Officers from the Central Motorway Police Group target cable thieves, a crime that is costing the country more than £1 billion each year and causing chaos to Britain's transport system.
Nowadays, when the lights go out on the motorway, it is not just a cost cutting exercise; more often than not, it is because a group of organised metal thieves after the copper cables carrying the electricity to the motorway have struck.
The price of copper and precious metal has reached such levels that five hundred metres of cable stolen from the motorway central reservation is worth about £50,000.

Grupari de tigani romani, suspectati de furt de cablu din sistemul de autostrazi, sunt arestati in UK aproape zilnic. Politistii britanici urmaresc hotii de cabluri si metal, aceste infractiuni costand industria din Marea Britanie peste un miliard de lire sterline in fiecare an si cauzand haos in sistemul de transport.
Preturile metalelor precum cupru au ajuns la nivele record, 500 de metri de cablu furat din sistemul de autostrazi valorand aproximativ £50,000.
Povestile despre cat de usor si cat de repede se pot imbogati in tarile vestice, nu doar in Marea Britanie, sunt adeseori doar... povesti. Speranta si dorinta de a trai mai bine nu le o poate acuza nimeni, insa mijloacele sunt departe de orice gand civilizat.
