The truck driver's vision at 05:06 is amazing!
-
05:07 more props needed to the lorry driver for flashing you through
-
You provided some valuable training to the cops, by adding a bit of unpredictability to their exercise. I am sure the coppers noted you had joined the motorway and warned all the other coppers involved and risk assessed your presence, warned the coppers performing the rolling road block that you were going to bust through, or they would have had a shock; however, I am positive that all the coppers were aware of your presence. I have to say you handled it very well.

Fabulous drive and added excitement from the TPAC guys. Love the captions you've added. My braking foot jerked at around 5:26 when I spotted the red van moving! Your calm was impressive!
-
Those praising the HGv at 5.07 also note the tipper at 0.46 who had stopped well in advance and left loads of room at the roundabout . Praise also to the TPAC team who recognised they were only on exercise and your need was real.

I wonder what was thought and said by the coppers when you joined their merry band of chasers
-
What timing! Also shows how fast they are - they were gone before you'd managed to leave the traffic!

I think this is an excellent video. Seeing the concentration on your face makes it abundantly clear how dangerous high speed driving is. I found your compliments of cars pulling over in a timely fashion very reassuring. Despite learning about what to do and indeed I would have done what most good examples did, there is always a certain amount of uncertainty that what we do is actually helping not hindering and most importantly, safe.

I would love to see revs and speedometer on these vids. Impressive stuff like always
-
Respect fella. As someone who's hit the blue lights many times that's a great, safe and smooth drive, over a long period of time too. Great example of how to make progress safely.

Thanks again Chris. Always Love your uploads. we are ALL on the same boat when it comes to avoiding getting in the way of the emergency services. it's pretty much common sense at its best. Cheers mate 👍
-
Great video again Chris! Watching it I almost lean over to the side to see what's coming up on the next bend 🙂

That was something pretty special for all I think, some really good timing! As has been said, adding some invaluable help to the police in practice. But, I can also imagine those 'civilians' on the motorway in the lead up to the TPAC must've wondered what on earth was happening! Always a good watch.

Calm, confident, excellent awareness and road positioning, a high speed run aided by the alertness and sense of other drivers (see the lorry flash its lights). And despite the pressure, the driver took the time to acknowledge those who eased his way, which will have lifted their respect for the emergency services. A real credit.

You are switched on! Cliché - You genuinely make this look easy! Flawless work. It's impossible to predict the public! There is a lot going on here. Predicting public, a lot of split second decision making, knowing your own vehicle, Road conditions, obstacles! On and on and on. You make it all flow. Great to watch.

Watching your brain running at +57% And that car is a beast! love the growl and the slight "squat" when everything comes under load.
-
Amazing to see your skill & control and at the same time thanking other drivers 👍😀🇬🇧
-
That was insane & impressive at the same time. Such a driving skill. Way out of my weight class.
-
Another great video Chris and what a unique situation to stumble into a police training exercise!
-
A fantastic 999 drive. Calm and professional. Thank you for the work you do for us all Sir.
