 Its so unfair, one law for them and another for us  |
Thing is, joe public chats and has conversations on their mobiles, copper is relaying what he is concentrating on, ie where he's driving, what the car he's after is doing etc.
Also, they're trained to do it, ie when to talk and when to drop mic and concentrate on driving safe.
Its like why they can speed aslong as they have the lights going etc
