Fake cop caught in a Dacia mess on the highway

The police are looking for witnesses who may have seen the fake officer who was stopped on the Kalundborg motorway on Monday.

On Monday, the real police put an end to a 51-year-old man who, equipped with blue flashing lights, pretended to be a police officer.

Here drivers were lying in their messy Dacia, which has nothing to do with the police fleet, with flashing lights on the roof and harassing careless drivers.

This is what the Central and West Zealand Police write in a press release .

On the Kalundborg motorway near Holbæk, the 51-year-old fraudster is charged with trying to stop a van. But the police are looking for witnesses to similar incidents that may have happened across the country.

Something suggests that the man may have cards around and played police with blue flashing lights throughout Denmark. Law enforcement, the real one that is, also takes the matter very seriously.

– There are indications that this is not the first time that the driver has a card with a blue flash. Citizens who have experienced similar episodes or who have seen a messed up Dacia Logan with a blue flash in the windscreen are very welcome to call us.

– It is important that you can trust the authorities. So we look very seriously at cases involving fake police, says Police Commissioner Lars Galasz, who is head of the Traffic Department at the Central and West Zealand Police.

Unfortunately, this is far from the first time a motorist has pretended to be from the police to the detriment of others on the road.

In 2020, a then 18-year-old man impersonated a civil officer in a white Audi A4. He had equipped the car with blue flashing lights, including in the rear window.

The driver, who was later prosecuted and sentenced in the case, later chose to comment on a Facebook post Boosted had made about the case. Read more about it here .
