Please do a video where you take one of the officers on a trackday and let him try some cool cars, great way to let them enjoy themselves. Keep up the great content.
My dad is an ex copper... He loves driving the Ferrari on the track... The older coppers are usually the best. They have seen everything. And have a better sense of discretion, fairness and more human.
I’ll admit I don’t really watch your channel, but these 2 videos are top work Archie! First car RU-vidr I’ve seen go down this route and it’s great! Makes you realise what a tough job the police have and how doing our part & staying safe helps everyone else. I had to turn the volume up a little to here them, but otherwise great work! 👍
Really love videos like this, Pretty impressive how the traffic officers anticipate where a drivers going to end up, i know it can be hit or miss but with great teamwork it can work. Could see Archie as a traffic cop, already a great driver. Drive safe all
Wow this is genuinely fantastic content Archie. Thanks Surrey Police for allowing Archie to go out with you. As one of the other subscribers said, it would be cool for you to return the favour and take the Police out on a track day and show them your world.
Archie it is great to see your perspective of the traffic Police and you captured it perfectly. Normal human beings who have a serious job to do. I am an interceptor and it is good to see how much of an effect what we do has had on a member of the public, not a film crew. Your content in this regard hopefully will hit home with some of your subscribers and maybe save a few lives.
I’m watching this video again! What a video, what a genuinely epic video! This is so cool, the ending so cool! That Stinger , bye bye tyres! Loved the air footage, the stinger footage, I am glad the people in the car park are ok. Cannot wait to see more
Vote for Archie to take one of his cars to the Nurburgring 🙋♂️. Doesn’t matter what car, it’ll be cool to see you driving around the track. Maybe even link up with Misha Charoudin
Soooooo much respect for the traffic police Archie!! Honestly, what an interesting and varied job, but my good they must see some heartbreaking stuff 😖
Kudos to the top brass at Surrey Police for letting you film with their officers. It's a fascinating insight into the reality of police work and the professionalism of its officers without any stupid dramatic music or slick editing that's seen in TV documentaries.
I'm loving these police videos, especially as i recognise all the areas you're in, starting in guildford and going round the a3 and m25, my daily route to work! awesome stuff i love seeing what goes on in my area
Nothing makes you happier than Police and Traffic Cops, nothing makes me happier than you!!! Great Job Archie, keep up the good work, well deserved Sub!
Great video it just goes to show what officers have to deal with on a day to day basis. Go to an accident not sure what they are gonna see, then later deal with a pursuit having to concentrate drive fast and safe and then deal with an offender.. well documented Archie !!!!
Archie, Absoloutley Awesome video & insight to a night shift with the police. Great content mate, Driving Safely is paramount …… My late father was an advanced Police Driving Instructor & i learnt so much from him. Take Care Archie 🙏🏼 🤜🏻🤛🏻
This is a PG-13 shift. My uncle used to work night shift and went to countless domestic issues, rapes, violent thefts, and worse. Respect goes out to all officers around the world
Response units probably went to those incidents which were no doubt somewhat still occuring. Archie was with the Traffic units so focussed only on road crime.
Hello again 'Archie', once more a really good 'vlog', great the Surrey Police have allowed you to be involved, interesting info, hope they let you do more. Regards, RichardA.
Archie you’ve landed on a great topic for your videos. We’re all loving this in conjunction with your track / racing content. 👌great blend of content (pls avoid your Honda E appearance)
Well if they get caught, it isn't just a £100 fine, it is 3 points on their licence. Most of them probably don't know that the law changed a while back and still think it is only a £100 fine. I guess they will find out the hard way eventually. 😉
I'm a big fan of the Police tv series on Tele, I watch all of them. What an experience Archie, I have nothing but respect for the traffic officers and how they work as a team.
Plate regulations have been around forever, if a camera can’t read a number plate it’s not the fault of the camera. People go to whatever lengths needed to obscure their identity, usually so they can commit other crimes.
Excellent content Archie , if you can save one life through this content this would excellent. Keep up the good work. Maybe worth looking at doing some content on street racing.
Track driving and on-road police driving are so different, you can't even begin to imagine. One is about pushing the car to the limits in a controlled environment with very little risk to yourself or others, the other is about driving a car to near your abilities but keeping it under control at all times, anticipating well in advance and second guessing what a member of the public might do, and the best mitigating action you can take, whilst still "making progress" at some speed, where I serve we are taught "double plus ten" as a guide, but not to exceed that. So 70 in a 30, 90 in a 40 etc. Typically 60-70 mph is standard in a restricted 30 zone, and most drivers will do that, in a 40 it's typically between 70 and 90, but of course that all depends on road conditions, traffic conditions, visibility, etc. The advanced police driver course is so stupidly fast, a lot of blue light response drivers fail it, and aren't comfortable on it, because they are expected to travel so fast it's well out of their comfort zone. I know a blue light driver I used to work with who's now about 20 years in the job, and been blue lighting it around for about 15 of those years. He took his advanced driver course and dropped out after week 1 of 3. He stated they were expecting him to drive so fast he wasn't comfortable with it, at one point he stated that he was told he should be doing around 100 Mph on a restricted 30Mph road.
Please please please keep doing these videos archie they are ace. Love all your content keep doing what you do mate. It would be good to see you on a track with your RS6 getting chased by the police just to see how the police car handles compared to the RS6 lol
Archie lad... Welcome to the real world.... this goes on every day mate my best friend is a police intersepter and no two days are ever the same they do a great job 👍
I feel you're cutting the officers short. Let them finish the sentence! Besides that, love the enthusiasm and quite informative. Wish I knew more about the plates as we didn't get onto gels etc but good vid
Ask the police to set up a stinger and you to drive over them and see how the vehicle handles, slows or can you drive it faster. Be quite interesting as you’re a good controller of fast cars etc. take care and another good video.
Blimey everyone is called Dan! As for so many plates Dan could host an episode of Countdown with all those letters! 4D plates look like they have been assembled from Lego bricks. Just fit a normal number plate and save the chance of a meeting with Dan and Dan. It would be interesting to look at the specification of tyre that the Police operate with together with views on fitment of the likes of winter and all season tyres versus summer tyres. Thank you.
As a recently retired Roads Policing Officer it is nice to see you Archie as a young man supporting the police in such a positive way, well done and thank you..
