Try and calm him down and resolve the situation? No you say, you go right back at him, get in a fight, you get get absolutely pummelled. You come out with some 'pride' intact but have suffered the consequences. This is the perfect analogy to your encounter with the police. Others have said it and I agree - you probably wouldn't have gotten done for the defects if you weren't rude. Plus you were the guy who redlined it up to 60km/h. Hope you warmed your car up first btw :P

You guys also need to put yourself in the shoes of the policeman. If I have a passion for road safety and I see someone being a tool, I'm going to go and have a chat to him about it. I might scare him a little to try and stop him doing it again and let him off with a warning if he is remorseful. If he is a little wanker back to me I'm going to try and tear him a new one. I would, and so would you. Policeman are in the position of power and having anything more than a diplomatic discussion with them is not going to work out well. So lets all get over ourselves and back to the thread
