take caution

Post by zx2r001 »

Just home from work...Got nabbed doing 80k in a 60 zone...detected by radar at 315.6mts..I was breaking the line of traffic at the lights as i always do.As usual i backed off and continued as legal speed only to be pulled over by police in a mazda 3 280 mtrs up the road..The officer said, and this is no word of a lie "i hate bikes"..I accept the speeding ticket but i wonder if his feelings towards bike riders had anything to do with it.....

No..I was polite the hole time..He just dismissed me in a arrogant way.To be honest i was bloody suprised as i was not expecting to be pulled up...My bike has a digital speedo so i am always checking to make sure i am going legal speed.So from now on i will be especially careful when leaving from lights...

They've got a whole raft of sneaky-bastard (TM) vehicles up that way it seems.

What? at least people are out there raising awareness of the cheekiness shown by the enforcement in some other states rather than just sitting on their laurels goinf f*in this f*in that, f*in f*in f*in.

yeah, taking off from the lights or from a start i might go 10-15k over then go back to the speed limit, if he got you 300m away and saw you travel at the speed limit the whole way, thats pretty bastardly.
maybe a bike outrun his little mazda the day before and therefore hates us :roll:
Let the good times roll.
