Thought this one might make Mr Smart smile:

Two police officers have been suspended from driving duties after crashing a high-performance car they had seized from a suspected drink-driver.
The driver of the Mitsubishi Lancer had been arrested and taken into custody after being stopped in Hale Barns, Greater Manchester, on Friday morning.
Officers were driving the car away - against force policy - when it crashed through two gardens. One was injured.

The local rags are running 'Cops might get charged' headlines but I don't see how they can't charge them with speeding and due care for starters. You don't fly that far at 30mph
