@@michaelhawthorne8696 no honestly Im a law abiding citizen just think the police do wonders especially motorway patrol. They've helped me out many times
That was my first thought too, but I quickly found out that it's just a way to form a temporarely road block. The debris was removed and traffic continued quickly afterward, so it was well and efficient done!
Last year not far from me home on the M6 I was travelling in the middle lane when I noticed the cars in front braking and swerving the it was an arm Chair in the middle of my lane luckily the car on my inside let me back into the inside lane further down on the hard shoulder was stop a flat back truck wondering what to do . This year this Section of the M6 is being turned into a smart motorway
Excellent work. Although funny that the one police officer got out, so far away, to walk and then had to run because the other guy just drove up to it anyway
I initially thought the same but if you check again there were 2 bits of debris, they stopped at the first smaller piece. Passenger got out and threw it to the side, driver then drove to the second, bigger piece 👍🏻
It’s called a rolling road closure and is now used a lot. Why, because closing a road you have to give weeks of notice, the only time this is not the case is to investigate a fatal or serious collision.
There's two pieces of debris. They stopped by the first one, the passenger picked it up then walked to the next one, while the police car continued to stop traffic.
it's for clarity. UK police cars (and most other emergency vehicles) have flashing blue and white lights at the front and flashing blue and red lights at the back. they never have red lights at the front like american cars.
UK Police used to have blue and red lights, around the 80's/90's if my memory is right, then they changed to all blue. Not all of them did though, all I remember is it's when the cars had the red stripe across the side of the car. I used to love seeing them with the lights going when I was little. And these days, traffic police use red lights on the cars for cautions as far as I know, I could be wrong though.
@@Jadeykins83 Slightly wrong, they were all blue then changed from mid 90's gradually adding whites at the front and reds at the rear. Your correct regarding use of reds for cautionary means. While dealing with a driver/persons on the hard shoulder of any motorway, they turn off the blues but keep the reds on alerting approaching drivers of there presence but when dealing with an RTC, it's all lights on.
Most British police cars have all blue lights, the reason they had red on here is because they were stopping, they are almost like an over exaggerated version of hazards lights, they would not have red lights on if they were in a response 1

Hey - this is a great video! I'm currently working for Purple Productions who're creating a series for Channel 5 about accidents, near misses and road crime in the UK caught on dash cams. If you own this footage we'd potentially be interested in using your footage! Please can you contact me to discuss? My email address is saved in my channel's description box under the "About" section. Thank you in advance, G.
Just found this clip. That's me and my colleague Steve. I thank you all for your positive comments.
Thank you for keeping us safe on the motorway. 👍🏼
What appened ayyy Steve
Job very well executed. First class boys, thank you for your service!
Big thank you from a motorcylist!
Bet you and Steve .. kiss in the back of you police car .. gay boys 👊👊👊
Another potential pile-up averted. Well done, officers. Not the safest or easiest job in the world, but well carried out!
UK police cars look great
Looks same as in my country but they use it for highway patrol.
but slow
@@gary63693 all fun and games till they chasing you in the new volvo polestars and bmw's nothing slow about uk police anymore cept their noggins
@@gary63693 BMWs are slow??
@@gary63693 They aren't slow. Try outrunning one haha.
Operations like this should be broadcast on the TV as public information advice on how to react to scenarios
Fabulous work putting on the rolling road block. Very safely done and amazing driving.
Probably saved that motorcycle from a nasty accident 👌
I absolutely love how they just swoop in, swerving about and then get out and remove the debris. Amazing work.
It's called a "traffic break".
@@BaldMancTwat that sounds like a traffic cop drama on BBC1
@@BaldMancTwat traffic break in USA, usually called a rolling roadblock in UK
Nice work guys, clean, smooth and no long term disruptions, that is how to do it 👍
Well executed officer's you do a great job
LOL...You hoping to get off with your next traffic violation.....🤣
@@michaelhawthorne8696 no honestly Im a law abiding citizen just think the police do wonders especially motorway patrol. They've helped me out many times
That's insane - I've never seen how one police car can stop a motorway from major league accidents.... in moments - well done guys!!
Y'all can't sit still for one minute, Good god
When its the M25 (one of the busiest Motorways in the UK) people will do anything.
I think the police worked it out that way so they’d roll forwards but only slow to keep traffic moving
Adam Games I’m an ex traffic cop, and that is exactly why we did it that way 👍
steve gray thought so 😃
That was about as smooth of a cut, block, and go as you're going to get.
Greetings from Belgium ! Great work out there !
Ga maar slappen
Award that policeman a Gregg;s pastie!
Very efficient work! Well done!
Very professionally done
Easy when people cooperate.
Nice. Did that many times when stationed with CMPG in the West Midlands. M5,M6, M42,M40.
B unit Hindlip.
Superb stop, well executed.
Nice to see it done efficiently
Excellent work.
Good Job, Coppers.
What was the boom-buddie-boom soundtrack all about.
Hvala još jednom na vašem napornom radu i na mom svakodnevnom podsjetniku da moram ostati potpuno fokusiran dok vozim.
How many British cops are going to understand that?
I wonder how many people on the road then thought that the cop was DUI????
That was my first thought too, but I quickly found out that it's just a way to form a temporarely road block. The debris was removed and traffic continued quickly afterward, so it was well and efficient done!
Mandatory speed limit is set at 60 on 2 gantries
Maybe they didn't have time to get the gantries changed?
That's a maximum not a minimum so they've set it to 60 because of the debris and organised a rolling block to clear it.
Came for the video.Cannot stop playing,for that beat . . .
2:08 i though that bike was going to fly past for a second then lol
Hello Pot! Is it okay to use it please ? Credited of course. Thanks in advance.
I wonder how much of a tailback that 2:30 caused
Virginia Fry at least 5 miles
Mind the traffic will be stopped in the tail back for no longer than 2:30. Minor really.
@@jammerthegreat They estimate a mile a minute, but that's if all lanes are closed completely, with no movement.
That's how the police clear the road. If HATOs had done it the Motorway would have been shut for hours!!!
For anyone that didn't understand there was something in the middle of the road that needed moving I've seen a few comments asking what happened 👍
That's the way to do it!
Very well done, excellent planning!
All the clowns in the opposite lane slowing down for a good old look.......at nothing !
The cam car took off like a rocket when the cops cleared off....

Its a rolling car park most of the time anyway hehe
They weren't blocking it. Just drunk.
Whats that odd looking thing in the sky, top right?
it's called ''cloud''.
That was 4 UFOs that they wanted you to ignore.
A mark on the windscreen
Professional police at their best
Good video. Good Police work. Thanks for providing.
Took black Rover driver 5 working days to take the hint
WTF are the speed limit signs for. This clown should be dismissed
he should of been pulling the driver on sitting in the third lane not overtaking

0.22 he didn’t give a fuck about the Land Rover as he swerved back to the left!! 😂
He was trying to herd him back into the traffic, they were kinda in no man's land in the first sweep.

Look at the rubber-kneckers on the opposing carriage way
Sometimes they have horses running the wrong way down a motorway, A12 1991
It looked like the remnants of a blown out tire from a lorry which could have killed some people.
To be fair, it's very difficult for a horse to read the Highway Code - so they probably don't know which is the correct side of the motorway to use.
Clean up the Highway interstate M25
What us he doing?!
Picking up debris on the road
They missed a bit
But... my question is; WTF are those UFOs in the clouds!!! lol ;)

"Report of debris"
Dangerous job that.
Why did they block the road
To clear what appears to be a blown tire from the road

Why didn't they drop him off right near the tyre 🤣

Definitely pro cops
