“The Motorway Cops: Catching Britain’s Speeders” returns to Channel 5, bringing viewers another dose of high-speed pursuits and questionable driving decisions. This week, the action unfolds across Sunderland, Newcastle, and Northumberland, as officers tackle everything from boozy drivers to stolen vehicles and chaotic crashes.
In Sunderland, PC Martain Anderson responds to a hit-and-run incident involving a pedestrian crossing. The driver, perhaps thinking a quick curry would solve everything, returns to the scene with an Indian takeaway in hand – and a noticeable scent of alcohol. Let’s just say, things don’t go well for the driver.
Meanwhile, cameras in Newcastle spot a stolen vehicle, setting off a motorway-wide pursuit. As police give chase, two passengers decide to bail, leaving officers with more questions than answers. And if that wasn’t enough, a multi-car pile-up at a busy interchange in Northumberland takes out the traffic lights, causing chaos and delays for commuters.
Narrated by Nicky Campbell, “The Motorway Cops” provides an inside look at the challenges faced by those who keep Britain’s roads safe.
Tune in to Channel 5 on Monday, April 14th at 8:00 PM for all the action.
