First time I’ve heard a police officer actually call out a real I’ve been rammed!
Most of the time the police are ramming suspects and radio in “ I’ve been rammed “ whilst ramming .

Nothing will be done about it, he might get his knuckles rapped. I bet he's been out driving since July/August last year. The laws an ass.

Charge for attempted murder, all rights taken away, and to die in prison! End Of! This would reduce this and most crime withing months! As they are all cowards, and brought up by mummy and daddy who never said NO!

Charge him with attempted murder as well as driving whist disqualified, driving without insurance, dangerous driving, attempt to flee arrest, and everything else he did whist attempting to escape. 4 years is an absolute disgrace the criminal prosecution service just couldn’t be bothered this is what’s wrong, it should be a discouragement to be sent to jail not a rest and r& but made to work for there accommodations and food , people like this, never learn from there mistakes so he should be should be given life time driving bans
