Tony Wilson 4 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Saw this a few days ago and thought i'd share. There's several videos of them causing a nuisance around central London. Thoughts? Edited July 13, 2015 by Tony Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AA101 626 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I know who the vehicle owner is - what sort of nuisance are you talking about though? Aside from construction and use offences I wasn't aware of any issues relating to him and his staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedster + 1,307 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Tony what questions have you got about the video? Seeing as you have put this in the law section, what concerns have you got about the cars etc.. Edited July 13, 2015 by Fedster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Team Sir Penguin 648 Posted July 13, 2015 Admin Team Share Posted July 13, 2015 What's the necessity for all the security? That's the only thought I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus 585 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 That's one hell of a messy escort. Running red lights as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Wilson 4 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Maybe posted in the wrong area. Was wondering what your general thoughts were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLS 72 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Didn't look very professional to me if it was supposed to be some kind of advert for his services (didn't have audio turned on by the way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus 585 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Didn't look very professional to me if it was supposed to be some kind of advert for his services (didn't have audio turned on by the way) He was a bystander filming the private motorcade of a billionaire I've never heard of. The billionaire was driving the ferrari I think. All the rolls were his 'escort' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Team Sir Penguin 648 Posted July 13, 2015 Admin Team Share Posted July 13, 2015 does he need that amount of protection out of vanity or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prolixia 704 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 There were plenty of offences in the video: contruction and use, window tinting, jumping the red light, and probably something on the inconsiderate-dangerous driving spectrum at the end when one of the cars that went through the red light deliberately cut up oncoming traffic to remain with the convoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnie 2,084 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 And it was a VERY poor attempt at a security escort at that. Their own drivers didn't even seem to know what order they were supposed be going in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plainmad + 33 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 The traffic officer in me wish's I'd been there. The amount of offences I reckon I could go through a whole ticket pad! I'd be interested to see if they would stop and claim they couldn't under some pretense of security. Could you also report the employer for summons for permitting (and probably causing) the vehs to be driven with all those offences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AA101 626 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 If you're a Met traffic officer PM me and I'd be happy to assist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
