Cop on TV Gets Busted for Riding Uninsured | Entertainment and Celebrity News

A former TV cop who starred in shows like “Police Interceptors” and “Traffic Cops” got booted from Derbyshire Police after being caught riding uninsured, unregistered motorbikes — including a friend’s — despite knowing they were off-road. Initially claiming the bike was insured and hadn’t been ridden, he later admitted to repeated violations but downplayed the severity, calling it a breach of professional standards, not gross misconduct. Chief Constable Simon Blatchly called it deliberate and damaging to public trust, and a tribunal agreed — finding his actions gross misconduct. A stark reminder: even those in uniform are held to the highest standards, and falling short has serious consequences.
