walking off.
09:49With no help from the public, the cops hit a dead end.
09:53A visit to the registered owner could throw up some clues.
09:56What's the betting we go around and it's going to be that kid sat at the door?
10:00Yeah, yeah.
10:01All right, officer.
10:02While the mystery driver of the abandoned Yaris is still at large...
10:07Back on the M62, PC's Doug Lofthouse is still questioning the man who did a runner after crashing his car.
10:14He's obviously got some issues at the minute, haven't he, with his health and wellbeing.
10:20A paramedic arrives to check him over.
10:23Hiya. What's happened, you know?
10:25The lorry stopped dead in front of me.
10:27Yeah.
10:28I just hit the brakes and the car over turns.
10:32Okay.
10:33He's putting his hand up to being the driver but just can't accept, obviously, to take responsibility.
10:39In his mind, it may be right, but his mind's probably not working as clearly as everyone else's around him
10:45and he's being affected by the beer goggles.
10:48I've got to let him.
10:52I've got to kill someone.
10:54You're such a monster, aren't you?
10:57God, how sick is that?
11:00Police have not injured anybody.
11:02Police.
11:03Nobody else's, only all cars involved, Ian, all right?
11:06Making sure he's unhurt is important, but the cops are more concerned with finding out if he's guilty of drinking and driving.
11:13Right, Ian, if you could take a big deep breath and keep going, I'd say to stop, yeah?
11:16Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going.
11:21Stop.
11:22He's blown 116 on his own device, but we're talking that he's potentially, well, he's over three and a bit times the legal limit.
11:34Legal limit's 35.
11:35There's two sort of types of drink driver.
11:38One would be somebody who's maybe made a bit of a foolish decision, had a little drink and decided to risk it on the way home.
11:45And then there's other people, what, three, four, five times the limit.
11:49And although, yeah, he's upset, he's remorseful, the sympathy level he'll get offered from me personally is totally different.
11:57He'll still get dealt with professionally, but at the end of the day he could have avoided this entirely.
12:03But it's not the first time he's been caught.
12:06I've found this guy's driving licence record and he's shown us a revoked licence regarding previous strength drive matters.
12:16And, in fact, he was given a four-year disqualification for drink drive matters, which expired last week.
12:22In my experience, a four-year ban for a drink driver defence, it's not a first offence.
12:29It would be a second, third or fourth.
12:31The bans tend to get longer progress, further down the line you go.
12:35So, to get a four-year ban, it's the first one of that nature I've come across.
12:40The paramedics here are happy to release him into our custody.
12:44So, they've obviously checked him out, everything's stable.
12:47When I can get in there, I'll be formally arresting him on suspicion of driving whilst over at Limit.
12:52With a long record of drinking and driving, this time the consequences may be more serious.
13:02Back in Bradford, Chris and Mike are still trying to find the driver of the Yaris abandoned after a chase through the north of the city.
13:09The registered keeper on our computer car lived a stone-thrower.
13:13The plan was I was going to walk up to the house to knock on the door just to see if the owner was there.
13:20A man claiming to be the owner turns up.
13:22Hello, mate.
13:23With his son.
13:24My son was driving.
13:26All right.
13:27Is this him here?
13:28Yeah.
13:29All right, spot on.
13:30What a bit daft, wasn't it?
13:31It was.
13:32Yeah.
13:33Right.
13:34You went in the car with him?
13:35No, no.
13:36No?
13:37All right, fair enough then.
13:38All right then.
13:39It was totally unheard of in Bradford.
13:41That's why I, at that time, was thinking, hmm, I wonder if this is a wind-up.
13:46We were both on the back foot there thinking, oh my God, somebody's actually come back and admitted that they were wrong.
13:53What's going on then?
13:55Just, er, I had a bit of temptation, mate.
13:57My mate was saying, come pick me up, come pick me up, come pick me up.
14:00I said, I can't pick you up, mate.
14:01You'd be sat in your mum's car every day, your dad's car every day.
14:04Just come pick me up.
14:05So you just thought you'd take it for a spin?
14:07I imagine he's mortified that he's sat in the back of that police car.
14:11I mean, you saw him coming back, didn't you, to check the car out.
14:14He can't believe he's actually sat there.
14:17And neither could we.
14:19Have you got a full licence or what, provisional?
14:22Never, never even applied for one?
14:24Alright.
14:25I'll come.
14:29He's couldn't be bothered.
14:30He's ultimately found, sort of, no insurance.
14:32He hasn't got a driving licence.
14:34But, you have to, you have to give him some credit for coming back with his dad.
14:38I don't know, I imagine that wasn't there, prior to him running into it.
14:42Right.
14:43All this has come off.
14:44It's come off at the back.
14:45He's been going off road.
14:47I tell you.
14:49I'm so sorry.
14:50No, he's, no, no.
14:51I honestly am really grateful for you, you've done it.
14:54A lot of people are very loyal, especially to the family around here.
14:57So for him to come down and say that, 10 out of 10.
15:00He was actually quite upset at one point.
15:03I think it was more the fact of, he was losing face in his community.
15:06He was saying that he was quite an upstanding, well-respected member of his community.
15:10And this was just going to bring shame on him.
15:12I'm getting locked up, aren't I?
15:14At the minute, I don't know.
15:16Yeah.
15:17We'll see.
15:18He may be in trouble with the cops, but it's Dad's motor that's about to be towed away.
15:23The reason we're going to take your car is because of what's happened, alright?
15:27The recovery guy is already here.
15:29So the wheels are already set in motion with that, alright?
15:31I've got to get his documents.
15:33Yeah.
15:34Honestly, it's just two minutes.
15:35You can get the documents.
15:36What do you need?
15:37What do you need to do?
15:38You haven't got any idea with you or anything like that?
15:40No.
15:41I appreciate that, alright?
15:43If you have got insurance and you can prove that now then, you've come down here.
15:48You're helping us, so I don't want to be unfair with you.
15:51We'll be more than unfair with you, alright?
15:53At the last minute, the cops decide there may be a fairer way to handle this.
15:58If you can bring, I need his driving licence and his insurance, alright?
16:04If Chris can get proof of insurance, Dad could take his car home.
16:08I can't let my father or mother get in trouble for this.
16:11It's not their fault, is it?
16:13He obviously has a lot of respect for his dad.
16:15For him to go home and say that to him, and then his dad, for him to bring him back down,
16:18he obviously thinks, you know, he's doing the right thing, which is great.
16:22Every father wants to think the son's a good lad, don't they?
16:25Yeah, I feel for you.
16:27Yeah, it's just a pain for you, isn't it?
16:29It's one of those things where he's your son at the end of the day, isn't it?
16:33The owner's friend turns up with the documents confirming that Dad is the legal keeper.
16:39The cops decide that the car can stay, and the recovery man leaves empty-handed.
16:45If you do shit, if you do the crime, you've got to do time with it.
16:48Own your hands up to any mistakes you do.
16:51And after seeing the error of his ways and fessing up, the son escapes a night in the cells.
16:57But he'll still have to face Dad.
17:00Amir, take care, mate.
17:02I imagine we're going to see you again when we come out and speak to your dad.
17:05See you later.
17:10Could have knocked me down with a feather.
17:13That is not a normal occurrence that someone is so honourable
17:16and turns up and actually takes responsibility for their actions.
17:19I don't really know what to say.
17:23Maybe we shouldn't all be so cynical.
17:25After that, maybe your opinions change a little bit.
17:28Mine certainly have.
17:29That maybe not everybody is as...
17:32I don't know.
17:34Maybe there is some decent folk left out there after all.
17:37For every helpful member of the public, there's always one who refuses to play ball.
17:47It's after midnight and Chris and Mike are planning a late night shop before hitting the motorway.
17:53I can't do another kebab.
17:55No, I can't.
17:58I might get some fruit from Asda.
18:00I might get some cereal and that from Asda if that's alright with you.
18:03It's so easy just to eat on.
18:05It's just convenient, isn't it?
18:07But before they can fill up, Mike spots something ahead.
18:13I've just seen a car go past all headlights on and hazard warning lights flashing as if the alarm's going off.
18:19And not really hanging about either.
18:21In the distance you can see this Civic driving in the middle of the three lanes and it's overtaking, undertaking everybody.
18:33The cops follow the car into a nearby supermarket on the Bradford Ring Road.
18:38But it looks like midnight snacks could be off the menu for everyone.
18:42The supermarket was shut, so it's not like we were short of space to pull over.
18:47But the car's decided to drive all the way to the front door and stop.
18:51Hi, my love.
18:53And then this is where it began to become a little bit...
18:56Maybe this is not as straightforward as we thought.
18:59Yeah, he's giving me a look thinking, what is this woman doing?
19:03She did just turn her back on him. She totally just ignored him.
19:08Have you got a second, my love, or are we just going to...
19:10No, are we just going to talk to all the children? Are you actually going to talk to me?
19:13No, I will do. Sorry, let me just calm him down.
19:16They seem absolutely fine. They're all sat laughing and smiling.
19:19Do you want to jump out the car for a second, my love?
19:23I will do. I'm okay.
19:24The kids were really nice. I don't think...
19:26At first, they really understood what was happening and they were quite happy playing.
19:31They were just quite excited to see a policeman, it seemed.
19:34All looking forward, looking at me, smiling and happy.
19:37She may well be pissed. I think she is.
19:42Sweetheart.
19:46Right, do you want to jump out of the car, my love?
19:50This is the last chance I'm going to ask before we're going to help you get out of the car, alright?
19:54Do you want to jump out of the car for me, please? We should have a quick chat.
19:56Yeah.
19:57No problem.
19:58We think this will make us fun.
20:01Do you just want to jump in the back of our car for two seconds?
20:05We should have a quick chat about your driving?
20:07When she did get out of the car, it was just argumentative, straight away.
20:12Do you want to jump in the back of our car, if you don't mind, please, my love?
20:14Don't touch me.
20:15Do you want to jump in the back of the car, then, please?
20:17Don't touch me.
20:18This was probably going to be more work than we initially thought.
20:22What's your name, my love?
20:25Sorry?
20:26Is it Noreen?
20:27Yeah.
20:28Yeah, Noreen Akhtar?
20:29No.
20:30What's your surname?
20:31Simon Noreen.
20:32It's what, sorry?
20:33Simon Noreen.
20:34The lady's name doesn't match the registered keeper of the car.
20:39Right.
20:41Whose car is it, then?
20:43It's my mate.
20:44Noreen, I just need to check your ID.
20:46No, no, you can do, you can do.
20:47Noreen, you need to listen to me.
20:48By all means.
20:49I need to check your ID, my love.
20:51Can you just pass me your right pointy finger?
20:53This finger here.
20:54The fingerprint device is linked to the police national computer.
20:58It should save time by instantly telling the cops who they're dealing with.
21:02But it depends on the woman co-operating.
21:05Where?
21:06The camera, Noreen?
21:07Fine, fine, fine.
21:08Pass me your right pointy finger.
21:09Say it nicely.
21:10That finger there, please, now.
21:11Say it nicely, I'll give you it anyway.
21:13I just said, please, now, pass you that finger.
21:15Yeah, I'm going to give you it anyway.
21:16Right.
21:17She's being quite awkward here.
21:18This is a straightforward five seconds of time.
21:22Put your finger on there and we'll find out who you are.
21:24Right, let go.
21:25Put it on the screen.
21:26Where are you putting it?
21:27There.
21:28Right, so I need to hold onto it while it lights up.
21:29No, you don't.
21:30Wait.
21:31When Eddie gets up here.
21:33We should have to leave with kids.
21:34Well, it ain't ready.
21:35That's why I'm saying I don't put your finger on there yet.
21:37That turned out to be, again, a lot more difficult than it normally is.
21:41Now, your left one, please.
21:43Same finger, same screen.
21:45Quickly, because it resets and we're going to have to do it again.
21:47I'll be nice a bit.
21:48Well, it's got to reset it.
21:49I'll do it now then.
21:50Don't touch me.
21:53Mum's time-wasting antics means the cops can't get a positive reading on her fingerprints.
21:57We're just waiting for someone else to come up to us now.
21:59We can't leave the four children in the car, so we're going to see if we can get someone
22:02to come up and babysit, in effect, so we can find out where she actually lives.
22:05A simple stop-check is turning into something more complicated.
22:10Taking two motorway cops from more important duties.
22:13But the cops have no choice, as Mum, and now the kids, are proving to be a bit of a handful.
22:19Are you all right?
22:20I'm not my mum.
22:21You want your mum?
22:22We're just talking to your mum first.
22:24Can I jump in?
22:25Can I open the door?
22:26Yeah.
22:27All we're doing is having a quick chat to your mum.
22:29There's nothing to worry about.
22:30Your mum might need to come help us.
22:32She might just have to come with us, just for a bit.
22:35But what I'm going to do is I'm going to get one of my friends to come up and take you all home.
22:39What's your badge number?
22:41It's right there.
22:42Write it down for me?
22:43Nope.
22:44Oh, don't you have a pen?
22:46Oh, no, cos you're .
22:47I've got a pen here.
22:48You want to write it down for me, innit?
22:50No.
22:51Don't think so.
22:52No.
22:53Nope.
22:55I just want to have a look.
22:56Get off me.
22:57Don't touch me again.
22:58I'm not allowed to touch you.
22:59Well then you touched me, didn't you?
23:01I just want to get your badge number.
23:02Don't touch me.
23:03Sit back in the seat.
23:04Sit back in the seat now.
23:06It was a total tirade of foul language.
23:09It ain't the first time I've heard it, but to that sort of level and from that sort of person,
23:14a middle-aged woman, you just don't expect it.
23:17I have not moved.
23:18Give me your badge number.
23:19Am I swearing at you?
23:20Sit back in your seat.
23:21Sit back in your seat.
23:22I've not moved my boat.
23:23It's the .
23:24Sit back in your seat.
23:25Shut the .
23:26I've not moved out of my seat.
23:27Sit back in your seat.
23:28Give me your badge number.
23:29Sit back in your seat.
23:30Here!
23:31Give me your badge number.
23:32It's there.
23:33You can read it.
23:34I can't see it.
23:35If I could, I would have told you.
23:37Don't touch me.
23:38Sit back in your seat.
23:396, 3, 4.
23:40Sit back in your seat.
23:41I moved, bitch!
23:42What's going to happen next?
23:44It became ridiculous, so there's no way we're letting that carry on for much longer.
23:50I'm not having this.
23:52What?
23:53She's getting handcuffed.
23:54I'm going to say, yeah, she's ficed, isn't she?
23:56Yeah.
23:57Hand, give me a hand.
23:58He's lying.
23:59He's lying.
24:00He's lying.
24:01Hand, don't she?
24:02You all right?
24:03You all right?
24:04You all right?
24:05You all right?
24:06We're not good then.
24:07We're just having a quick chat with us all.
24:08No, he's not!
24:09And this is where it became, the kids then start to get a little bit agitated.
24:13They see their mum getting handcuffed.
24:14He's being nasty!
24:15Help us do something!
24:16We're on the back, is it?
24:17That's all right.
24:18Don't worry.
24:19Give me a hand.
24:20Can I just shut that dog?
24:22Give me your other hand.
24:23We become almost a pawn right in the middle of that situation where she's trying to use
24:28her kids against us.
24:30If I was to start shouting back at her, she's already annoying.
24:33That's going to make her even worse, which ultimately is going to make my job even harder.
24:39Two of us may look heavy-handed, but in the long run, it's not one of us really struggling
24:44and having to fight with a woman, it's two of us controlling her and handcuffing her
24:49in a safe manner.
24:50Ow!
24:51You're squashing my foot with the ****!
24:55Are you happy now?
24:58I'm just asking for her.
25:00Why are you being nasty?
25:02Go on, sit back.
25:03When we put the handcuffs on, we assumed that the problem was over then.
25:06But it just got worse again.
25:08You better open this door.
25:11Yes!
25:14She's got the handcuffs on.
25:16They're at the front of her.
25:18She's now using them to try and smash the window.
25:20Call the game, Ricky, Blana, game, Ricky.
25:24Open the door.
25:25Pass me the keys.
25:26She needs a window.
25:27Can I just tell me?
25:28Just tell me.
25:29Look at the window.
25:30It's not smashed yet with it in far off.
25:32Get any tooth man in.
25:34You ready?
25:35Yes, sir.
25:36I have to stay with these little mum.
25:37Ow!
25:38I'll kiss her!
25:39I'll kiss her!
25:40I'll kiss her!
25:41I'll kiss her!
25:42I'll kiss her!
25:43I'll kiss her!
25:44I'll kiss her!
25:45We're trying to stop the mum creating to stop the kids creating, but the more we try
25:49and stop her, the more wound up she gets, the more wound up they get.
25:56Just ridiculous.
25:58She's a total disgrace and total state.
26:03It looks like this is a job which may tie the motorway cops up all night long.
26:10Back on the M62, Doug and Dale are still dealing with the repentant drunk driver who
26:15crashed his car.
26:17Probably in prison, aren't they?
26:20Truthfully, I honestly don't know.
26:23I'd rather be honest with you, I don't know.
26:26I deserve to be.
26:28If you killed somebody, I'd say, yeah.
26:31Let's keep things into perspective if you've not killed anybody.
26:34It comes across very well, saying all the right things, whether that's just a show for
26:39us or whether that's the way it genuinely is, I'll never know, because we only get to
26:44see a very brief snippet of people's lives.
26:47You're a lucky, lucky man.
26:49And you might not think so sat there, but I can tell you now, look at the kind of road
26:54we're on.
26:55There's vehicles that's doing 56 mile an hour and there's cars that are doing 70 mile an hour,
26:5980 mile an hour, even 90.
27:01And guess what, you're still breathing, walking and talking.
27:06But I'll be honest with you, me and my colleague, we don't agree with what you've done, but it
27:12doesn't make us treat you any different.
27:14You're still a human being, aren't you?
27:16Some people might say I'm a little bit like a social worker, but I'm not.
27:20It's just a little bit of compassion at the end of the day, but it doesn't hurt for me
27:24to be civil to him.
27:27My mum brought me up and said manners are free.
27:30Treat everybody with respect and dignity, which is what I do.
27:36Just watch yourself as you get out, won't you?
27:38Can you manage?
27:39Yeah.
27:40Straight up to that door where my colleague is.
27:45The driver's brought into custody to undergo a more accurate breath test.
27:51I'll tell you what.
27:52Just I might have been arrested then.
27:54Yes sir.
27:55See you later.
27:56When you speak to him as a person, you look at his previous history.
28:02He's a very well-educated man who obviously has hit hard times.
28:07I'd have a lot more time and respect for him if he didn't get behind the wheel.
28:12You're potentially involving other people in it.
28:16And through no fault of their own, you could be on your way to visit your mum
28:20or go to the coast for the day and come across somebody like him.
28:23And potentially he could kill you.
28:25He's a danger to society.
28:27Right, so your first reading was 100.
28:30Your second one's 108.
28:32OK, so you're way over the drink drive limit of 35.
28:37Not only is he well over the limit, his current licence is still revoked following a previous
28:42four-year ban.
28:45Seeing what we see on such a regular basis, we see the potential consequence of what he's
28:50doing.
28:51The driver might have escaped with his life, but he won't escape the consequences when he
28:55goes to court.
28:57It's not me that decides if you go to prison.
28:58That's going to be a magistrate on the day, isn't it?
29:00If it were the first time, I'd better say definitely you're not going to go to prison,
29:03but because we've done this kind of thing before, it's a little bit different, isn't
29:07it?
29:08So I honestly don't know.
29:09I'd rather be honest with you and tell you.
29:11I don't know.
29:12Like I say, I don't want to lie to you because that's not my job, is it?
29:16He needs the help and he needs the support and he needs to get off the drink.
29:21If he goes to prison, that might help him a little bit maybe, and maybe he'll sort himself
29:27out.
29:28But will he do that?
29:30I don't know.
29:32Only he can decide if he's going to do it.
29:35Really, he's got to be strong himself.
29:37Best place for him if you ask me where he is right now.
29:43I fully expect he'll ultimately receive a custodial prison sentence for this offence.
29:51And rightly so.
29:52On the face of it, it's just going to keep going until there's an intervention of some
29:58sort.
29:59And my biggest worry is the intervention will be a serious accident where somebody's
30:04injured or killed.
30:06So, until he's able to control himself, keep him locked up for me.
30:15Back in Bradford, PC's Chris Spencer and Mike Rowe are still trying to bring their suspected
30:20drink driver to the station.
30:22I'm not doing nothing wrong, they've lied to me.
30:25They should have been on the motorway half an hour ago, but they're stuck in a supermarket
30:30car park.
30:31Unbelievable, isn't it?
30:32We don't know how over-limits she is, she smells of intoxicants.
30:35We haven't had a chance to breathalise her yet.
30:38And the cops also have a car full of children to deal with.
30:41It's just a vicious circle.
30:42The children are getting more upset, which is upsetting them all.
30:44With the children getting increasingly stressed, Chris tries once more to reason with the
30:51driver.
30:52It's just a quick chat.
30:53Let's have a quick chat for a minute.
30:55Right, this is getting a bit...
30:58This is getting stupid now, isn't it?
31:00Isn't it?
31:01Why the...
31:02Look what your kids...
31:03No, I don't give a shit.
31:04Right.
31:05I wasn't being rude to you.
31:07Look what you're doing to your kids.
31:08So, calm down for a second.
31:09No, you are doing it.
31:10Look how upset your kids are.
31:12Shut up!
31:13Right.
31:14Shut up!
31:15Is that a van here?
31:16What I want you to do, you need to arrive with this specimen of breath, otherwise you're
31:19going to be arrested for this as well, okay?
31:21Go on, do it.
31:22This is the machine here.
31:23Don't give a shit.
31:24Just arrest me.
31:25Move the way up.
31:26Right, that's fine then.
31:27So you've failed to provide for that, okay?
31:29I think I almost lost my temper at one point.
31:32But, yeah, I managed to take a deep breath, get out of the car and compose myself.
31:39It was tested.
31:41You are a disgrace, my love.
31:44This is ridiculous.
31:45You're a b****.
31:50The real issue there was the children.
31:53She wasn't forthcoming at all with any information.
31:55I don't think she was sober enough to give us any information.
31:58A colleague finally arrived to look after the kids, freeing up Mike and Chris to take Mum
32:03to the station.
32:04Don't f**** speak to me.
32:06Don't say a word.
32:07Shut that f**** up.
32:09Is that on camera, right?
32:11Yeah.
32:12Cool.
32:13These f**** need f**** shooting and I'll swear down.
32:16They'll get one to come in to them.
32:19Don't touch me.
32:21Get the seat below.
32:22Don't touch me.
32:23No one's giving me a hand, so move away.
32:25She's a middle-aged woman.
32:27I don't want to have to be grabbing her and pulling her down the corridor.
32:32I'd much rather she came of her own fruition because I don't want to hurt her.
32:36Look, I'm not even resisting there.
32:39Tell him to get off me.
32:41I'm not even resisting.
32:42One hour after stopping her, the cops finally get some answers.
32:46I'll correct the details.
32:47Yep.
32:48Go on then.
32:49She's a disqualified driver.
32:53So if you can further arrest her for the offence as well then.
32:58So what is her real name?
33:03We've found out her real name.
33:08We've found out she's got history.
33:09We know then it all becomes clear.
33:11It all falls into place that this isn't her first time.
33:15So with the clock ticking, the cops are keen to get her breathalysed.
33:19We spoke to her, it's nearly an hour ago now.
33:22She is clearly drunk and driving.
33:24It could be that if this takes so long it could go down to below that legal limit.
33:28And that evidence is lost.
33:30But it's still another 35 minutes before they get her on the machine.
33:34Take a deep breath.
33:36Place the mouthpiece in the mouth.
33:38Wait, wait.
33:39I've got a deadlock.
33:40Can I not have a bit of more?
33:41You can't.
33:42As soon as she's done.
33:43Wait, wait, wait, wait.
33:44Yeah.
33:45Deep breath in.
33:46You only have a certain amount of time to do this.
33:51Right, wait, wait.
33:54Yeah, this is one big game now definitely.
33:59You can tell people that have been here before just to buy that extra time.
34:04With this process it is just a matter of time.
34:07The longer it takes to get onto that machine,
34:10the more the likely it is that you'll be under the limit
34:12and she's tried her hardest to be under that limit.
34:15The legal limit is 35.
34:17The lower reading being 77.
34:20So you just over double the limit, aren't you?
34:23It turns out that even though that's taken almost two hours
34:26which is a phenomenal amount of time for this process.
34:29She's still two and a half times at the limit
34:31so it's just even more frightening about how much she was
34:34two and a half hours ago when she had the children in the car with her.
34:37The bottom line is it's sad for somebody to be doing that sort of thing
34:41with four kids in the car.
34:43It gets arrested and all of a sudden we are the most hated people in the world.
34:49For what? We've stopped your drink driving
34:52and maybe saved your life and your kids' life.
34:56That was a satisfying clunk that night.
35:00Every day across West Yorkshire,
35:02the motorway cops face the challenge of dealing with people they may not know
35:06and acting on information about them without always knowing the full picture.
35:11In Bradford, officers Paul Crabtree and James Alderson
35:14are working the day shift as part of the West Yorkshire Road Policing Unit.
35:19They're just off the motorway when a tip-off comes through on the radio.
35:23There's been some information received through to our control room.
35:27There's a vehicle up here, a Seat Leon,
35:29that's the phrases they've used up from the jam-packed full of drugs
35:33and is going to be selling them around this area,
35:35but it's just a case now of putting a selfie in the area
35:37and keeping an eye out and see what we get.
35:39Tip-offs that come through sort of lifetime like that are reasonably rare.
35:45An anonymous tip is not much to go on,
35:48but it's sometimes a shortcut to the criminals.
35:51It can come from members of the public,
35:54it can come from people who've seen it.
35:56Sometimes, bizarrely, it will come from rival drug dealers
35:59who want people taken out, oddly.
36:01As soon as that car appears, you get that little sort of flood of excitement.
36:11You get a little bit of a... you switch on and you go to another level
36:14because you think we've got it and now we're on here.
36:29Tango 4-9.
36:324-9, we're behind a vehicle that's had some information passed off there
36:35that it may be containing drugs.
36:37Are there any other traffic units, Toll Lane area, that can come and meet us?
36:42It's a busy afternoon on Bradford's city centre roads.
36:49We're in traffic, moving slowly.
36:51We'll not do it until you get an attempt.
36:53I'm on the radio there, trying to get another couple of units to come down
36:56so we can deal with him properly.
36:59And there's nothing unnatural about it.
37:01He's queuing in traffic, we're queuing in traffic.
37:03Police station's about 100 yards off to the right-hand side,
37:05so it's a perfectly normal situation for him at the minute.
37:08It's nothing suspicious.
37:10But the cops need to carefully plan their next move.
37:13The idea is that we're going to surprise him
37:15and we're going to appear with a lot of cars with the lights on around him
37:19so he's nowhere to go.
37:20Back up is now only minutes away.
37:23Looks pretty chilled out, mate.
37:25It does for now.
37:28I want a couple of vehicles down before I try and do anything.
37:314-9, we're still Whetley Lane, just passing Regency Court on the near side.
37:36We know something's going to happen because we're going to cause it.
37:39You physically sit up in the seat of it and get yourself a bit comfortable.
37:41It's odd.
37:43Right, where's that traffic now behind you in the traffic?
37:47If there's two of you behind and us, we'll go for a preemptive box if you want
37:52if it moves out and we'll get enough room around it.
37:54I'm sort of in control there, really.
37:56James is doing the driving and I'm on the radio, so I'm talking to the others
37:59and it's probably going to be on my say-so to go, right, do it now.
38:02So, if I do it wrong, we might lose it.
38:04Crabber, turn his lights off.
38:07Somebody's got the lights on. If you've got your blues, kill them.
38:14Go on, go, go, go. Go, Crabbers. Go, Crabbers.
38:16Give him a chance to go up here.
38:18He's got a gap at near side if Trev's not cutting.
38:20Get across him, Trev. Don't let him get that.
38:22That's it, that's it, that's it.
38:24And you're just wary when you're walking up.
38:26Have they got something in their hand? Are they fiddling?
38:28Are they losing stuff? Are they swallowing things even?
38:30Or has he got something that, as soon as I open the door,
38:32he's going to hit me with?
38:33Let your keys out for this fella, if you will.
38:36Good man. Right, seatbelt out fella and jump this way
38:38and we'll explain what's going on.
38:41All right, come over here for us.
38:45There is a little bit of cannabis there,
38:47which was the first thing we found in the car.
38:49It's not the big hole they'd been led to believe from the tip-off.
38:55All we're going to do is give it a thorough search
38:57all the way through with all of us.
38:58Check these lads out.
38:59If there's nothing on them,
39:00then we've just got that one to deal with.
39:02But obviously the intelligence we got was that it was stuffed full.
39:05So we just want to make sure that's not the case.
39:08There's an awful lot of spaces in the car
39:09that you can put things where ordinarily you wouldn't look.
39:12But as soon as we start touching it,
39:14the panels start to drop off.
39:19James makes a discovery.
39:21Oh, caught cash in there, cabbers.
39:25Good call.
39:28Found it.
39:29I just took the a-step casing away.
39:31We've got a substantial amount of cash stashed.
39:35Try and get this side panel down here.
39:41Just jiggle it.
39:42Come on.
39:47We do spend quite a lot of time upside down in footwells
39:50putting your hands where they're not designed to go.
39:52There's a load more in there.
39:53Can you pull it if I get my fingers under here?
39:55But don't let go.
39:58Right, you can lift that
39:59and give me something to get my fingers under.
40:03You can see the effort we're going to.
40:04James is having to pull that up with both his hands.
40:07Well, I rather trustingly put my fingers in there.
40:13Yeah, it's obviously a spot where loads of stuff goes.
40:15So we've got the money.
40:16There's tons in it.
40:17I'd like to know why a ridiculous amount of money under there.
40:22Just wads of cash shoved in there
40:24by somebody who's clearly got far too much money
40:26and isn't caring about it, really.
40:28It's a lot of money.
40:29It is an awful lot of money.
40:30I mean, they're all...
40:31They're just from pulling them out of Wissadock County.
40:34There's wads of £300, £400 in lumps there.
40:37There's a couple of thousand pounds, I would suggest.
40:40Having a large amount of cash is no proof of wrongdoing,
40:43but the suspects are taken to the station for questioning.
40:46I've got a car and I'm sticking out of doors and shoved.
40:48Whether the cash is linked to criminal activity
40:50is now a matter for the Crown Prosecution Service to decide.
40:53While some tip-offs come in at a second's notice,
41:00others require a little more planning and patience.
41:05On the M62 in Wakefield is PC Matt Hemingway
41:09with A.D. Brown riding alongside.
41:11As a nature, police are nosy people
41:14and if we can't get to find the answers out, it annoys us.
41:17You know, we thrive on that.
41:19That's why we're here, we're investigators.
41:21They're heading east on the trail of a man
41:23suspected to be driving without a licence.
41:26We're off to Castleford.
41:28We're just going to leave the motorway network for a short time.
41:31We are going for the driver of a VW Polo who's got no licence.
41:379% of deaths on England and Wales' roads
41:40are caused by unlicensed drivers.
41:42We think he should be coming past a certain street in Castleford
41:46about half past 11, give or take, 10 minutes.
41:48So we're going to plot up at that location, waiting for him to come by.
41:52The cops are acting on information given in another anonymous tip-off.
41:57They've given us his name and date of birth and his registration number
42:02so we can narrow it down.
42:03The same gentleman had the same car taken off him about a month ago by a different officer.
42:10He was caught driving without supervision.
42:14He's gone and got his car back and he's doing exactly the same again.
42:18So we're out to get him.
42:20Matt and Adie find a spot just off the M62 motorway
42:24where they believe the driver will pass.
42:27We're looking for a blue VW Polo.
42:31It's quite distinctive because the headlights have eyelashes.
42:35I don't know why.
42:38We'll have to ask him if we manage to stop him.
42:41He might have pronounced eyelashes.
42:44Maybe.
42:45Maybe they've grown of their own accord.
42:48But even though it looks stupid, it does make it a lot easier to spot for us.
42:55Why would you put eyelashes on your car?
42:58He's making it far too easy for us.
43:00Basically, it was just a case of us putting our feet up
43:03and waiting for this car to come past and wink at us, I think.
43:07Waiting next to the motorway slip road
43:09frees up the cops to speculate on the motorists' mystery journeys.
43:13No, he's only in Castleford for two hours, so...
43:19No, not his.
43:21Some kind of drug intervention or something like that.
43:24Might be going to visit his grandparent.
43:27He might be volunteering at a local soup kitchen.
43:31It can be hard work.
43:32You've got to keep your concentration switched on,
43:34especially when you're looking for such a specific vehicle.
43:37I mean, all it takes is for it to be on the other side of a lorry
43:40as it drives past and you miss it.
43:42So, you can't afford to drift off.
43:45You've got to keep yourself switched on until you see it come by.
43:49Heyo.
43:51Yay!
43:52Is that it?
43:53Yeah.
43:54L plates on?
43:56Yeah.
43:5711.48.
43:59Bang on.
44:02He's being supervised, isn't he?
44:04Despite doing their homework, the cops weren't expecting L plates.
44:08He may be playing by the rules after all.
44:11We're going to wait until we can get to the right place and pull him over
44:14and just see if we can find out what the score is with his licence.
44:17He's displaying L plates today, so it may well be that he's legit.
44:21If he's driving as a learner under supervision, their morning stakeout could turn out to be a washout.
44:32Just passing out of job now.
44:34Possibly someone are breaking into a house.
44:38Which is just up here.
44:42Every 40 seconds there's a burglary in the UK.
44:45With Leeds and Bradford amongst the top burglary hotspots,
44:48even the motorway cops join their city colleagues to catch them in the act.
44:53They've been past the description of what they're doing.
44:55So, what they're wearing.
44:57I don't know if someone's actually following them or chasing them at the moment.
45:00One of the suspects has been spotted jumping into a black Volvo.
45:05With sketchy intel coming through, Bob uses his local knowledge to try and head them off.
45:12There's a lot going on.
45:13Not only that, I'm driving with my blue lights on.
45:15So, members of the public are sort of watching me and wondering where I'm going.
45:19And at that time I'm undecided.
45:21So, it's coming parallel down to us now.
45:27It's a black Volvo.
45:34There.
45:37As soon as I saw the car, two things run through my mind.
45:41The local lads will know this car and they'll just go for it.
45:44And then secondly, if they don't go for it, then they're going to starburst and run for it.
45:48Five-two, can I come in? Can I have units to Common Road? I've got the vehicle stopped over.
45:57Hiya, you alright?
45:58What?
45:59Ashley?
46:00As the driver got out, it's somebody I know.
46:03I've known for quite a while.
46:04And we've had us ups and downs.
46:06We've had us chases in that situation.
46:09Try and keep it calm.
46:11Apparently you've just picked up some young man.
46:12Just come and sit in my car in a minute.
46:14Quietly, I've just picked up him.
46:16A young lad who's just got in your car.
46:18Just want to have a quick chat with him.
46:19Just jump in there for a minute while we just have a chat.
46:24While Bob deals with the passenger, backup arrives.
46:28What's your name, mate?
46:29Dale Dickinson.
46:31Dale Dickinson.
46:32Yeah.
46:33Dale, just put these on for the moment.
46:34Just before we find out what's going on.
46:35Allegedly you've been running away from the police and got into this vehicle.
46:38Alright.
46:39You're very out of breath.
46:40You're very sweaty.
46:41So you've been doing something, haven't you?
46:425593.
46:43What's the description of the lad that's got in the Volvo?
46:46Just waiting to find out what's gone up at the scene, really.
46:49These lads have been seen to run away from something, get into this car.
46:52And as you've seen, we've stopped it.
46:53So it's just a case of finding out what's gone up there, really.
46:56They match your description of the use, anyway.
46:58Dale, what's running?
47:00Dale.
47:01Well, at this point in time, you're under arrest on suspicion of 10th burglary at an address
47:05to put on, so.
47:06Alright.
47:07But the cops have a problem.
47:08The only evidence against them is a tip-off about the car they were seen getting into.
47:15Back in Castleford, just off the M62, Adie and Matt are trailing a suspected unlicensed
47:22driver.
47:24Hey, Upcock.
47:25Would you point it later, guys?
47:27Up here, friends.
47:28You still can have a chat.
47:29The only information they have is from a tip-off that the driver might have a revoked licence.
47:34I'm glad you would have that, because it's razzing it now, innit?
47:37Yeah.
47:38Heyo, mate.
47:39Heyo.
47:40Yeah, not bad.
47:41This vehicle's got a remove report on it.
47:42Has it been removed before?
47:43Yeah.
47:44Oh, what for?
47:45Because I didn't have my outplates on.
47:46Oh, right.
47:47Have you got a licence and everything, then?
47:49I've got a provisional.
47:50I have my sister with me to take me to contact to see my kids.
47:55Ah, right.
47:56Is that where you've gone now?
47:57Yeah, that's where I've just gone.
47:58Oh, my sister.
47:59She's tech every day.
48:00Like, it's five days a week.
48:02He told us where he was going.
48:03It was killing us.
48:05Trying to work out why we were going to Castleford for two hours every morning.
48:09Have you got your provisional here or something?
48:11All right.
48:12It's a DVLA.
48:13I sent it off for me photo updating and the address changed me.
48:17Right.
48:18All it takes is for him to have a little piece of paper from the DVLA saying that he's allowed
48:22to drive and we've wasted a couple of hours there.
48:25What's your name, mate?
48:26Lee Wormall.
48:27You're provisional showing revoked refused.
48:30We're not there to argue the technicalities of it.
48:37We can only act upon the information we've got.
48:40And if the DVLA tell us he's not allowed to drive, then he's not allowed to drive.
48:45You can't literally drive until you've got your...
48:48I mean, you can't drive until you've got your licence in your hand.
48:51Until they've sent it back to you through post.
48:54What's with eyelashes?
48:56Oh, Missy's stuck them on.
48:59I'm dying to rip them off.
49:01Yeah, right.
49:02She did.
49:03You need to sort them eyelashes out.
49:05Yeah.
49:06They're awful.
49:07Unfortunately for the driver, it'll have to be a daily bus trip to see his kids.
49:11His car is being seized.
49:13All we need from you then, mate, is the key.
49:16Yeah, yeah.
49:17So, wait a minute then.
49:18So, Mike, so I can't start.
49:20I can't, when I get a car, but I can't.
49:22Not until you even have lessons, can I?
49:24No.
49:25No.
49:26Because even your provisional's been revoked, so it's as if you've never even got one.
49:30All right, mate.
49:31If there's only one out of the car, go get it.
49:32He's here, nearly.
49:33He's blocked.
49:34Got it.
49:35He'll let you out.
49:36He'll get root key.
49:37He'll get root key.
49:39Last year, West Yorkshire Police seized over 5,000 vehicles from drivers with no insurance
49:45or licences.
49:46Revoked.
49:47Even pretty cars get seized.
49:49It's nice when you put that little bit of extra work in, a little bit of extra digging
49:54on the information that you get, and it all comes off.
49:57If I'd known my licence had been revoked, I wouldn't have been driving a car to start
50:02with.
50:03You know, it's just silly, innit?
50:04You don't, you don't drive a bike with health plates on.
50:07If somebody excited, you know, it shows you an alert, yeah?
50:10If, er, if you know your licence had been revoked, it's just asking to be stopped.
50:16Yeah, he's having a hard time.
50:17It's, it's a struggle for him, but everybody's struggling.
50:21Everybody we take a car from has got a story as to why they're driving illegally.
50:26And he's just another one.
50:28At least we know where he goes for that two hours now.
50:30Between the time we see his kids.
50:34Yeah, mystery solved.
50:36Now I've lost my car, which is going to cost 150 quid to get bike money I ain't got.
50:43So I'm going to have to try and get a bit of help from the family.
50:47And then I'm going to have to leave it parked up until I've received whatever back from DVLA.
50:52See if I can drive or I can't.
50:55But it seems old habits die hard.
50:58Three or four weeks later, er, I was just coming out of Tesco's.
51:04And lo and behold, there's this little VW Polo winking at me.
51:09It was the eyelashes I initially saw.
51:11And guess who should come past?
51:13But Lee, driving the same car again, with his sister in the passenger seat,
51:18unfortunately still with his revoked licence.
51:21So I took it again.
51:23That's the reason why we run out of sympathy for people when we take the vehicles.
51:29Back in Bradford, PC Bob Hoyle has caught three men who he thinks may have burgled a nearby house.
51:38But his only information is from an anonymous tip-off.
51:41The detailed description matches the lad's held, but it's not clear what happened at the break-in.
51:48An old bin, a tool belt and an old drill by the looks of it at the moment.
51:54The baker's going to be seized because the driver's no insurance anyway, or no licence, and they'll be seized for the inquiries.
52:01With a trip to custody on the cards for further questioning, there's been a crucial development.
52:07Yeah, it's been confirmed that they've gone in.
52:10They've gone in?
52:11In a ways, we were thinking they were maybe trying to get in.
52:14It's now confirmed they've actually smashed something and gone into the property.
52:17So, yeah, confirmed burgling now.
52:20Or the house as well, and it's a dwelling.
52:22But there's still no proof these are the men responsible.
52:26Until new evidence comes to light.
52:29Incredibly, the criminals have been caught on camera by an eyewitness.
52:34The guy in the black T-shirt, that's the rear passenger in the Volvo that was stopped.
52:52He matches the description inasmuch as his T-shirt and his trousers, but he had put another top on,
52:58which I suspect would have been in the car.
53:00Plus, he was out of breath and still sweating.
53:03It would quite obviously have been running or doing something exercise-wise.
53:08So, where were we meant to have run off from then?
53:11Up here.
53:13Trying to dress round here.
53:16It's not the first time the man is facing a night locked up.
53:20I'm in there myself all night. I'll guarantee it.
53:24I'll put a tenner on it, actually.
53:26I'm in there myself all night.
53:29At least I get a bit of a kip, eh?
53:31Bit of a kip?
53:32Yeah.
53:33You might get something to eat.
53:35I'm like me.
53:36Jail food.
53:37Yeah.
53:38Jail food better than sell food.
53:40Jacketative pizzas or what?
53:42Yeah, that's what I mean.
53:43They've got to give you reasonable food, I suppose, haven't they?
53:45Omelettes.
53:46The game's up, if you like.
53:47They're in the back of the car, they're handcuffed.
53:49They're on the way to the station.
53:51And in some sad way, it's my opportunity to maybe try and see the area of the ways.
53:59He reckoned he knew how to deal with cars.
54:01Why don't you do something about it, then become a mechanic or something?
54:05Do some sort of college course or something like that?
54:08Try to deal with people, tell them what to do.
54:10But at some time in life, people are going to tell you what to do.
54:12Oh, yeah.
54:13I've tried to make him see that life could hold much more for him.
54:19Whether he listens to it, whether he does anything about it, I don't know.
54:23But I'd like to hope that I did get through to him a little bit.
54:28The repentant, over-the-limit driver, who crashed his car and was found hiding by Doug Lofthouse,
54:34received a 16-week prison sentence and was given a five-year driving ban.
54:41The man who took his dad's car off-road received a six-month ban, eight points,
54:46and a 12-month conditional discharge.
54:51The drunk and abusive mother received a four-month suspended prison sentence,
54:55a three-year disqualification and £430 in fines.
55:01There was no further action taken against the occupants of the black SEAT,
55:05and the £1,500 found under the gear stick was returned.
55:11The man arrested for burglary missed out on his jail food this time.
55:14He received a two-year community order and 150 hours unpaid work.
55:20The driver was disqualified for 12 months for having no licence or insurance.
55:26And the man stopped twice for driving without a provisional licence was fined £200 and received three penalty points.
55:33The four-year penalty points.
55:34The one-year penalty points.
55:35The one-year penalty points.
55:37The man was a pretty decent, broadcaster by a 20% of his coffee shop.
55:42The other one-year penalty points and the next one-year penalty points.
55:44The one-year penalty points.
55:45The man left with the Yankee attack.
55:47The man left with the French捕 timber,
55:48the American penalty points.
55:50The two-year penalty points.
