The Motorway Cops: Catching Britain's Speeders

Nicky Campbell narrates as the series follows the work of Staffordshire police, with PC Ed Clarke being taken on a wild ride through Stoke-on-Trent after he spots a ropey-looking Vauxhall that fails to stop. On the M6, PC Kara Pilarczyk is overtaken by a speeding driver clocking 97mph, while PC Chris Bagnall receives a call about an illegal off-road bike riding along the pavement near Newcastle-under-Lyme.

PC Ed Clarke responds to a 999 call from a worried driver who is behind a van on the M6 that is all over the road and has nearly collided with the central reservation. When Ed gets eyes on the vehicle, the dangerous driving is clear to see and a breathalyser test at twice the drink drive limit explains everything. On the night shift, PCs Kara Pilarczyk and Tom Cordall pull over a delivery driver for not wearing his seatbelt, but the man's evasive behaviour raises suspicions.

PCs Lucy Pond and Mark Gribble join the hunt for a wanted criminal following reports that the man has rammed a police car. PC Ed Clarke is alerted to a suspicious vehicle on a petrol forecourt linked to the supply of counterfeit goods and when he discovers a holdall crammed with foreign cigarettes, the driver claims he is on his way to Lidl to make a delivery. In Stoke-on-Trent, officers chase a white van on cloned plates.
