The Fuzz, The Po-Po, The Coppas; PerthPolice have got the tough job of keeping us safe and making sure we don’t causeharm to ourselves or others. Don’t be fooled, they may be serious when it comesto the letter of the law; however, when it comes to 140 characters on Twitter,there’s just enough room for a little tongue-in-cheek. Here’s some of the topbanter our West Australian law enforcers have posted during just an average dayon the job.

New Year’s days can go one of two ways:with a new found spirit in your step at the #newyearnewme that’s about to takeplace or the alternative groggy wake up with the unmistakable feelings ofshame, regret and uncertainty over the level of embarrassing you reached lastnight. Murdoch Police were hoping NOT to see any of the latter offenders withthis post.
I don’t know about you, but when I’ve got astraightforward day of chores ahead I tend not to sweat it writing a list downfor the small stuff. However, during a drug raid in Perth’s South-West, onemember of the squad stumbled across a list that was definitely worth tweeting!I believe it was item no#10 on the occupant’s agenda that made his next stop anight in the joint. Don't mind the pun.

This regional police department may havewatched too many James Bond movies judging by the situation in this tweet. Theway they’re driving this boat is nothing less than a 007 worthy snap.
We’ve all been there, getting ready for anight out while trying our best to battle against the unforgiving WA heat andprevent the hair and makeup we spent two hours doing melting off our face! Forthis driver it was a similar situation - I'd like to present to you the case ofthe #sweatybackattack. Unfortunately, this is not an adequate excuse not tobuckle up. Could you justify a $500 fine to avoid little back trickle?

Driving in the Perth CBD can be stressfulat the best of times. There’s always unexpected roadworks, traffic jams,aggressively merging buses and nonchalant pedestrians who are less concernedfor their own welfare than they are about being late for work. These roadhazards are all the more dangerous when driving under the influence. PerthPolice were quick to point out a few errors in judgement this L-Plater wasunfortunate enough to make.
