Radio presenter Chris Evans pulled over a police car on his way home from work, he said yesterday.
The Radio 2 DJ, who was driving behind a marked police car, noticed its blue lights were flashing but said the vehicle did not appear to be responding to an emergency.
The presenter, who trailed the car for about two miles, eventually drew alongside it and signalled for its driver to pull over.
Evans said the "surprised" officer thanked him, admitting he had forgotten to turn his lights off.
42-year-old Evans told the story in his BBC Radio 2 blog.
The Daily Telegraph website said Evans was believed to have stopped the officer on the A40 dual carriageway while driving to his Surrey home from London, on Wednesday.
Thames Valley police said they were unaware of the incident.
