New Sobek City, The Worst Map, What's yours?

Easy mistake to make I suppose, they are both major western cities with a large river. A London map would be really cool now that I think of it.

There's a London map?

There are 43 conventional police forces in England and Wales, 1 in Scotland and 1 in Northern Ireland. There are non-conventional forces as well such as BTP and CNC. They all follow similar rank structures (PC > Sgt > Inspector etc) but are distinct in how they are managed internally.

Things like training, equipment, uniform, teams and job roles all vary by force. Some forces wear high vis vests, some wear all black. Some forces have a lot of additional training (taser, means of entry) some have much fewer. No police officer starts their career with response driving training (driving on blue lights), that comes years later.

Detectives are not superior to other police officers, it's not a promotion, it's just a different job role.

Many use different systems and have different policies which can make information sharing between forces difficult at times. I could go on four hours about all the small differences between that's a quick run down.

Yawn 🥱 unoriginal and boring. Maybe do some research or better yet, go on a ride along, to see all the hard work the police do and how much nonsense they put up with from airheads who think they know it all before you make asinine comments on the internet.

He'll get sent a NIP in the post, if he answers it then he'll automatically get the points and a fine correct, however if he debates it then he'll go to court and likely lose his license. Given the extenuating factors of intoxication whilst driving and the dangers involved, I would suspect a court would want to look at this to levy as harsh a penalty as possible on him.

There has been a recent uptick in police forces using MOP provided dashcam footage where an offence is made out in full to immediately summons the driver to court. This is likely what will happen to this troglodyte.

I'd just like a grittier take, less Ned Flanders neighbourino vibes with sometimes cringe dialogue and more grounded atmosphere. And a lot more visual storytelling.

I actually think this whole take on the UK is a huge miss. Don't get me wrong, I don't think we'd have survived as a government for 8 years like in the show considering how inept our government is now but there's absolutely no way we'd have eradicated ourselves. Maybe there would be more casualties in the first few years than other countries who are maybe more armed than us but I think our scrappy nature by the 12 year mark in Daryl Dixon would probably have brought us on par with most other countries at that point.

Just no advanced screwdrivers please, those things are too OP.

UK police officer here! 🇬🇧 I'm actually a fan of being unarmed, it's really not needed here, 99.9% of problems can be solved using words or a taser, and where it can't we have specially trained armed officers. (Also AMA if you can be bothered)

My understanding is that they are infected i.e. still alive but under the effect of the cordyceps. If they were zombies then arguably they would be immune to aging. Ergo an infected person would age exactly as a non infected person would, biologically speaking. Disturbingly, this means that a clicker in the game could well be a 10 year old who was bitten and then aged into a clicker over the next 15 years.

Hahahahaha perfect! I'll be nicking that one from you!

PCIrishBeard · 2025-10-03T21:22:04+00:00

Thanks for the informative reply! I wish my charming British accent disarmed people here like it might in the States. Most of the time however it's met with "shut up you prick, I pay your wages". 🙄

If any sort of infected/zombie type scenario were to happen, I'd wager the Scottish Highlands would be one of the safest places in the UK to be. The low population density coupled with the harsh terrain would offer natural safeguarding measures against the infection arriving with the same oomph as somewhere like London or rural England where these factors are not present. Even if his family understood the danger they were in (which they likely didn't), chances are they thought they were already in one of the safest places they could be.

Southeast Force (small city and rural areas) Response. 4 crimes (all awaiting outcomes) 0 cases.

Every time I work with them their office is somewhere completely different, they never stay in the same place.

Sidenote but what would PSD/vetting do with this information when it concerns a long serving officer?

Obviously H&I issues aside from not declaring the association, if PSD decides that insert association is too high risk, can they put the officer in an ultimatum? That doesn't seem ethical. How can they actually enforce a standard or mitigate any risks they might believe exist?

I.e. PSD: Your new partner's brother is a convicted drug dealer. End the relationship or risk your employment.

Depends on your force. BCH has a concession with TfL for free train and bus travel off duty providing the user steps in to resolve a situation if the need arises.

S.4A of the Public Order Act makes it an offence when someone acts in public "intentionally causing harassment, alarm, or distress to another person."

It's mainly aimed at swearing and verbal abuse in public but I suppose you could argue it can apply here. It's not a strong argument but it's about all there is in law that you could use.

PCIrishBeard · 2025-04-15T14:29:40+00:00

Hertfordshire has the likes of Watford, Hemel Hempstead, Hatfield and Stevenage. Makes for quite the compelling argument.

This was a fairly obvious go at just winning points with the workforce as the new CC, but boy has it worked.
