They must pay out backhanders to make 'The Bill', this guy didnt know the 'routine'.
I wonder how special constables get away with it? Must be legal to impersonate a lollipop lady.

I wish they'd arrest those Highways Agency vehicles that are impersonating the police.
The number of times I've come across plebs queued up behind them thinking they're either the fuzz or have the power to stop you for speeding.
From a distance they might be convincing but not when you get closer and see "Highways Agency" on their bumper. Come on people, put your foot down

And bloody right he should be charged. Perhaps if he was a professional businessman like some of you like to pretend he would have done the required research to ensure his "costume" was legal!

Yeah you have to watch out for those undercover cartoon cops!!
