if you're being undertaken (without being cut up), you're in the wrong lane.
The key part is in brackets...
Ah, so your argument is against people who cut you up, then. Cool, glad we cleared that up. (-:
I'd just drive around like a ****, shouting 'SHUT IT!' a lot.

And bedding sexy ladies. Because that's what coppers do, isn't it?

Sorry, did my original post not give subtle hints that "driving like a dickhead" would be the prime target? I thought in context my examples would have made that fairly clear.
I used to have an ex. Police SD1 as a lad.
I'd have a Q car, something a granny would drive, but with some modifications to the engine, brakes, and suspension. How about a Micra?
I'd target people who travel closer than two seconds to the vehicle in front, people who don't indicate, and people who overtake in no overtaking zones. And scrotes who park on grass verges (even though their isn't a law against this, I'd invent one). Oh yes, and oiks with illegal number plates (dumber plates). And I'd give condescending words of advice (slowly, to eat into their precious time) to anyone who drove forwards onto their drive or into a supermarket space.
I'd patrol my local area (King's Lynn, Norfolk) because these offences are rife here.
You're aware that undertaking is perfectly legal, yes?
It's as perfectly legal as pushing a screwdriver into someone's head, there's no specific law saying it isn't legal, but it is covered under a blanket law. In the case of undertaking the law is Dangerous Driving.

You show me a case where someone has been convicted of dangerous driving solely on the evidence of having "undertaken" and I won't require you to retract that 100% horse poop statement. 🙂

anyone without commonsense
Bridgnorth rd, Wollaston anywhere between Duncomb street and High park - in particular the car park outside the shops
Alright, might have got a little overexcited at 140
Not like the police to exaggerate!

Probably wouldn't spend much time arresting folk though. Just firing that up, running it for a quarter mile then filling it with fuel again.

And spend the day herding yachties out of the way of battleships, submarines and the ferry in Plymouth Sound. 😀
If it was GMP anyone remember X Cars on BBC 1 around 1996 ?www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuWhmrtBLI4
That's the one absolute classic 😀

@ sbob
The three grids line - start on the nearside close in, drift to the centre, drift back to the nearside at your exit. Done properly on an empty road you feel the tyres cross three grids or drains on the way through, NS, OS, NS.
Done badly on a busy road you carve up someone else to your right.
I'm thinking one of these for dual carriageway side-by-side lorries, caravanners and pensioners.

I'd go around harrassing negros and shooting at flying speedboats, then chase them in my cousins jetboat.
And no doubt if any of the previous posters were to be pulled for a slight transgression or momentary lapse (the kind that we're all prone to from time to time), instead of being nuked from orbit as we 'should' be, they'd merely expect the Copper to show some 'common sense' and let them on their way with a warning. Because that would be all that was really required etc etc 🙄
There was the bloke who tailgated me several times on my drive to work. Well he did when I took the Fiesta, but not if I took a bigger car, he stayed well back then. And the man who did the using the right turn lane as an overtaking lane stunt every morning.
I think it's quite common for some to have a [i]momentary lapse[/i], same time same place, on their commute. Nothing smaller than a 50-cal, I say.
