    Was followed for 32 Km

    This morning while driving to uni I noticed a silver ford territory following from my area all the way to uni. Bear in mind i did try and suss out whether it was a coincidence or not by turning into random streets. Definitely was followed. Never had any troubles with the police. Can't seem to figure out why anyone would have that much time to follow a vw for 32 Km. Anyone else had or heard of a similar story?

    Cheers

    Funny thing is a couple of weeks ago I had a police check for placement work in the hospital. I wouldn't be scared if it was the police. I'm more concerned that it'll be some psycho bastard.

    Sounds like a lot of trouble just to have a look at it. Not saying it isn't worth looking at, but 32klms?

    Could also be someone else in the area with a similar car that hasn't been doing the correct or legal thing. Never know these days, especially if you live in a high substance flow area.

    Have had similar thing happen to me and friends.

    Not saying you are a "hoon" but maybe this person has seen you doing some spirited driving.

    Or just some bloke wanting to know where ya live so he can get himself a new car.

    Just got to be careful.

    I would not worry too much about it. It must have been a quiet day for them. At least they got to log some patrol time

    Around Christmas last year I was heading to Bendigo on the Hume Hwy and was followed by a NSW Highway Patrol car for around half an hour from Yass. I had the Caddy on cruise control set to a true 109 km/h. Maybe they wanted to see if the cruise control would make a mistake.

    Later I went from Bendigo to Geelong in the new year. As I turned on to the main road through Bendigo (Midland Hwy), a motorcycle officer came up behind me. He followed me through the Bendigo CBD, then turned off. A couple of km or so later when I was stopped at lights, he came up behind me again and followed me from there right until I left the Bendigo limits when he polled over and turned around.
