I was crossing the main street on my way home this afternoon and saw two policemen converging on a stationary scooter, blowing whistles. I don’t know what he’d done, but from the angle it was facing, I’d presume negligent driving at the least. The rider managed to get the scooter sorted out and took off before they reached him. While one of the police used the radio to call his colleage at the next intersection, the other gave chase. Not in a patrol car or high power police bike. No, he pulled over a passing taxi and said, ‘Follow that scooter!’
