Breakin' The Law'I'd taken some mushrooms in a pub,' writes Allen Smithee, 'and things had got a bit odd. People turning into goblins, barstools into toadstools etc. I wandered off from my friends and found myself in a carpark. I noticed a huge liquorice allsort driving towards me and Bertie Basset got out. I kinda realised that Bertie was a policeman and my brain went into paranoid fast forward. I decided that I must be being arrested and said, "I'll just get in the back of your car, Officer" Bertie looked at me with disgust, "Not bleeding likely sunshine. Just piss off home ok?"'

Blues & TwosHi! Long time listener, first time caller!
Here in Australia, the police cars have an external switch to activate the red & blue lights, usually subtly sticking out of the radiator. This is to allow the rozzers to turn on the lights while they are standing outside the car during random breath testing or speed traps. Not sure how I found out, but I discovered that this switch activates the lights, even if the car is locked up, with no keys in the ignition.
After telling a mate about it, now whenever he walks past an empty police car, he has to switch the lights on, even if the car is parked outside a police station.
Needless to say it has resulted in us legging it up the road many times before the coppers come after us.
