An unmarked police car has been captured on camera stalking a busy intersection before pouncing on an unsuspecting motorist for breaking a simple road rule.
The blue Chrysler 300 SRT police vehicle circled the intersection in Sydney three times until he busted a driver for ignoring a no right turn sign.
‘This guy has been waiting like a hawk to get everyone’, said the onlooker who filmed the cunning antics.
The highway patrol vehicle first tailed a silver Toyota Corolla hatchback waiting for the driver to do an illegal turn.

‘Not today d***head’, said the onlooker behind the camera a the driver indicates to turn left, forcing the officer to do another loop.
Not to be disappointed, the police car returns to the intersection a second time to pursue a white van.
‘They’re onto you d***head. Another one got away!’, the man behind the camera says, as the driver of the van also turns left.
Finally, the officer’s persistence pays off as a driver of a dark grey hatchback disobeys the sign and turns right.
The police vehicle immediately shoots forward and pulls the unlucky motorist over while a caption on the video reads ‘Third time lucky, he finally got one’.

A spokesperson from NSW Police said the vehicle appeared to be an unmarked police car conducting normal traffic duties.
This is not the first time an unmarked police car has caught motorists off guard.
The well-placed undercover vehicle is seen circling a particularly tiresome intersection, waiting for a driver to disobey a no right turn sign
In April 2020, a traffic cop was filmed handing out seven fines in just 45 minutes to Newcastle motorists who didn’t come to a complete halt at a stop sign.
Footage from a window overlooking the quiet stretch of road captured the undercover vehicle pursuing and pulling over two cars for not stopping.
The police car could be seen perched metres away from the stop sign and flagging down motorists with its siren when they drove through the intersection.
The operation at the junction of Watt Street and Church Street took place directly in front of the Newcastle Police Station.
Not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign is punishable by a fine of $344 in New South Wales and the deduction of three demerit points.
