Default Aussie Cops take to Facebook to stop speeders.

These days there's all sorts of ways people "shame" others on the interwebs. There's body shaming, parent shaming, and even kink shaming but the police from Down Under are now speed shaming. The New South Wales Police Force are now taking to Facebook to shame those who have been caught speeding while neither mentioning names or license plates and most of them are quite clever.

British police in I think Lincolnshire get advanced driving training.

They use - Gran Turismo.



Not that there are no far more advanced car physics sets out there like Assetto Corsa and the likes...

Dont get me wrong, I like Gran Turismo, but I like it for what it is, a console arcade racer, and just yesterday released: the new version 7. It is a lot of fun. But police trainign - with this arcade racer game?

Assetto Corsa. rFactor2. iRacing. Raceroom. They all are different, but all of them have more advanced physics, than GT.

The news said that some police officers even benefitted from the "training". Well, that is somewhat worrying, isn't it? LOL
