Tonight. Nothing. Smell like vodka. A van full of vodka. Are is it. | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
bottles look cloudy. As the Motorway Cops mount an operation | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
against the cheats. Who are you. Who do you think I am? And the | :00:28. | :00:36. | |
chancers. I know it is stupid. I shouldn't do it. They caught you | :00:36. | :00:43. | |
last year. What is your name. name you have given me has no | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
driving licence. You take the risk and at those times you never know | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
where we are and we could be in the weirdest place at the weirdest time | :00:53. | :01:03. | |
:01:03. | :01:16. | ||
that. Would be the right time for us and the wrong time for you. | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
drivers stick to the rules. But there are other s who chance their | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
arm committing offences and hoping they will never get caught. It is | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
up to to Motorway Cops to look out for those who take risks. When | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
you're on patrol, you're always looking for things, to generate | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
your own workload. And that is how we operate. We will go for what we | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
think will get us the best result and take a dangerous driver off the | :01:46. | :01:56. | |
:01:56. | :02:02. | ||
road. Motorway copse rich and Angus are following a -- Motorway Cops | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
Richard and Angus are following week. If we hadn't seen it, we | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
would haven't believed I. The chase was on. But it wasn't difficult. | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
They have seen some ropey means of transport, but this takes the | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
biscuit. It is a barrel. With the side. Supported by a gallon drum. | :02:24. | :02:30. | |
And more astonishing is what is inside. The trailer is a mobile | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
kennel. We thought this is a guy having a laugh. But they're | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
concerns this could be a death trap. There noise mud guards. I don't | :02:42. | :02:51. | |
know if there is indicators. We shall find out. See if he has any | :02:51. | :02:59. | |
brake lights. Not much of anything. No indicators. Now it has been | :02:59. | :03:07. | |
stopped the police have another concern. Oh it's a bloody | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
Rottweiler. Over to you! When it comes to unspeblgting - inspecting | :03:15. | :03:22. | |
vehicles, PC Nairn is a Rottweiler himself. We don't know whether it | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
is amusing or seriously dangerous. Did you make that yourself? Yes. | :03:27. | :03:34. | |
Where is the brake light? suspect working too well. Where is | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
the indicators? You can can see them. I can see themment but | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
they're no' flashing. The flashing thing has stopped work. The flashy | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
thing? You don't have any red reflective material. Where is the | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
mud guards? I didn't have any. has to have mud guards. You can't | :03:55. | :04:03. | |
have the wheels exposed. We don't have any electrics apart from that. | :04:03. | :04:12. | |
Usually, but not today. Do these work? This broke the other night. | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
Everything seemed to be just happening today and he was going to | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
get them fixed. Or it has just broken. Does that one work? That | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
shorted out when it stopped. It is crazy to go on to the motorway with | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
a thing like that, which to anybody wouldn't seem safe to ride in a | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
playing field, let alone on a highway. Some of it is in order. | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
Where does the cigarette lighter go to. GPS. Is was the only thing that | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
was modern and work. Have a seat in the car now. What does the dog have, | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
if it wants to lie down? There is plenty of room.Less Not wearing a | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
crash helmet. There was no protection around the whole for -- | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
hole for dog, in case is fell. If the barrel was to overturn, if he | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
was to avoid some traffic, the dog could have been seriously injured. | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
It is no' the dog's fault. He didn't ask to be there. I felt | :05:21. | :05:29. | |
sorry for him being stuck in a an oil drum. Is he friendly? Yes, ve | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
very. You should have goggles. Apart from sending off to America | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
for something there is nothing available. He decides to escort | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
them to the nearest services. But it is to become clear how | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
vulnerable they are. As he started to move, because of the fact he had | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
no mirrors or indicators, he was pulling on to the inside lane then | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
a truck come back and we looked at him and thought, there will be | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
something happen. This guy will get wiped out in front of us. There is | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
no way we can turn a blind eye to this. He is taking too many chances. | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
It would be wrong to let him continue any further. For his | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
safety and the dog's. The dog's more than anything else. At the | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
services the biker will find out what punishment PC Nairn will dish | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
out. It looks like Wallace and Gromit. You could put that in a | :06:31. | :06:41. | |
:06:41. | :06:56. | ||
In the early hours the motorways are less busy. But while others | :06:56. | :07:05. | |
sleep, there are plenty of chancers about keeping the cops on the go. | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
PC Jess Rojek and Alan Colman are approaching the end of their shift. | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
You're looking forward to getting to your bed. It is 7 and you have | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
to be aware something could happen and you have to deal with that. | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
car in front is putting paid to their thoughts of bed. It was the | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
ends of the night shift and I saw this week and it was literally text | :07:30. | :07:39. | |
:07:40. | :07:42. | ||
book, this is a drink driver. to have a chat with him. There are | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
people on the road who commit offences to try look to commit | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
offences, or risk it, when they think the police are probably at | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
their busiest or won't be about and probably 6am they think that we're | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
all tied up with paperwork, or going home. Hello mate. Stopped you | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
because you were wandering. tired. Have you had a drink? | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
twopbt a friend's party. You have had a drink. -- went to a friend's | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
party. Have a seat in the car for a second. He has had a drink this | :08:21. | :08:31. | |
:08:31. | :08:31. | ||
bloke. I could see he is stragering and it is obvious that she has had | :08:31. | :08:41. | |
:08:41. | :08:44. | ||
a drink. The question is how much has he mad? Morning. How are you? | :08:44. | :08:54. | |
:08:54. | :08:57. | ||
How much have you had to drink stkph? A couple? Right. I now how | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
someone acts when they have, when they're over the drink drive limit | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
and how it smells on their breath and how their eyes are glazed and | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
you just know. I require you to provide me with a spokesman of | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
breath into the breath test device. Are you willing to provide that? | :09:19. | :09:29. | |
:09:29. | :09:32. | ||
Yes. Long blow. Keep going. Keep going. You did it. You have failed, | :09:32. | :09:40. | |
it is 56 and the legal limit is 35. That is a fair way above. This man | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
in particular should know better. What do you do? I'm a staff nurse. | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
The job he does, he's I'm sure he has dealt with a number of patients | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
and victims of serious road collisions, which could have been | :09:58. | :10:06. | |
caused by drink drivers. So he's seen the other end of it. One of | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
the consequences this time is a trip to the police station for a | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
further breath test and until he gets there, he won't be allowed to | :10:14. | :10:24. | |
:10:24. | :10:25. | ||
use his phone. Switch that phone off for us? No, switch your phone | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
off. I need to let my girlfriend know. You can't have contact with | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
anyone. You haven't arrested me. Yes we have. Give me the phone. | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
You're not contacting anyone. You're under arrest. Listen... | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
can co-that -- do that from the police station. We will take him to | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
station and put him on a more accurate machine that will tell us | :10:49. | :10:56. | |
what he has got. He can hardly stand up. He nearly tripped up over | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
there. A danger on the road. People like that shouldn't be on the road. | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
And what is more shocking than anything, he is a nurse. You take | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
the risk and you have a Rhys thank we won't find you. On this occasion, | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
we did. So at those times you never know where we're. We could be in | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
the weirdest place at the weirdest time, which will be the right time | :11:20. | :11:28. | |
for us and the wrong time for you. While the drink driver is taken to | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
the police station, 15 miles south the biker who risked life and lum | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
by taking his mobile kennel is being dealt with. I need to give | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
you a ticket for this. And then I have done my bit. Can you get on | :11:45. | :11:52. | |
the phone and start jacking up recovery. I would prefer to do it | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
inside. And then an oil leak and the rider's spur of the moment | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
repair. That sprung up before you stopped me. That is stopping it | :12:02. | :12:10. | |
spurting on your leg. To keep it off me skin. Less trying to protect | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
his leg from getting burnt and wraps a towel around the cylinder | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
led. If you're riding that, it is not worth taking its on the road. | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
But the dangerous state of the bike has not hit home yet. Just a few | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
teething problems. With the engine. And the lights. Yes. And the oil | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
leak and stuff. Oh well. Braver man than me. But this knight of the | :12:39. | :12:47. | |
road is going no further. What is lapping if you hand your licence in, | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
-- happening is if you hand the licence in you will get points. It | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
has not got a great deal going for it. You're caught over a barrel! | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
Please don't think about going back on the roads. We have cameras and | :13:02. | :13:10. | |
it makes our job easier, but also busier. PC Nairn isn't known for | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
his leniency. We could have thrown the book at Lumb. He could have | :13:14. | :13:21. | |
gone to court and been given a huge fine. But you have got to cut him | :13:21. | :13:29. | |
some slack. We have disChris. His - - discretion. How old is she? | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
She is a lovely dog. How often has she travelled in it. Once or twice | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
a week. In Wales. Where they don't see you. Tonight somebody's phoned | :13:41. | :13:48. | |
it n we can't turn a blind eye. It is still an offence. OK mate. | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
care. The biker knows he has been give an break. I was getting often | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
good. I wasn't really aware it was dangerous. I knew the lights could | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
have been better. Rather than actually dangerous. There are | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
people who take chances. They take chances with the condition of the | :14:08. | :14:15. | |
vehicle or the driving or their no insurance or bald tyres and think | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
they have got away with it today. But we're always out there looking | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
for them. As one man and his dog park up to wait for the recovery | :14:26. | :14:32. | |
truck, 20 miles away in Birmingham the medic in trouble for drinking | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
and driving is in custody. But because of his row fegs, an | :14:37. | :14:46. | |
unpleasant surprise is in surprise. What do you do? A manager. Because | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
you informed me that you a registered nurse, I have to it will | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
you that this is a notifiable occupation and the police may have | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
to float if I your employer of your detention. -- notify your aemployer | :15:02. | :15:09. | |
of the detention. A ban is looming and his job may be on the line. | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
is somebody in a position of trust as a member of the napers you're | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
one of those people and therefore what would -- NHS, you're one of | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
those people and if you're arrested we will inform your employer that | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
you have been arrested and what the offence it. Sorry it doesn't make | :15:28. | :15:38. | |
:15:38. | :15:52. | ||
good entertainment. I'm not as A I couldn't live with myself if I | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
took someone's life because I couldn't be bothered to get a taxi | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
home or make alternative arrangements. Will legal limit is | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
there to five. Anything over that you're in trouble. Although he blew | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
56 on the roadside, the result of the more accurate breath-test is | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
the one that is used in court. He is still more than 40% over the | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
limit. He has the option of one more test. Because you have caught | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
between 40 and 50, you have an option, if you wish to do so, to | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
have it replaced by a specimen of blood. It is another chance to get | :16:29. | :16:37. | |
off, but a slim one. You want to give a specimen of blood? OK. | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
blood alcohol level and the body goes down by seven points an hour, | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
but this extra test usually comes up positive as well. My experience | :16:46. | :16:52. | |
of the last few drink-drivers, they have all come back were the limit | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
anyway. So maybe it is a bit of a waste of time, doing it. It is a | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
second chance that is wasted when you could just charge them and send | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
them to court anyway. Each blood test costs around �80 and is paid | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
for by the police. The option to go to blood was introduced when | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
breathalysers were not as accurate as they are today. A recent | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
government report has proposed that these blood tests are abolished. It | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
will be at least three hours before he is sober and free to go, and up | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
to six weeks before he knows there is also of his blood test. If you | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
can pop your shoes off, and leave them outside. It has been an extra | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
long stretch of duty, and PC Jess Rojek is ready for some sleep. But | :17:42. | :17:48. | |
has been the best part of two hours, on the Endeavour 12 were shut, saw | :17:48. | :17:57. | |
14 hour shift. The day shift cops have already turned out. At their | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
base in Perry Barr, in Birmingham, they are on a special operation | :18:01. | :18:08. | |
targeting white vans. How are you? At issue unlucky day today. We're | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
doing an operation looking at all types of transit vans, making sure | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
they are roadworthy and not running on a legal duel, making sure | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
drivers are all legitimate. Con for it a popular belief we do not have | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
it in for white vans. People seem to believe we do, but what we have | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
found is that a lot of things come to light from these fans simply | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
because of the volume of them and what they do. The cops have joined | :18:34. | :18:43. | |
forces with Customs and Excise and VOSA. We just want to make sure | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
that because roadworthy. It is estimated them up over 2.5 million | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
white bands in Britain. The Motorway Cops find that many of | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
them should not be on the road, were still there are drivers taking | :18:55. | :19:02. | |
the chance of not getting caught. was a disqualified driver for years | :19:02. | :19:08. | |
ago but I have not applied back on my licence yet. I was sure you more | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
respect than that. No you what! A thanks for your time. So UN bans | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
are fine, but not everyone has been allowed to go. -- some bans are | :19:20. | :19:30. | |
:19:30. | :19:32. | ||
fine. -- vans. The Czech point is right next to the M6, very handy | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
for the cops to shepherd likely- looking vase. PCs stayed gaunt and | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
Kevin Whitehouse have spotted one. Not only has the van seen better | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
days, they think it is overloaded. We can see from the way that the | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
vehicle was lying on the road. We will have a look at the Springs. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
the driver and a van get a going over, back at the site. Although | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
their initial concern was the wake of the load, the customs officer | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
has found another problem. You've got no people work for this? | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
Nothing? No receipt from when you bought it? Have you just bought it? | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
The problem is in sight. 600 bottles of lager hall. To palace of | :20:18. | :20:28. | |
:20:28. | :20:33. | ||
vodka. -- of alcohol. Two palettes of Booker. -- vodka. We're just | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
making sure that he can produce receipts, and that duty has been | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
paid. If he has bought the vodka from a genuine supplier, he should | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
have some documents with him. have got no paperwork? We have to | :20:47. | :20:57. | |
:20:57. | :20:59. | ||
prove to us. For every 1.5 bottle of -- 1.5 litre of vodka sold the | :20:59. | :21:06. | |
government takes one per and 65 of duty. But other vodka is produced | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
which has passed off as genuine without any duty being paid, and it | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
is estimated the garment loses �1 billion per year as a result. -- | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
the Government. The had no people work for it. And you're talking | :21:21. | :21:27. | |
potentially thousands of pounds of stock that he could not account for. | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
When we spoke to him, he said he had bought it from a chap off the | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
back of a lorry in a field. label suggests it is a legitimate | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
brand, but an inspection increases the suspicion that it is fake what | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
can make to look genuine. The vodka is cloudy. It is not a sterile | :21:50. | :22:00. | |
:22:00. | :22:08. | ||
So and that by looking at that, it looked cloudy. Normal walker is not | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
cloudy, not any blocker that I have had in the past, not that I drink | :22:13. | :22:20. | |
much of it. But it is not clear, it is not bought the, what else is it? | :22:20. | :22:27. | |
-- not vodka. While they try to establish whether the board catch | :22:27. | :22:34. | |
his stake, the white van is rounded. Three miles away, two other PCs are | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
looking for other drivers a chance their arm. Because they no these | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
people are the ones who often have more to hide. We are pig believers | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
in that if you stop someone for alighting defect, somebody not | :22:48. | :22:55. | |
wearing their belt, it will lead to a much bigger things. Even the | :22:55. | :23:04. | |

driver in the green card has failed to put his seatbelt on. -- the | :23:09. | :23:19. | |
:23:19. | :23:22. | ||
green car. What a plonker. Hello, sir, we are speaking to you about | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
why you are not wearing your seatbelt. Whilst the car the Stuart | :23:27. | :23:37. | |
:23:37. | :23:40. | ||
Broad effects, information on it is The owner is a woman. Is it your | :23:40. | :23:49. | |
own car? It is my sisters, or my brother and more. Do you have any | :23:49. | :23:55. | |
exemption for not wearing a seatbelt? No, sir. So, OK, today, | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
you going to receive a fixed penalty for the offence. You say | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
that it is not your car. Have you got a car, yourself? He yes, I do. | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
What sort of insurance to you have? Fully comprehensive. Within a | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
minute of a person giving you details you know if they have been | :24:19. | :24:26. | |
genuine or not. As a policeman, you get a feeling for it. Do you have | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
your driving licence with you? I don't. And this man, straight | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
away, sending out all the wrong signals. Do you have any other | :24:37. | :24:45. | |
identification? A bank card or anything? Nothing. Most people have | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
Documentation, a wallet or something similar. If you have not | :24:49. | :24:59. | |
:24:59. | :25:05. | ||
got one, that arouses my suspicions. What is your name? Shazan. My | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
licence is fully comprehensive. Motorway Cops are pretty sure that | :25:09. | :25:17. | |
he is lying. The have got cheques that we can make in a car that he | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
could not do years ago. You start building up a history of somebody | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
and quite often walked they are telling you does not match that. | :25:27. | :25:34. | |
Whose car is it? It is his brothers. It is the family cars. That is | :25:34. | :25:44. | |
:25:44. | :26:01. | ||
either my sister is register of, or it is going to be BLEEP. What is | :26:01. | :26:11. | |
:26:11. | :26:22. | ||
the registration number of your car? M14 HMS. I always see it as | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
quite a challenge. I enjoy these type of stocks because you know | :26:26. | :26:34. | |
there is something now. In a -- any points on your licence? I have got | :26:34. | :26:44. | |
:26:44. | :26:45. | ||
nothing. Are you sure about that? How old is that? You must remember | :26:45. | :26:52. | |
getting points on your licence. Honestly, I could not. On my | :26:52. | :27:00. | |
insurance I have no points. You are telling us the truth? Yes, man. | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
This issue opportunity to tell us the correct details. If we take you | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
to the station and you have given us the wrong details you are in | :27:08. | :27:17. | |
trouble. I am being 100% genuine. You must have some idea. I don't | :27:17. | :27:25. | |
have nothing on me, I don't even have any cash on me. Normally, when | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
people sit in the car, with and a couple of minutes we can confirm | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
who they are without any doubt. You have started to put some doubt in | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
our minds about your identity. Whilst they try to find out if he | :27:39. | :27:46. | |
is who he says he is, at the Motorway Cops base, the operation | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
targeting dodgy white vans is still going on. The officers are | :27:50. | :27:58. | |
continuing to examine the vodka they suspect his fate. Can we crack | :27:58. | :28:05. | |
open the bottles and smell it? something they normally do on duty. | :28:05. | :28:13. | |
In smells salty. We thought there was something not quite right. | :28:13. | :28:19. | |
does not smell of anything, does it? It smells more like Bacardi. | :28:19. | :28:25. | |
What can does not smell. The label says that duty has been paid, but | :28:25. | :28:29. | |
the customs man is not convinced and is getting specialist help from | :28:29. | :28:37. | |
headquarters. They are saying that, with this sticker, it is not a | :28:37. | :28:43. | |
sticker on top of it. It looks as if it is part of the label, to make | :28:43. | :28:51. | |
it look legitimate. They cannot be 100% sure if the vodka is | :28:51. | :28:55. | |
legitimate without a proper test, but the label seems forged, meaning | :28:55. | :29:05. | |
:29:05. | :29:08. | ||
that duty has never been paid. It It is bad news for white van man. | :29:08. | :29:18. | |
:29:18. | :29:23. | ||
Are they OK? No I'm going to detain the van and the alcohol. Is Is it | :29:23. | :29:27. | |
real. You don't know They maybe doubts about the vodka. But the | :29:27. | :29:34. | |
cops have found something about the drive. He has got a previous in | :29:34. | :29:40. | |
2002 for offering goods under-the- counter fit act. The customs office | :29:40. | :29:50. | |
is on the phone Tothing - totting up the amount of duty payable if it | :29:50. | :30:00. | |
:30:00. | :30:06. | ||
was legitimate. It is �8,000 in duty. �8,02. He has paid �1,300 for | :30:06. | :30:12. | |
lot. How much for a bottle. Tener. How many was there? Frpbgs 600. You | :30:12. | :30:19. | |
would have made a four grand profit. It would have been a good Christmas. | :30:19. | :30:24. | |
You would kill someone with that. He didn't bat an eye lid that we | :30:24. | :30:29. | |
had seized the product off him. He must have plenty of other things on | :30:29. | :30:34. | |
the go as well. You don't seem that fussed. Well you know, things come | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
and go. You have to take it easy. He is philosophical and it seeps | :30:39. | :30:45. | |
you win some and you lose -- seems you win some and lose some. | :30:45. | :30:49. | |
minute he was thinking about the amount he would make and then he is | :30:49. | :30:55. | |
in our yard we're caling over the van and kus -- crawling over the | :30:55. | :31:00. | |
van and customs decide that is ours now. Four miles away the driver who | :31:00. | :31:08. | |
has been stopped is still being questioned about his identity. They | :31:08. | :31:11. | |
don't believe he is who he say he is. The information I have had over | :31:11. | :31:16. | |
the air, from what I know about your driving licence you're not | :31:16. | :31:23. | |
telling me the truth. To be honest. Who are you. Shazan plea ya. | :31:23. | :31:30. | |
say you have no points. -- Mia. You would know about the points. | :31:30. | :31:36. | |
couldn't. Unless they're old. They're not old. Within how many | :31:36. | :31:41. | |
years? They're this year. reason they give you false details | :31:41. | :31:43. | |
is because they have done something they want to hide. Your don't know | :31:43. | :31:49. | |
what you will get. But you know that the person's given you the | :31:49. | :31:55. | |
wrong details. I couldn't even remember. Well your last one shows | :31:55. | :32:00. | |
you have points for speeding in August. If I had got points for | :32:00. | :32:04. | |
speeding. Was that on the motorway. It doesn't malter where, you would | :32:04. | :32:10. | |
remember. It is only a few months ago. Three points, oh man. He is | :32:10. | :32:15. | |
running out of answer and will have more trouble explaining what PC | :32:15. | :32:22. | |
Nijjar has found in the car. found a letter from the courts. And | :32:22. | :32:29. | |
he had come from the the courts and received a �60 fine and three | :32:29. | :32:36. | |
points. And that was in a different name. That is my brother's details. | :32:36. | :32:42. | |
There is other papers. Why are you carrying your brother's details. | :32:42. | :32:49. | |
is my sister's car. Has your brother been arrested before? | :32:49. | :32:56. | |
couldn't speak for him. How are you. I'm the person on the Scripps, | :32:56. | :33:02. | |
Shazan Mee ya. How many times do I have to say. -- person on the | :33:02. | :33:05. | |
script, Shazan Mia. How many times do I have to say. You say you're | :33:05. | :33:11. | |
that person. Who do you think I am. I don't know tell us. How old is | :33:11. | :33:21. | |
:33:21. | :33:25. | ||
your brother. Which one. This one? 22, 236789 How old are you? I'm 26. | :33:25. | :33:31. | |
When. Just gone basically. Just gone. He wasn't going to play ball | :33:31. | :33:36. | |
with us, the only option was to be to take him to the station. I got | :33:36. | :33:45. | |
out to bring him out in case he had anything that could do us harm. | :33:46. | :33:54. | |
in there my friend. Right. attempt to pass himself off as his | :33:54. | :33:59. | |
brother has backfired big time. You're lying to us. You're under | :33:59. | :34:07. | |
arrest for obstructing a police officer. I'm angry with him for | :34:07. | :34:11. | |
really... Getting himself into trouble that he didn't need to get | :34:11. | :34:18. | |
into. It seems pointless. It seemed pointless, because yes, he is | :34:18. | :34:23. | |
committing offences, no insurance, it is a motoring offence. It is not | :34:23. | :34:29. | |
a criminal offence. See how good you look for lying. I asked you | :34:29. | :34:34. | |
several times. I don't know. have got people like that you know | :34:34. | :34:40. | |
are lying, that think they can pull the wool over your eye and they | :34:40. | :34:45. | |
know better than yourselves. I hope we will deal with him and he will | :34:45. | :34:50. | |
get the punishment he deserves. reason for his pretence is simple. | :34:50. | :34:54. | |
Is what why you have given us false detail, because you have no | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
insurance. Yes. But it has got him into more serious trouble. You're | :34:59. | :35:02. | |
getting yourself a criminal record just for muck us about. I thought | :35:03. | :35:09. | |
it was worth the risk, I would be banned. There will always be people | :35:09. | :35:15. | |
who will give it a run and some no doubt have got away with minor | :35:15. | :35:20. | |
offences, and as a result, the word gets around, give it a go. But | :35:20. | :35:27. | |

is it cancelled? You haven't been paying. I have money on my bank | :38:48. | :38:52. | |
account and they should take it. Well all can I go by is what they | :38:52. | :38:59. | |
have told me. When they dance alpolicy, for non-payment -- cancel | :38:59. | :39:08. | |
a policy for non-payment, they sends letters. Don't just send one | :39:08. | :39:13. | |
letter out. They send three to say you're in danger. The thirds one | :39:13. | :39:20. | |
says it has been cancelled. It is not a one offer. I think it was x | :39:20. | :39:24. | |
Kuzes. The driver will pay a harsh penalty. The vehicle does haven't | :39:24. | :39:30. | |

do is seize the vehicle. It will go into a police compounds. And we | :39:35. | :39:41. | |
will explain how you can get it back. How will I reach the home? | :39:41. | :39:49. | |
The work? Bus, taxi, walk. We are going to take you to a garage and | :39:49. | :39:52. | |
that is where it will stay until you pay a recovery fee and a | :39:52. | :39:57. | |

Gaunt also has no time for his excuses. It is always somebody | :41:03. | :41:07. | |
else's fault. It astounds me. It is not our fault you're not insured. | :41:07. | :41:13. | |
It is your fault. You didn't sort it out. It is a simple answer, go | :41:13. | :41:17. | |
to courts and tell them you don't have time to get insluerd. They | :41:17. | :41:24. | |
would love it. We understand, you're a busy man. I know it's | :41:24. | :41:28. | |

a break down. -- patrol. For some reason the member of the public has | :42:01. | :42:06. | |
rarted -- reported they think the driver has been drinking. The cops | :42:06. | :42:11. | |
don't usually deal with break downs, but a report of drink driving calls | :42:11. | :42:19. | |
for an immediate response. We're looking for a black car. There is a | :42:19. | :42:28. | |
female. There it is there. On the left. A tyre there. Ore dear, it | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
has lost it. This incidents is more serious than they first thought. | :42:34. | :42:39. | |
There was debris in the roads and people milling around. It was a | :42:39. | :42:44. | |
dangerous place to be. The priority is to make sure everyone's safe and | :42:44. | :42:48. | |
then to locate the driver. There were other people around and all | :42:48. | :42:53. | |
indicated to the lady as being the driver of the car and it was | :42:53. | :43:02. | |
apparent she had been drinking. Come and have a seat sit in the car. | :43:03. | :43:08. | |
Hello there. It is a situation that needs careful handling. She is not | :43:08. | :43:18. | |
:43:18. | :43:20. | ||
only drink but upset. What happened? Sorry? Yeah. Yes what? | :43:20. | :43:30. | |
:43:30. | :43:31. | ||
is not right what happened. What did lap? -- happen. I think the | :43:31. | :43:36. | |
wheel is down on there, do you wants to sort it out. Sorry what | :43:36. | :43:46. | |
:43:46. | :43:46. | ||
happened? Yeah. You tell me what happened. I can't hear. Yes. Gosh. | :43:47. | :43:51. | |
I should have never come to England. Never. Don't worry about coming to | :43:51. | :43:55. | |

:44:16. | :44:16. | ||
Yes. They're checking the damage. Got a deflated tyre. If you look, | :44:16. | :44:20. | |
the front near side tyre is detached. I think it was back down | :44:20. | :44:25. | |
there as we came. So I don't know what has gone on. Whether she has | :44:25. | :44:30. | |
come around the corner and struck the barrier. There is damage to the | :44:30. | :44:34. | |

could not manage... You could not manage to get round the corner. | :44:52. | :44:56. | |
Despite losing a wheel, she has carried on a few hundred metres | :44:56. | :45:00. | |
before stopping. It is fairly unusual for the Wales to come off, | :45:00. | :45:04. | |
pointing to the fact that she was travelling too quickly, and the | :45:05. | :45:13. | |
amount of the impact she has had has brought it to come off. | :45:13. | :45:22. | |
long ago did you have your last drink? A about one our goal. | :45:22. | :45:27. | |

something to drink. You have provided me with a positive breath | :46:33. | :46:37. | |
test, showing that you are over the drink-driving limit. You are under | :46:37. | :46:42. | |
arrest on suspicion of drink- driving. You do not have to say | :46:42. | :46:47. | |
anything. Sue has blown 80, that is twice the legal limit of 35. | :46:47. | :46:54. | |
you put your seat belt on for me? Yes. We have one female adult in | :46:54. | :47:04. | |
custody. She has clearly had a lot to drink. You do not have a barrier | :47:04. | :47:07. | |
and lose a wheel, and drive down the road unless you have had quite | :47:07. | :47:15. | |
a lot to drink, to be honest. It is a bit sad. It is wrong, it kills | :47:15. | :47:25. | |
:47:25. | :47:25. | ||
people, drink-driving, you just don't do it. Oh my God. It has | :47:25. | :47:32. | |
happened. We just have to deal with what has happened now. I know that | :47:32. | :47:40. | |
it is stupid and that I shouldn't do it. It is all now a finally | :47:40. | :47:49. | |
sinking in. And I should know better, I should know better. I am | :47:49. | :47:53. | |
a nurse, patient their purpose. And I am now at a police station. That | :47:54. | :48:03. | |
:48:04. | :48:14. | ||
is all right. Why not? Some offenders think they can get away | :48:14. | :48:20. | |
with it time and time again, until, one day, or one night, their luck | :48:20. | :48:26. | |
ones out. Before she became a motor report, PC won't -- PC Jess Rojek | :48:26. | :48:33. | |
was on the beach in Small Heath, an area of Birmingham. We were going | :48:33. | :48:39. | |
round mile patch where I used to work. Before the motorway. -- my | :48:39. | :48:43. | |
old patch. I saw a car where I could see that the driver was not | :48:43. | :48:53. | |
:48:53. | :49:04. | ||
wearing a seatbelt. That is the The driver is not just failing to | :49:04. | :49:08. | |
wear his seat belt. It has been discovered from the police database | :49:08. | :49:13. | |
that he has also failed to get insurance. The car was 12 years old, | :49:13. | :49:20. | |
another reason that PC, and is keen to take a punt -- another look. | :49:20. | :49:26. | |
find that people driving older cars tend to commit offences. Because it | :49:26. | :49:31. | |
is a �100 car they do not insure it, because the insurance out ways the | :49:31. | :49:35. | |
value of the car. Why pay �1,000 insurance for a car that is worth | :49:35. | :49:43. | |
�200? But, PC, and is not prepared for the man who gets out. -- PC | :49:43. | :49:53. | |
:49:53. | :49:55. | ||
Coleman. Her though, jump in. It is the white van man! What is your | :49:55. | :50:05. | |
:50:05. | :50:11. | ||
name? Do you have ID? No, I haven't. Immediately, it was obvious these | :50:11. | :50:17. | |
two knew each other. But not according to the man. A are you | :50:17. | :50:25. | |
sure your name is not Munir Hussain? 100%. What is your name? | :50:25. | :50:32. | |
Shakira Nadia. Water records often come across persistent offenders | :50:32. | :50:40. | |
but this is especially memorable for PC common. We were with the BBC | :50:40. | :50:44. | |
at the time we stopped this man. And that programme was on for weeks | :50:45. | :50:54. | |
:50:55. | :50:55. | ||
ago. You don't remember me? 100%? Take your glasses off. Have a look | :50:55. | :51:03. | |
of it there. Look that way. You don't remember me at all? What is | :51:03. | :51:12. | |
your real name? Munir Hussain? has made a schoolboy error with his | :51:12. | :51:19. | |
idea. You have got now driving licence. He is using someone else's | :51:19. | :51:24. | |
name, and he has got no licence. If you are going to use somebody's | :51:24. | :51:30. | |
details you want them to be clean. Do you remember re-arrested you | :51:30. | :51:35. | |
with a white van and we went to court with you? Yes or no? If you | :51:35. | :51:38. | |
carry on flying, I am going to arrest you for attempting to | :51:38. | :51:43. | |
pervert the course of justice. Don't be silly. You are on national | :51:43. | :51:53. | |
television. I went to court with your last year. What is your name? | :51:53. | :52:03. | |
:52:03. | :52:07. | ||
Shaqeel Nazir. It is Munir Hussein. I wanted him to have some honesty, | :52:07. | :52:12. | |
but he would not tell me. We do not believe who you are, so you are | :52:12. | :52:16. | |
under arrest. PC Coleman has some idea why the man is refusing to | :52:16. | :52:26. | |
:52:26. | :52:27. | ||
come clean. Are you busy? I knew he was disqualified because he had | :52:27. | :52:34. | |
previous dealings with me, and I knew that he was disqualified. You | :52:34. | :52:40. | |
come up to me in court and said, no hard feelings! For whatever reason | :52:40. | :52:44. | |
he was never going to tell Alan what his name and date of birth | :52:44. | :52:50. | |
were. So he knows who you are, you know you are, why don't you just | :52:50. | :53:00. | |
:53:00. | :53:11. | ||
say who you are? And your date of birth? So, first name is Munir | :53:11. | :53:20. | |
Hussain, birth date 290478. must have recognised me? How could | :53:20. | :53:30. | |
:53:30. | :53:32. | ||
you forget? Why is this the jackpot for me? With the camera crew again, | :53:32. | :53:42. | |
:53:42. | :53:42. | ||
come on. I am telling you now, you have been in front of us... The it | :53:42. | :53:47. | |
was just a spooky coincidence. about being in the wrong place, at | :53:47. | :53:54. | |
the wrong time. But that is what happened. He was not having a good | :53:54. | :54:00. | |
ear. At Aston police station in Birmingham, it is not looking good | :54:00. | :54:04. | |
for the drink-driver who crashed on the motorway. She is being brought | :54:04. | :54:14. | |
:54:14. | :54:20. | ||
Black coat. The its, a black pad. He every prisoner is subjected to | :54:20. | :54:24. | |
the same routine, including a detailed description of their | :54:25. | :54:32. | |
clothing. But some make more of it than other. Black boots. Do you | :54:32. | :54:42. | |
:54:42. | :54:53. | ||
want to know my knickers, or my What is that? I am a woman. | :54:53. | :54:58. | |
Exasperation is what I think it is. I have been married for a loan time, | :54:58. | :55:06. | |
I am used to women sign. But then the playful manager changes. I want | :55:06. | :55:10. | |
to see my solicitor straight away. The breath test procedure cannot be | :55:10. | :55:15. | |
delayed in order for you to speak to your solicitor. A I want to see | :55:15. | :55:20. | |
my solicitor, now. I think she is used to being in the driving seat, | :55:20. | :55:25. | |
telling people what to do. But she's in the custody block and had | :55:25. | :55:35. | |
:55:35. | :55:38. | ||
to do what she is told. What are you doing? Oi! It is quite bad, | :55:38. | :55:42. | |
that is a word that I have learned in England. You look at these | :55:42. | :55:46. | |
people who have high profile jobs, and you think, you should know | :55:46. | :55:53. | |
better. And you want to tell them that sometimes. Keep going, keep | :55:53. | :56:03. | |
:56:03. | :56:04. | ||
going, keep going, keep going. Well done. OK. Deep breath in. Keep | :56:04. | :56:12. | |
going, keep going, keep going, keep going. Well done. Do you want to | :56:12. | :56:19. | |
sit down? It can make you feel like he did doing that. Your lowest | :56:20. | :56:26. | |
reading a 73, so you are double the drink-driving limit, basically. It | :56:26. | :56:32. | |
is not that funny. For I am a big criminal! I think it is very | :56:32. | :56:38. | |
serious. She has been lucky to escape without injuring herself and | :56:38. | :56:43. | |
others, and for PC Hadley, she has been flirting with disaster. There | :56:43. | :56:47. | |
will always be people who want to take the risk. It is not worth | :56:47. | :56:51. | |
taking the chance. People get killed by drink-drivers. The | :56:51. | :56:57. | |
consequences of that are horrible. Everybody knows that you are not | :56:57. | :57:02. | |
supposed to do it. Everybody knows the dangers. Campaigns have been | :57:02. | :57:06. | |
made for years telling people not to do it, and the results are self | :57:06. | :57:12. | |
evident. I have got no sympathy for people who do it. The drunk Dutch | :57:12. | :57:18. | |
woman was fined �460, paid �105 costs, and was banned from driving | :57:18. | :57:24. | |
for 17 months. The medic who was drunk at the wheel was fined �200, | :57:24. | :57:28. | |
had to pay �95 in costs and was disqualified for driving from 12 | :57:28. | :57:32. | |
months. The man who had no time to check his monthly insurance | :57:32. | :57:38. | |
payments to seat six points on his licence and was paid �100 -- fine | :57:38. | :57:43. | |
�100 for driving without insurance. He was too busy to pick of his car, | :57:43. | :57:47. | |
which was scrapped. No further action was taken against the driver | :57:47. | :57:53. | |
with the other said vodka, but the van and the Booker were seized and | :57:53. | :57:56. | |
destroyed by customs officers. The man who gave false details because | :57:56. | :58:01. | |
he didn't not have insurance was fined �100, plus 65 praise for | :58:01. | :58:07. | |
obstructing police, and received six points on his licence. Munir | :58:07. | :58:12. | |
Hussain, the driver to refuse to give his real name, was fined for | :58:12. | :58:16. | |
driving while disqualified, having no insurance, and no MoT. He did | :58:16. | :58:23. | |
not collect his car, so it was scrapped. And the motor cyclist | :58:23. | :58:28. |
