So it's safe to say I'm not very good at this twitter thing!
So, all future tweets and appeals will be shared via the (recently neglected) @RuralCops account with the #3586, and this one will close.
Hopefully that'll allow for better engagement and more updates!!

@Hertz @SussexPolFed Perhaps a glitch in your website?

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

@Hertz @SussexPolFed Hi @Hertz, has this offer now been pulled?

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

And now for the thaw!

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

The A66 from Scotch Corner to. Brough is down to 1 lane in places due to the wind blowing the snow, but its passable with care thanks to @HighwaysNEAST
At least 5 ploughs currently working between the snow gates and Cumbria border

A1M very slow southbound through County Durham still, other routes starting to ease but still congested beyond normal traffic levels.
This is J59 (Aycliffe) to J58 (Burtree) currently.

@SheilaB70934144 @ClevelandPolice Haha thanks! I think 😂

Shoplifter detained after a (off duty) foot chase along Portrack Lane in Stockton when he fled from the shop I was walking into, sending people flying! Thanks to @ClevelandPolice for arriving so quickly to take him off my hands!! #RightPlaceRightTime

No matter the time of night, or the remoteness of the road, you still need to have a driving licence and insurance to drive your boyfriends car, and he (sat next you) should know that having only recently passed his test himself! Both reported and car seized.

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

The road has now reopened!
(and in 3hrs only one person asked if it was really closed!)

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

Elstob Lane (aka The Sedgefield Back Road) is currently closed between Race Course Road, Sedgefield and Great Stainton due to a serious accident. Please try to avoid this area!

I've just been sent to check the road at Dinsdale to see if the flooding is bad enough to warrant closing it.
I think that's a yes...

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

The driver of this broken down car on the Sedgefield back road didn't want the police to recover it for him last night, but it couldn't be left due to its dangerous position so he called his friends to help instead! #NeverSeenItAll

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

@llysiih Nice to have a busy one now and again! My last few have been pretty Q!!

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

Van, stolen yesterday, located after a call from an Eagle eyed local resident who thought something didn't seem quite right. Now recovered for a CSI exam so it can be returned to its owner!

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

I thought the days of stealing a car just to torch it were pretty much behind us, alas someone's pride and joy reduced to this overnight.
Now to try and identify it, to speed up someone's insurance claim process

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

This would be one to add to your list @ShaunfromDurham!

#OpGalileo Fleet Update

Phone call today...

“Hi, I’m calling to arrange delivery of your Raptor in January...”

That was a nice call to receive on Christmas Eve!

... and also requalified in car washing!

[Durham Constabulary Rural Cops @RuralCops]

This week one of the team spent a couple of days at the training centre renewing their pursuit qualification. We'll only look to pursue a car if we need to - but if we need to, we can and will! #3586

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

The driver of this car thought he probably had insurance, but checks with @DriveInsured and his bank confirmed he'd never got past the quote page of a comparison site.
You can check your own car at https://t.co/tguGpRLNmM if in doubt!

[Pete 3586 @Pete3586]

Where possible, avoid #Durham City Centre tonight, very heavy traffic on all roads leading to Milburngate Bridge, due to an emergency lane closure following a drain collapsing earlier!
