Newfoundking Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Considering that scotland is part of the commonwealth, they were probably given special authority (As in that one unit) to protect the torch and escort it from point a to the olympics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunter42 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 It turned out to be a pretty good day for the relay. It was quite good.I clocked four different police forces involved: Fife, Grampian, Strathclyde and Metropolitan. I wonder if the Metropolitan officers get paid extra to travel everywhere with the torches.Loads of bikes aswell.Fife (assuming):Strathclyde:Grampian:Metropolitan:Unmarked police van:Unmarked and marked ambulance:Then there was this police jeep going up and down the street. (pictures not very good. Didn't see it until the last second)And finally some Olympic vehiclesI can't help but laugh at the Coca Cola guy. In hindsight, I should've brought a stepladder so I could see over people, lol. The torch handover happened right across from where I was standing, but everyone rushed out into the street so I couldn't see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
