Anyone see a police chase with an SP-1?

Post by Shifty »

Just got an SMS, a guy I know has $1100 of fines:

142 in a 100 zone and then failing to stop... took three cars to get him in the end :shock:

Suggest you lads don't take your chances, always remember a radio is faster than a bike!

Well I have the full story now.

He was out on the open road and the actual speed he was doing was almost double that :shock: but he came over a crest and saw a car so he braked hard to be safe... as it turned out it was just as well... but he kept cruising about 140ish (actual ticket turned out to be 147) so the car got him with the side mounted radar.

They flashed their high beams at him as he went past (had then slowed to 100) but the lights didn't go on so he didn't think anything of it and was counting his blessings. Two minutes later a cop car came belting out of a side road and another over the crest of the approaching hill, then the original one came flying up behind. Poor guy didn't even know he was being chased!!! :oops:
