What's made you smile today?
Section 90 Police Act 1996 (Archbold 22-62) creates several offences relating to the impersonation of police officers or the possession of articles of police uniform, namely:
impersonating a police officer (including a special constable);
making a statement or doing any act calculated falsely to suggest membership of a police force;
wearing a police uniform calculated to deceive;
possessing an article of police uniform.
The circumstances of the case may disclose more than one of these offences. It will seldom be necessary to charge more than one offence. You should select the most appropriate.
You should consider the motive of the defendant. Where the impersonation involves a threat to the safety of any person, or to property, or is done with a view to financial gain, then a prosecution should follow.

trying to make some one believe you are a police officer when your are not is impersonating a police officer. I don't think saying off duty would be a defence if charged.Surely it's not an offence unless he said he was on duty and tried to arrest them?
I replied: "I'm an off duty copper."
I don't think I've ever seen a VW move so bloody quick!!

Dave, convictions should be in the public interest, if they think twice next time they try to buy underage some fags then surely I did good? Grow up Dave.

I'll just wait whilst he's in the clink and go help myself
:devil:
if 1 person can get arrested charged and convicted for saying they are a police officer to 4 blokes who are kicking his head in then i dont think stopping kids buying fags would be a defence.
so you grow up and take friendly advice for what it is.

At the risk of handling stolen goods I will buy them PMSL
that would be my interpretation of the situation and defense if it were me.

Sod it lets have a debate on the illegal cars driving with HID retrofit burners be them in projector lenses or not and the insurance implications...
Or retards drug driving....
:devil:
Anyone posted anything that's against 'God Dave' seems to be bullied by you so no, I won't take your advice.

I think Dave is quite fond of recommending Mk2 punto owners fit HID headlight kits as they are projector units it all OK...... still illegal but fine by dave
infact i believe fitting any aftermarket LED exterior bulbs is technically illegal

Your right...... unless the lamp unit is approved for them but still techinically illegal under uk regs
Then again think the uk law (Road vehicle lighting regs) doesnt cover LED lamps what about the new LED headlight fitted cars or my evo tail lights or how about BMW smart High beam system / cornering lights ..... (thank fook for eec homologation) :devil:
Hmm, I might fit some blue lights behind my grill next.

To be fair there's more chance of DWP finding and convicting someone of benefit fraud from forum posts than Dom getting convicted of impersonation.. We all know how unlikely any of this is so why debate it?

The thing is, of course, that you look like an off-duty policeman...! You don't need the lights....
