Drug dealers caught after undertaking police on M6 hard shoulder

Drug dealers were caught with cocaine with a street value of £500,000 after undertaking a police patrol car as they sped along a motorway hard shoulder.

The two dealers used the hard shoulder to avoid queuing on the M6 near junction seven in the West Midlands.

But they sped past a patrol car and then drove away at 100mph when police asked them to stop.

He appears as if he is going to stop but then drives off, goes through red lights, hits a central reservation and does a lap of a Toby Carvery [ed.: UK equivalent of Applebee's] car-park as he tries to escape.

Stone is then seen to jump from the car with a rucksack, which was later found in bushes containing the drugs, and was arrested as he tried to get in a taxi.

Don't break the obvious, minor laws while you're breaking a big one.

1. Perhaps Stone had been sampling the wares.

Minor laws, MEH, he says.
