As for getting a fine for failing to stop, that won't happen. More or less will be dragged out the window and locked up if you don't get out straight away.

As for not wearing a uniform, of course you can still be done for something.

And yes, you can be stopped and told you'll receive a ticket in the mail. Happens all the time. As for just getting your registration and finding all your details from there, that doesn't always work as quite often the driver is not the registered owner. But then we just chase them up under the ownus that they must tell us who was in the car. Its the law now, if they dont they go to court and there are big fines for that.

I understand that police officers do have different sorts of cars,
but still i WILL NOT STOP. The bottom line is they could be a psycho.
I am happy to follow someone to a police station, but I am sure
a judge will agree that late at night I would be stupid to stop
unless it is a marked unit because my safety could be in question.

On a side note, have you ever noticed on armoured cars that they
say "I will not stop for you, but will be happy to stop at the nearest
police station". Good enough for them, good enough for me...
the precedence has been set your honour
.

No offence Giddy, but if you are not in a marked unit... I simply
won't pull over for you. If you are in a car with lights/siren then
I will be more than happy to stop and have a chat
