I had a stupid guy going off at me while in stopped traffic. I had no idea why he was so abusive as I didn't do anything wrong. I and any other person would at the time be quite concerned as my non-response only mad this guy madder. I was forced to close my window and lock my doors. When the traffic started moving, I pulled over to the side to see what superman's problem was. He was very mad, swearing and carrying on and there were people and kids nearby. I pulled out my badge and told him to pull his head in or we can talk about it at the copshop. Straight away, old mate clammed up and walked away as if nothing had happened.

My point? It seems eveyone here is having a go at off duty coppers doing on duty stuff. What if the superman in my case did what he did to a member of the general public. It may have turned into a nasty road rage incident and who knows what would've happened. I'm sure the innocent party would have welcomed an off duty cop any day.
