Mr Clowning   10 #2 Posted March 5, 2014 The police have had stuff like this, but its the first time I have heard of one used in Sheffield.  Sounds like a good idea but Its all to Orwellian for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

whiteowl   54 #10 Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) Yeah, it took off on Woodseats House Road - you can see the Big Tree almost immediately.  Second clip based more on Wellcarr Road though. Edited March 6, 2014 by whiteowl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
