Rulebreakers and Risktakers

BBC One - Motorway Cops, Rulebreakers and Risktakers

The Motorway Cops are called to a crash between a car and a lorry on the M6.

Cracking down on drivers who disregard the law. PCs Paul Finlayson and Tracey Cope are called to a crash between a car and a lorry on the M6.

The Motorway Cops crack down on drivers who disregard the law and deal with the trail of destruction left by those who take dangerous risks on the roads. The cops hear some poor excuses and tackle some difficult drivers.

PCs Paul Finlayson and Tracey Cope are called to a crash between a car and a lorry on the M6. The car's a write-off, and it seems the driver's been drinking, although he plays it down, and even tries to fool the breathalyser - twice.

Over on the M5, PC Adam Toal's patience is tried when he catches a loudmouthed professional driver using his mobile phone; and he's surprised to be overtaken at 80mph by a woman who wants to let her son wave at the police car.

The Cops are forced to shut a large section of the motorway when a late night lorry fire causes misery for motorists on the M6 and an on/off pursuit of a stolen car in Birmingham has an unexpected twist when PCs Toal and Watson finally catch the driver and his passenger.
