"Hi guys, just wanna make you all aware of some people who are trying to pose as police officers and trying to make people pull over. A man and a unknown driver in a silver Mercedes Van which is show in the picture tried to make me pull over and at the Oldbury Asda traffic lights at around 11:45pm on 6th October. The traffic lights were red and at the lights he said to me “Is the vehicle yours” he then said “he is the police” I asked for identification and a badge which he couldn’t prove and he demanded I’d pull over to the side where he would show me there. I then accelerated off and he began to chase me over the Birchley island where I lost him and called the police.
He is an Asian male 30 to 40, quite stocky and large with a beard and was wearing a hi visibility jacket.
Do not pull over!
Stay safe."

I saw this same driver but got the plate slightly wrong. Erratic dangerous overtaking and tailgating on the A6 between Luton and Bedford on Saturday 4th July. Typical aggressive impatient Merc driver.
Brake lights are still on, smoke from exhaust - the car hasn't parked yet, could be dropping someone off, or in the middle a=of a manoeuvre for all I know...
