In Sunderland, PC Martain Anderson is on the hunt for a van linked to drug dealing and organised crime. After spotting it on a roundabout in the city centre, Martain gets behind it. The van parks up, but as Martain approaches the vehicle, the driver makes a run for it. Martain gives chase: the driver can't run fast enough, and ends up in line of sight of Martain's Taser. A quick search of the van reveals why he was so desperate to get away. It's packed full of drugs!

PC Brian Camsell is on patrol around the streets of Newcastle when a misted-up car draws even more attention to itself when one of passengers cleans the window with two fingers! Brian spots the cheeky passenger isn't wearing a seatbelt either. Brian pulls over the car to discover three teenagers already in party mode heading to a festival. The driver is mortified that his mate has flicked the Vs to a passing police car… and crestfallen to discover the seatbelt offence as well. Luckily for him, Brian's in the mood for some stern words rather than a ticket.

Finally, in the early hours of the morning in Sunderland PC Will Hunter spots a white van whose driver he's sure is trying not to get noticed by the police. He tracks the vehicle to a housing estate and when he clocks the man behind the wheel Will recognises a repeat offender he's had previous with, a known disqualified driver. The driver doesn't take kindly to being stopped. Or being told the van appears to be stolen!

Outside Newcastle, PCs Jan Simlesa and Jamie Leslie are called to a multi-car pile-up on the busy A1, including a coach full of Newcastle United fans involved desperate to get to an away match in time. In rural Northumberland, Sgt Dave Roberts races to a crash between a car and a bicycle that is so severe that the vehicle has flipped onto its roof and the injured cyclist is being treated by paramedics.
