American Reacts to British Police Pursue Escaping Car Thieves

[@oaksho]

Connor the car that was taken on the back of the truck was taken because it did not comply with the requirements that allow it to be on the road. Such as no number plates no road tax and probably no insurance. Antisocial behaviour is anything that would cause others to feel intimidated or at risk.

A jumper isn’t slang. A jumper is a knitted garment with long sleeves, designed to keep you warm in cold weather. The US calls them sweaters, I think. Same type of garment as a knitted Christmas jumper.

Hi Connor , my sons in london transport police , he works very hard in a job thats very stressful with long hours and little to no thanks . Take a certain kind of person to have the patience , empathy , but the firmness to do the job . Im very proud of him hes one of the good ones 😊

Antisocial Behaviour is not necessarily a criminal offence being committed, it may be just having a party and playing extra loud music to the annoyance of neighbours, or any other annoying behaviour to the general neighbourhood, it covers many many things that are classed as not socially conducive, hope that gives you a clearer picture McJib.

Im from Leeds myself, well I was born just outside of Madrid to a Spanish mother but moved to Leeds as a child. Those flats look like Bumamtofts or Saxton Gardens in Leeds. This program is mainly based in the East Side of Leeds, and the neighbourhoods in East Leeds are definitely some of the most impoverished and deprived in the country, most are probably in the top 1% poorest in the UK, and as duch you get a fair bit of crime and violence. I definitely wouldnt live in places like East End Park or Harehills again if im honest as they both seem to have gone rapidly downhill over the past 10 years. These neighbourhoods are not shown in the UK guidebook and look more like inner city Baltimore than Buckingham Palace, but they exist and have done for many years, they are just forgotten by those in power.

[@tonypate9174]

So no Das Audi Autos to be seen ?

[@nickreece5477]

Connor, I think you should just pay me to review the UK videos you select in advance and I can translate them all for you. I get the feeling the chat here was mostly missed! I think the area in West Yorkshire is called Kilingbeck. That's what confused you.

[@malcspencer8786]

Yeah its not far from me it is Killingbeck on the outer edge of Leeds city center west Yorkshire... its probably one of many bad areas around here.

[@barrywalker4295]

The car removed around 23 mins had no vehicle tax, mot or valid insurance which are all required by law to drive on Uk public roads. The vehicle not having a number plate was mentioned because if the car was stolen, or used by the owner, it could not be traced back to the owner. The owner of the vehicle could be driving it illegally. All vehicles registered in the Uk are kept on a data base with the owners address Antisocial behavior is any behavior that causes or could cause alarm, harassment, or distress. It can include: Criminal and non-criminal behavior Such as threatening, harassing, or unruly behavior, drunkenness, loitering in public spaces, drug use, vandalism, graffiti, fly-tipping, and littering Noise nuisance Such as playing loud music, letting your dog bark all night, or vacuuming at 2 AM Neighbor disputes Such as boundary and parking disputes Animal problems Such as uncontrolled animals, stray dogs, barking, fouling, and intimidation by an animal Street drinking Such as unlicensed drinking in public spaces, unplanned and spontaneous parties, and activity relating to sex workers or sex working Fireworks Such as inappropriate use of fireworks, unlawful sale or possession of fireworks, and noise created by fireworks

[@JJ-of1ir]

Every car over three years old has to have an annual MOT certificate, issued by an authorised MOT Garage. Also the car has to be Taxed annually to allow it on the road and the driver MUST have motor insurance which protects other road users. Without any of those things it cannot sit 'on the highway'.

I like it when you go and search out an answer to a question you had when watching, similar to some other streamers doing live research, it makes your videos more than just watching and reacting and could mean you branch out into any different topics as its a sort of learn along with me kinda deal?

Antisocial behavior (ASB) is a broad term that describes actions that harm others or violate their rights. It can include: Criminal activities, such as stealing or physical assault Noncriminal behaviors, such as lying or manipulation Harassment Behavior that puts others at risk Vandalism Loud and ongoing noise Pets being a nuisance Verbal abuse Threats to the health and safety of a person Indecent exposure

[@Ayns.L14A]

hey Connor, in the UK if your vehicle is not taxed and insured it has to be removed from the street, if you do not have a garage or driveway to park the vehicle on the police can remove it ...

[@ZoeJ46]

Happy to translate the Yorkshire accent for you 😂. Often letters are dropped or words substituted. Probably the most well known one is “ey up” is used as a greeting & using “t’” instead of “the” Killingbeck Police Station (in Leeds, largest city in West Yorkshire) as said in the video is in the middle of 5 housing estates (nearer the centre of Leeds is full of them) where crime rates are high, usually the kids grow up exposed to crime & antisocial behaviour & they generally follow 2 paths. The first is down the crime route, starting with low school attendance as they’re out on the streets or the total opposite & work their arses off to do well in school, get a good education & then career so they can move out of the area. It’s sad really but am sure it’s no different in other areas & countries. The neighbourhood policing teams were set up to bridge the gap between the streets & the police. In an ideal world this helps reduce the crime rate. Hope this helps a bit.

[@timglennon6814]

Conner, from 38:20 to the end of the video there was no audio.

[@alexradojkovic9671]

22:50... It's illegal to have your unregistered vehicle parked on a public road in Australia. Probably the same in the old dart. You have to keep it on private property.

[@Enhancedlies]

In England and Wales, anti-social behaviour is defined as conduct that causes or is likely to cause harassment, alarm, or distress to individuals not of the same household as the perpetrator. This includes actions such as threatening behaviour, vandalism, and public drunkenness. The Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 consolidates various powers to address such behaviour, including civil injunctions and criminal behaviour orders.

[@keithparker5125]

Swearing in public is a 'public order offence' and yes, you can be locked up for it! Normally you initially receive a warning not to do it but persist and eventually the officer's patience will be exhausted and you will be given a free taxi ride to the local 'nick' (police station). We also have a unique law called 'joint enterprise' under which if you go with friends whom you you know will be committing a crime, if they commit said crime you can also be charged for the same crime even if you are innocent of committing it - a law that is often forgotten about!

[@tonybaker55]

It is Killingbeck an area to the east of Leeds city. Very few people can understand a broad Leeds accent, so don't feel bad, as I struggle too and I once went out with a girl from Leeds. Looking at the cars, this was about 25-30 years ago.

[@Ayns.L14A]

Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 20141 In this Part “anti-social behaviour” means- (a)conduct that has caused, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to any person, (b)conduct capable of causing nuisance or annoyance to a person in relation to that person's occupation of residential premises, or (c)conduct capable of causing housing-related nuisance or annoyance to any person.

[@timglennon6814]

The car taken in clip 23:02, was taken by the Police because it had no Tax or Insurance. In the U.K. if any vehicle has no Tax or no Insurance or hasn’t got both, then the Police have the vehicle taken away to the Police compound, or even crushed.

[@Snarnler]

Very weird. I worked at Killingbeck but it was called Gipton then. In the 70s and 80s it was very poor. I worked as community constable in Halton Moor and knew all the local kids. The police are having to go back to communities. Talk to people and it makes police work easier. Get to know the "usual suspects" and learn mo and you can pull their legs and I got them to clean graffiti. I love being a community copper

[@paulknox999]

no car tax, no insurance, no mot, no number plates and the car is parked on a public road. If you want to keep a car like that you have to keep it on private land, declare it as offroad and never drive it.

[@R3ED3R]

Every time i've been arrested the police have been nothing but respectful... so I returned that respect. Because I was cooperating they never used force and it was often resolved fairly quickly.. that being said if you end up getting taken to a cell you should expect to spend the night there..

[@Enhancedlies]

In the United Kingdom, while swearing per se is not illegal, it can lead to arrest if it's deemed to cause harassment, alarm, or distress to others. This falls under the Public Order Act 1986, where using threatening, abusive, or insulting words in public can lead to legal action if they disturb the peace or threaten public order. we do live in a kind of dystopian hellscape i wont lie

[@_Professor_Oak]

22:50 no tax or insurance, he should've put it in a garage or something. He was keeping it in a public place, which requires tax and insurance.

[@timglennon6814]

Glue sniffing was a thing back in the 1980’s in the U.K. I can’t believe the kids of today are doing it.

[@malcspencer8786]

Tim also gas sniffing is bad...its were they inhale the gas through mouth...also monkey dust is a big problem which gives the person a high...kids these days are board,not saying it's an excuse but its true ...police are trying but the UK don't have lots of police like usa... there under staffed and under paid compared to the usa....connor

[@timglennon6814]

@@malcspencer8786. I know that our Police haven’t the resources. My brother in law he’s a Cop in Blackpool Fylde. Back in the 80’s people also used to sniff butane gas for cigarette lighter’s, correction fluid (Tipex) deodorant and nail varnish. Until the late 80’s then House and Rave music came out, and then people switched to Wizz/Speed Acid Tabs and Ecstasy pills came onto the streets.

[@captaincorky237]

Seriously man, if you are with a bunch of guys who do something bad - that is a 'joint enterprise'. Not only can you get charged - but years ago - you could also get HANGED. The law still stands.

[@enemde3025]

17 years old and has been caught for 24 CAR CRIMES and never been in prison for it !! He got 60 hours community service ! Picking up litter etc . In America he'd have been locked up straight away...for years ! This is a very old video. Glue is not the " drug" of choice anymore in the UK. The car was on a public road. It had no number plates. It wasn't taxed, insured or a valid M.O.T. certificate. You need all these things to legally have the car on a public road. Shouting in the street is considered ANTI SOCIAL behaviour. It doesn't have to be a REPEAT offence. You can be arrested for just doing it once . If you are told to leave an area by police and don't go , you can be arrested under Section 12 of the Public Order Act. Failure to disperse. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SOUND AT THE END !!!??? (FYI. Trespass is not criminal offence in the UK.) (You getting arrested for trespass in the USA.)

[@jonathangoll2918]

A comment or two. Another commenter is probably right in saying that this all took place twenty years ago. At that time ASBOs (Anti-Social Behaviour Orders) were the big thing. I don't live in Yorkshire, but it might be helpful for you to know a bit of Yorkshire: 'owt' means 'anything', 'nowt' means 'nothing'; and there's a tendency to abbreviate 'the' to 't', or even nothing. I think the car may have been towed away because it was physically on the road without insurance. I understand you can be all right from glue-sniffing, or you can suddenly die...

[@kathransom4958]

It was not taxed or insured. Not allowed on road

[@cpnlsn88]

You are really struggling with the accent here. British people can tune in and understand but I think non-Brits will have difficulty tuning in.

[@danielferguson3784]

Using abusive language, swearing, in public, & addressing it to a person is an offence in the UK. The right to free speech in the UK does not extend to being able to say anything you like, if it is abusive. Repeatedly swearing at police officers will get you arrested. Cars in the UK must be insured, & have an up to date road tax & MOT certificate to be on a public road. If a car is not legal for road use it must be kept off the road, but may stay on private land. Anti social behaviour is anything that disrupts normal life to the annoyance or harm of the other people around. So noise in the street, loud music, messing up the area or making a nuisance of yourselves may clash as this. Hanging around in gangs on the street, intimidating people, including street drug dealing, pimping for prostitution, & any number of fairly small, but annoying, behaviour can become anti social, & an offence. In the US curfuwes are often imposed on young people to prevent this sort of group behaviour. We don't have these as a rule in the UK, but individual orders can be put on them.

[@cpnlsn88]

The car has no plates, tax, insurance or MOT. If the car is on the road it needs to be taxed, insured and MOT'd and have number plates. Failing this it is not roadworthy. Anti-social behaviour is low level criminality that damages the local area and makes people 's life a living hell.This can be drinking in public, intimidation, shouting abuse, grafitti and so on.

We don't have the 1st amendment in the UK, so swearing in public can be considered a crime such as 'a breach of the peace'.

when your car is impounded you have to pay for the towing charge then you pay a daily cost for them to store your car... so it could be 3 days it could cost you £240 to get your car back and you have to travel to them to pick it up.

We used to have coppers that walked around their local area our coppers used to be local people from that community which made policing very effective, however today's idea of policing is to take away local policing they don't walk the beat anymore they drive around and have very little ties with the community they are supposed to police, and please don't believe the propaganda this video you are watching is selling our police is becoming very much like American police they are getting jacked up on steroids so they already suffer with anger problems and they have what they believe is the right to treat people as sub human and get away with it , too many coppers not enough crime so they make stuff up so they can chalk up an arrest, we have lost our communities next our society and then our identity , scary.

[@R3ED3R]

unfortunately in the UK if you don't tax your car you have to put it on your property in some manor... like a driveway, though most homes don't have one in high populated areas you are expected to park on the road Infront of your property. But that is considered being on the road so you can be fined for not having tax or MOT even if you have not driven it... it's backwards. I am lucky i have a driveway but if i didn't i would not get rid of my car if i could not afford to run it for a year... and if i wasn't using it i wouldn't tax it.
