Western Australian police were alerted to a motorist’s “bizarre” behaviour yesterday after a member of the public vigilantly reported them.
WA Police told The Times that a member of the public reported a Toyota Camry maintained a speed of 95kph before the bridge and while crossing it. It is behaviour very rarely seen and understandably cause for alarm. A spokesperson continued,
“If you’re a Perth driver and you don’t shave 20kph off your speed to cross the Mount Henry Bridge then we can only surmise you are whacked up to the eyeballs on goofballs. It just doesn’t make sense. We sent our fiercest Skoda intercept car to suss out the situation”
At approximately, 11:15 am, the SkodaPOL caught up with the vehicle and signalled for them to pull over. That’s when things got really strange.
We spoke to the officer on the scene who said upon seeing the police lights the driver, who mind you was in a fkn CAMRY, didn’t freeze up in a panic but rather smoothly indicated and pulled into the emergency lane in a safe manner. They added,
“That’s when I called for backup. Using a megaphone we instructed the driver to stay in their car with their hands on the wheel. No way we’re just walking into this situation. You just can’t trust someone like that”
After approximately 20 police descended upon the location, the driver was instructed to exit the car so they could assess the situation.
Following a search of the vehicle they found over 3kg of ice and a cache of weapons & money. The driver was seen cursing himself for raising suspicion.
We spoke to an underworld contact who laughed when he heard about the man’s actions. Calling it a “rookie move”, adding,
“Mate, when you’re packing that much heat in the trunk you want to drive as normally as possible. Who does he think he is not slowing down over the bridge? We don’t know why we do it we just do and it caused him massive headaches”
Well there you go.
