Motorway Cops Catching Britain's Speeders S08E03 (21st July 2025)
Transcript
00:01What is he doing? Has he done that on purpose, do you reckon?
00:05To blind me? Because that was bright.
00:09On the outskirts of Ghoul,
00:11PCs Billy Stead and Nathan Saltmer have pulled over a flashy driver.
00:15What was the reason for blinding us?
00:17Because you were blinding me.
00:19We're going over bumps and stuff like that, you can't...
00:21Whatever, mate.
00:22If you think a car's blinding you, don't do the same in return.
00:25Because you're potentially going to cause a collision.
00:27Well, what I normally do is just flash them.
00:29If you did that to say, not an elderly person, but...
00:33I'm elderly.
00:34You're not elderly, you don't look older than 21.
00:37Oh, thank you.
00:40Got the charm, won him over.
00:42To be fair, I think if I'd have carried on, he'd have invited me around for Sunday dinner.
00:48Crash.
00:50Bang.
00:51Wallop.
00:53When it comes to bad driving, dash cam never lies.
00:58With Britain's worst offenders, racking up a whopping 3 million points.
01:06It's a bell to start.
01:08Decamping.
01:09Locking up the most dangerous people on our roads...
01:12...are the motorway cops.
01:14You've got better stuff to do, bro, than chase us, yeah?
01:16Do you not think you want to be catching some real criminals, are you mate?
01:19You are a real criminal, mate.
01:21We join Humberside Police...
01:24...as they fight to keep the roads safe...
01:26Crash, crash.
01:27...who's been through red, like your divvy.
01:29Oh, sorry.
01:30...and slam the brakes on deadly drivers.
01:33Open the door now!
01:34As soon as I went past, I was like, you're coming for me, yes?
01:38Do me own granny for speeding.
01:41You're looking at so many points atop of the Premier League.
01:44I've been very busy.
01:45Helping them in their battle with idiots behind the wheel...
01:49...is Dashcam.
01:50See if she's got a Dashcam in her car.
01:52It's vital evidence...
01:54...and proof...
01:56...that Britain's dumbest drivers...
01:58...are a law...
02:00...unto themselves.
02:02Good little stop, that. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
02:03Winner, chicken dinner.
02:10Tonight...
02:11Yeah, we've got runners.
02:13If you make any sort of movement, I will tase you, do you understand?
02:16A runaway driver puts the cops in the firing line.
02:19You know, I think you want to be catching some real criminals.
02:21You are a real criminal, mate.
02:22You wouldn't have said that, would you, Barbie?
02:28That's awful.
02:30The truth is loud and clear for a noisy boy racer.
02:32When you start that in the morning, you must annoy your neighbours.
02:35It annoys me, honestly.
02:36It annoys us as well.
02:41And a suspect displays some self-restraint.
02:44We've got some rabble fairy handcuffs.
02:46It's not the usual type.
02:49Can I just explain, there's a bag in there...
02:52We've already seen it.
02:53Yeah, sorry, mate.
03:02A Humbreside cop car can clock up 50,000 miles a year.
03:08So, at Melton Station near Hull, the pressure's on officers to keep their high-performance fleet in top nick.
03:16Let's get this nice and clean.
03:17The dream team are together.
03:20Scrub away.
03:22Scrub away.
03:24As Nathan's new to roads policing, Billy's keen to ensure he's not too wet behind the ears.
03:29You can get your chamois leather out after this and give it a good wax on, wax off.
03:36Do that on the head as well.
03:40Cleaning cars in police uniform.
03:42People would pay good money for this, you know.
03:44This is the stuff that dreams are made of.
03:46Let's do it.
04:00But this dream team was never destined to be together.
04:05How did you come to join him?
04:07The purple.
04:09The feds.
04:11Spoke with one of my friends who was a firearms officer.
04:13He persuaded me to apply for North Yorkshire.
04:14Did no one yet.
04:17Unfortunately failed my final interview.
04:20Transferred all my stuff across to Humberside.
04:23And subsequently passed.
04:26How did you get in the police building?
04:28Saw the police advertising.
04:30So I thought, there's worse jobs out there.
04:33Let's give it a go.
04:35That literally was my attitude.
04:37Every time I did a stage, I was like, that'll be the end of it.
04:40I'll fail that.
04:42And I passed, passed, passed.
04:43Got my final interview and got the job.
04:46And just literally said, I want to be in traffic.
04:48What do I do?
04:52And here we are today.
04:53Still in traffic.
04:55I wouldn't change it for the world.
04:56Observations please for a possible clone, which is being displayed on a white BMW just on eastbound A18.
05:14Well, let's go.
05:15We might see an AMPR activation on a potentially cloned motor vehicle.
05:28So we're getting hit at the moment really hard with burglaries out this way.
05:31What they're doing is putting a plate of a different vehicle of the same model, same make, just to disguise its identity.
05:41Hopefully we can, we can get behind it.
05:46Drivers on cloned plates rarely stop for the police.
05:50And the last thing Billy and Nathan want is a high speed chase at night.
05:54In Hull, a disqualified driver is refusing to stop for their fellow Humberside cops.
06:03Racing at a shocking 60 miles per hour over the speed limit.
06:08No other vehicles on the road.
06:11He recklessly runs red lights.
06:14Ramping up the danger, the suspect mounts a footpath.
06:18Yeah, vehicle is off road.
06:20And flies around a housing estate, wrecking his wheels as he goes.
06:25Vehicle does have a rear blowout.
06:27That's got heavy front head damage.
06:29The police lay a stinger to burst the other tyres.
06:32Unfair vehicle has been stuck.
06:34So the driver flees on foot but fails to get away.
06:39He admitted dangerous driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.
06:45He was jailed for nine months and banned from driving for two years and three months.
06:55We've had an AMBR activation on a potentially cloned motor vehicle.
07:00Hopefully we can get behind it.
07:01On the outskirts of Scunthorpe, Billy and Nathan are on the hunt for a driver of a white BMW on false plates.
07:11Fighting with the car there.
07:15We're probably five minutes out from where the hit is but it's been going eastbound so it's going generally towards Scunthorpe.
07:20I am going to bust it now because we'll just see what it does.
07:29Instead of going searching, we could just plotter.
07:34We'll wait for that to make its next move I think.
07:35We'll wait for that to make its next move I think.
07:44Is that a five series?
07:45That's it.
07:46Tango November 3-1.
07:47We've got a confirmed sighting generally towards Kiwi Bridge.
07:50We're in a marked Skoda.
07:51Stinger on board.
07:52Standby.
07:53It's got a right hand indication.
07:57I'm not sure if this is a dead end or not.
07:58Potentially going to get runners.
07:59Tangoeurs that are running off.
08:00Tango November 3-1.
08:01We've got a confirmed sighting generally towards Kiwi Bridge.
08:05We're in a marked Skoda.
08:06We're in a stinger on board.
08:09Standby.
08:10It's got a right hand indication.
08:13Standby, it's got a right-hand indication.
08:20I'm not sure if this is a dead end or not.
08:25Potentially going to get runners.
08:29Look at our runners here. Oh, no, it's coming out.
08:37Yeah, we've got runners.
08:43Ever found yourself at a crossroads in life?
08:53Unsure which way to go?
08:56When you lack direction?
08:59Reflect on the journey so far.
09:03And know it's never too late to get on a new path.
09:07We've gone right-right. Not sure if this is a dead end or not.
09:18Outside Scunthorpe, Billy and Nathan are chasing down a driver using false plates.
09:23Yeah, we've got runners.
09:32Please always want to tase them!
09:33Turn around. Get on your knees.
09:36Put your hands back on your head.
09:37If you make any sudden movements or any threats towards me, I will tase you. Do you understand?
09:42Subject secure.
09:44Turn November 3-1. Got one male discerned.
09:48Stand up.
09:49Yeah.
09:51What was that about?
09:52No comment.
09:56There's no one else in the car now.
09:59Are you going to close about, buddy?
10:02It's not very often I have to run.
10:05I'm exhausted.
10:06Why are you running?
10:08You might as well just be honest.
10:11I'm going to suspect stolen, not insured, etc.
10:14It's not stolen, mate.
10:15Is it not?
10:16What's your name?
10:18Just take me to custody, mate.
10:22I'd much rather not.
10:24If I can deal with it at the roadside, we'll deal with it at the roadside.
10:27You're coming after me like I'm some criminal, do you know what I mean?
10:29Well, you've ran away from us, mate, so how do we know?
10:32So for that case, just take me to custody, mate.
10:38What's the vehicle come back to?
10:44It's just on a cherished plate.
10:46It's a genuine vehicle. The genuine plates are in the back of the car.
10:49So why won't he give details?
10:55Are you the registry keeper of the car?
10:57Yeah.
10:58That is a private plate to you. The vehicle's not stolen, but you've not insured it.
11:02Is that right?
11:03Listen, I can't get any f***ing points again, man.
11:07How many points do you have already?
11:08I've got six.
11:09You've got six.
11:11If the vehicle's not insured, you're going to end up with six points anyway.
11:15F***ing soon.
11:17Absolutely baffled.
11:18I don't know what he's run off for.
11:20It's clearly just for an insurance offence, which could be dealt with if he could get the car back in the morning and that's that.
11:26Take drugs.
11:28No.
11:29What I'm going to do, mate, is I'm just going to request a sample of saliva on a drugway.
11:33You're not asking for much, are you?
11:38Rub your tongue around your mouth, stick your tongue out.
11:40It's a bit f***ing weird, that.
11:41Do you know the way he said it, bro? It's like he was enjoying it then, do you know what I mean?
11:44Stick your tongue right out.
11:46Right out?
11:47That's my tongue.
11:48Open your mouth wide.
11:49One, two, three, four.
11:51Go on, get in there, go on.
11:52Right.
11:53That's one.
11:54How much drugs have I been on tonight?
11:55Right, mate.
11:56On the left-hand side, there is a faint line there for cocaine.
11:57That can't be right.
11:58You're currently under arrest on Section 5, Veda Road Traffic Act, driving whilst over the prescribed limit of cocaine.
12:00Listen, look at me.
12:01Do you not think you want to be catching some real criminals with you, mate? Look at you.
12:02You are a real criminal, mate.
12:03You wouldn't have said that, would you?
12:04I don't know.
12:05I don't know.
12:06I don't know.
12:07I don't know.
12:08I don't know.
12:09I don't know.
12:10I don't know.
12:11I don't know.
12:12I don't know.
12:13I don't know.
12:14I don't know.
12:15I don't know.
12:16I don't know.
12:17I don't know.
12:18I don't know.
12:19Do you not think you want to be catching some real criminals with you, mate? Look at you.
12:21You are a real criminal, mate.
12:22You wouldn't have said that, would you, Baldi?
12:25It's the go-to of all the criminals, because we've got no hair, but never mind.
12:30Well-maintained, freshly shaved.
12:33Shall we get rolling?
12:34So?
12:35Can I get on the AUX?
12:36On the what?
12:37On the Bluetooth, AUX, whatever.
12:39What for?
12:40Oh, listen, do us a favour. Grab us my donut.
12:43I can't, mate.
12:44You can't eat, mate, unfortunately.
12:45Come on.
12:46I'm not going to lie.
12:47I think you lot.
12:48Yeah.
13:11Now that was a good result.
13:12It was a good result.
13:14There's no insurance, and cars off the road.
13:18Good get out and quick out the blocks.
13:20I've actually surprised myself there, in how quick I was after him.
13:24I think he'd have given Usain Bolt a run for his money there.
13:29Now on to the next one.
13:30It's a bit sunny today.
13:31I think I'll, er, I think I'll pop my glasses on.
13:32Oh, my God.
13:33Look at them.
13:34What in the Terminator are them.
13:35Thanks, mate.
13:36I reckon it's so you can disguise getting, er, getting some shut-eye today.
13:51It's judgement day for PC Luke Thundercliff.
13:53Come on, I killed the car.
13:54Come on, let's get in the car.
13:56And hoping it won't be, hasta la vista, baby.
14:00Had some cotton fresh to the car today.
14:02It's PC Joe Gorman.
14:04Luke said he had a curry last night.
14:06There's no way I'm sitting 12 hours in a car with Luke after a curry.
14:17Oh, I've got cotton fresh all over the centre console.
14:28I'm in the driver's seat.
14:30What more could you wish for?
14:32You can be my passenger princess today.
14:34Passenger princess?
14:35Yeah.
14:36First rule of passenger princess.
14:38I assume it's on the radio station now.
14:40If I tell you to get out of the car, you get out of the car.
14:43With them glasses on, I might be telling you to get out of the car more often than not.
14:51What are you thinking about today? What we're going to get?
14:53Motorway car.

15:10It shouldn't be on the road like that.
15:11It's quite badly damaged, that.
15:12The bonnet's just smashed in, I think, a bit, on the front.
15:13It looks like the front offside headlights are damaged, isn't it?
15:14Yeah.
15:15It just doesn't sit right, to be honest.
15:16I'll tell you what I said.

27:08found if you follow my colleague here he'll put you in the back of there cheers buddy thank you
27:24i think i got the better end of the job on that one yeah

27:56absolutely the mix taken out of me there absolutely nothing wrong with that no classic shoe yeah
28:12i've just done all that why do you have to mess about with it you just do the driving
28:21i'll look after you in the temperature how's that when i'm 16. if you want to learn it'd be too loud
28:28is that what it does yeah stop listening about
28:30in hull luke's in the driving seat and it's joe's turn to be the passenger princess you've got two
28:38jobs paying to every vehicle and look after you and sell the music out
28:45a bit of land and i'll run shanaya twin
28:47the ea beautiful but there's a noise on the road that don't impress luke much
29:01like that yeah
29:09the the red fiesta in front has got particularly loud exhaust
29:12i don't know what it's done to make it sound that bad
29:32just have a chat about your manner of driving and your car that's all
29:34sounds awfully loud just give it a quick rev
29:36that's awful i don't know that's awful you know what they don't even on the motorway it's so
29:45you can hear the air inside and it's like
29:49surprised you wouldn't hear that in your sleep i reckon if you've been driving around
29:52all day just come and take a seat at the back of our car
29:55your car is very very loud yeah and you had an open stretch of road and you absolutely tanked it
30:11i would consider that to be an anti-social manner of driving you're causing a nuisance with your
30:16vehicle it's because of the sound of it because of the noise i've been seen for a couple of weeks
30:20to even my missus now it's when you sat down in the morning you must annoy your neighbors it annoys me
30:25honest that annoys us as well i like that it sounded like that when i bought it it shouldn't
30:35have passed an mrt being that loud oh really does it not it's too loud okay it says on your mrt history
30:40in july yeah it says on the other one was too noisy um yeah i i understand it said that but that was sort
30:45of like on the notes at the bottom was it i don't think it was repair immediately major defects
30:49yeah which is what it would fail on and also the exhaust catalytic converter missing where one
30:54was fitted as standard so i presume somebody's removed it i've not done no work to the car
30:59myself i've not done nothing to it right okay there are the wheels looks like he's hit every
31:05cab in hull on these wheels as you can see it's scratched all the way around them and bending on
31:09the outside he's just very lucky he's not through to carbs
31:12is there a curve you've not missed i didn't know the alloys the aren't they i know i bought it when
31:20the alloys really bad i'm going to issue you today with what we call a section 59 warning okay which
31:28basically means you've been warned about driving and using your vehicle in a manner that's likely to
31:32cause nuisance right right yeah if you get another one within 12 months your car can get seized on the
31:37spot yeah and then you won't have a car yeah yeah i understand that so my colleague does some checks
31:44on your insurance yeah uh so we've got it stopped due to his manner of driving however what i want to
31:50make sure is that he's declared his modifications to his insurance so he's got aftermarket alloy wheels
31:56on tinted front headlights with eyebrow covers on windscreen motif on the front of it it's got some
32:03writing on the windscreen as well mirror covers he's then got wind deflected he's got a rear spoiler
32:10and it also appears like he's got some sort of skirting on the bottom of the back of the car that's
32:15not factory as well and the rear lights are also tinted uh and he's also got a twin exhaust it's not
32:21got a cat faded anymore so we'll see if they'll come back and confirm cover or not
32:26i don't think there's a modification this car hasn't got
32:37they're not confirming cover for the stop and it will be cancelled immediately so there's no cover
32:43so basically they're not confirming cover because all the modifications on the vehicle right so ultimately
32:48they think you're just ensuring a standard ford fiesta with nothing done to it yeah it's a little bit
32:53different so the vehicle's going to get seized because there's no way you're going to get insurance
32:59now you've got a policy cancelled so you've dealt with for a ticket for no insurance as well now
33:23he took quite a hit really didn't he he lost his car a few hundred pounds worth of fines all because
33:31he decided to drive like an idiot with a very very loud exhaust it's very unnecessary the thing is
33:38we we do have an issue with people modifying the cars obviously don't tell their insurances because
33:44they don't want to pay the extra fees somebody like that was to hit your personal car chances are
33:49you'd be claiming from an uninsured driver which is not fair at all is it the only thing i've modified
33:57my car with is probably two car seats it's quite a good modification because two kids in the back
34:04makes you go faster because you want to get home quicker to get them out the car to get some peace and
34:08quiet
34:27just booking out a taser you never know we're going to stop at melton station on the north bank of the
34:33humber pc matt chewton hasn't just got criminals in his sights well good on camera don't i right
34:42let's go chucking it down done my hair but i don't know how long yeah how long it's going to last in

34:54oh look at that so i don't even have to get wet getting out to the car lovely
35:08tonight we're on a 7 p.m to 7 a.m shift on a nice rainy night the rain demotivates me slightly
35:26because i'm a fair weather copper i like to do my policing in nice weather however i'm prepared for
35:35what happens hopefully we'll get a good job i'm covering the north bank we're going to be going
35:46across to uh ghoul and the west side of the county i do prefer the north it's just nicer up here looks
35:53better it smells better and i kind of know i'm going a bit better see if we can try and catch some bad guys

36:39bmw pursuit management trained with stinger that's received
36:47so there's been a a burglary um where three vehicles have been taken from an address
36:53all three vehicles have just hit say one of our cameras
36:58so i'm just going to try and get into the area and cut them off
37:01so they get other resources into the area and look at tactical options we get to a stop
37:13three vehicles have been found within a couple of streets of each other packed up
37:40the offenders are on foot somewhere trying to make their escape
37:48so any vehicles moving now beware of stopping in case someone's going to pit them out
37:59some areas around here where vehicles have previously been found so
38:03there's a possibility that they could head this way it's just a waiting game now
38:17that's a navara
38:30there's two stolen navaras i've been involved in burglars it was active a few times last night
38:35just going to follow in for a little bit obviously didn't realize where a police guy
38:38i'm just going to see uh what he does
38:44that one's going for it
38:50time november three three can i come in i've potentially got a vehicle failing to stop just
38:54unnerved to two vehicles
38:57speed currently 105 miles an hour we are on the a18
39:01i think it is a black nissan navara can have any patrols uh pmt to me please and then pass
39:09so which bad habits on the roads
39:24drive you crazy do impatient beepers grind your gears even look or is it tailgaters that send you
39:34around the bend speeders send plenty of pulses racing but it's q jumpers that leave most of us seeing red
39:47time november three three can i come in uh potentially got a vehicle failing to stop
39:51in sconthorpe a gang of car thieves is on the run matt thinks he has the getaway driver in his sights
39:58i think it is a black nissan navara can i have any patrols uh pmt to me please and then pass
40:18additional units are unknown to your location
40:21speed is currently 100 miles an hour worst conditions of wet it is a light rain at the moment
40:30the vehicle is swerving between lanes one and two
40:32tanker sierra three seven all tactics authorized
40:36and one mile from the a161 on the a18 speed 110 miles an hour no over traffic so medium risk still
40:46safe to continue please uh i've been trying to get in from here just taking a stop at
40:55time november three three is taking the exit standby it's going to come to a potentially a dead end
41:01standby for runners i can see the vehicle in the distance we're going to have runners on the vehicle
41:15come get the dog to me please the engine's still running nobody with it
41:22just trying to secure the vehicle somebody
41:26just want to push past and see if you can go the road either side
41:31yeah 33 i'm going to uh continue down the road if you can come to the vehicle and then section the bushes
41:38i think there's a road so if you go up to this roundabout and then immediate left if you can get
41:51somewhere over that side
41:52so i'm going to remember three three the drone is in the air that's received
42:03three zero preparation i've checked
42:0518 18 all the way up to the negative
42:08they must be in there somewhere it's obviously quite an open space here so we've got the dog
42:12the tendon behind us
42:17that's about three one what pulling me like a train in the shrubbery in the trees that runs alongside
42:22the a18 so this might not be a bad guess yeah 33 it's going to go back to the vehicle
42:34it looks like we've got um a safe an off road bike looks like some power tools crowbar items
42:41potentially use to commit your fences in the back of the uh truck
42:45just look inside the vehicle at the rear seats we've got a drill a couple of crowbars we've got
42:51number plates which i believe come back to the original vehicle which is now confirmed this vehicle is
42:56stolen
42:59it's hanging out november 33
43:00yeah november 33 go ahead
43:02there's been any further updates from the dog officers
43:04hotel delta 3-1 the update
43:07nothing but there's not a lot of vegetation to go on or anything like that
43:11oh
43:14bloody hell
43:15it was shorting isn't it
43:25Gutted when they get away.
43:43So tonight we've had four of stolen motor vehicles all recovered, all in the space of an hour or two.
43:49So it's not a bad night's work.
43:51We've all come together, traffic, dogs, the drone.
43:55Because we all worked together, we've very nearly got a brilliant result.
43:59We'll just have to settle with a very good result of getting stolen cars back and various stolen items from the back of the car back to the rightful owners.
44:09The old copper's nose never lets me down.
44:12I'd say it's coffee time now.
44:14I like the McDonald's coffee.
44:16It is me all over, cheap and cheerful.
