Drone or Jupiter?!

‘A rookie Scots police officer feared she was being pursued for miles by a drone – but the bright light in the sky was actually a planet. It was only after a drawn-out “pursuit” that she sought help from senior officers, who told her it was Jupiter – some 365 million miles away.’

Smokin’ or distillery tour before shift. Or possibly blonde

Can the police be prosecuted for wasting police time?
Makes also think where her mirrors were pointing whilst she’s driving?

I wish I was in her station, I see a few balloons getting tied to her belt

This reminds me of when I worked in air traffic some years ago, and took a low flying complaint from a woman who was convinced a SeaKing helicopter had been following her home.

I had to politely explain to her that because of low visibility, our helicopters used the road between the satellite airfield and the main site to navigate back.

I think she was a bit disappointed to not have a pilot stalker…
