Motorcyclist hits 200kmh on State Highway 1

[Katman]

Otherwise if you've got nothing useful to say why dont you just shut up....

You've got a big mouth on you, haven't you.

I find it lolable when pissy little fucks think they can win an internet argument by telling someone else to "shut up".

How old are you?

[Coldrider]

You know what would be realy useful...if you actualy contributed to the discussion and clarified shit like this once in a while, being public servant and all...
to be honest i dont give rats ass if its 35 or 40 or whatever...as its likely going to change again to suit some retarded "road safety" policy/revenue gathering.


Otherwise if you've got nothing useful to say why dont you just shut up....It's a no win situation, if you know your rights you fail the attitude test, but it's best to be able to taken actions to the nth of the law.

[bogan]

You've got a big mouth on you, haven't you.


getting jealous bro?


I find it lolable when pissy little fucks think they can win an internet argument by telling someone else to "shut up".


I think it lolable that someone considers this an argument! I wish it were, might prove insightful.

[miloking]

Well every time I post what you consider is innacurate/opposing your view etc YOU try to bag me..:nya:...so there!

And I don't give a fat rats as if it's 35 or 40 or whatever...so we agree on something.

i didnt post fact...thats why i said "pretty sure" also iam happy to admit iam wrong....BUT at least i was trying to answer the question!
I try to bag you...and your cop cocksucker mates, Katman, Red mermaid etc. only because instead of being useful by actualy clarifying shit you should know as its your job all you do is just argue and take piss.
(i must say you are not as bad as some but still could be less of a dick)

to the rest of you fuckers:

All you cop MOFOs do is troll and abuse people that pay your wages....so yeah go fuck yourselves!

Not big enough....also glad i entertained your "majesty" by telling someone fucking else to shut up, Why the fuck are you even responding to this??

Travelling SH1 today i saw a 999 with a horrid sounding pipe doing a rather fast run (i estimate a good 180kmh) heading North at Manakau passing a truck well on my side of the double yellows . Plain coloured helmet , as already said , a really horrible sounding exhaust and then i saw why he was riding like he was , ..... a Highway Patrol car with lights and sirens hammering it to try and catch up. The bike had a Dealer yellow plate on and this dude was just a fool with what i saw. I hope he is not going to make a habit of riding the same strech of highway like he seems to be doing as im sure the Police will do whats needed to take this guy of the road.
Seriously folks , i like to ride fast but this guy was doing no favours to any of us and i applaude the Police in thier desire to see him stopped.

A ducati with a horrible sounding exhaust?? Didn't know there was such a thing..... Well it wasn't my 999 (and I have a plain helmet too). Best I stay off SH1 for a while just in case they are after any red 999... Have to ride to Hamilton on Thursday...might go SH2 instead now.

[98tls]

:doobey:Saw the thread title a few days back and thought na wont bother,finally gave in and yep pretty much as i predicted.No work for me in the morning so lets go,ive got a box of bourbon.........entertain me.:Punk:

[HenryDorsetCase]

I find the best one is "You're a public servant, I'm a member of the public, get me a glass of water!"

No. You go and fuck yourself.

Whereas others use the fact they're not cops to do the same.

[Kittyhawk]

Thats OK my keyboard is one of those water resistant ones, please post away. Or you could always PM them.

Pm sent....lol


so my point is if cops werent such a dicks to me each time i did something little bit wrong i wouldnt be even contemplating these options
The secret in this country is to show the cops your cleavage, the bigger the cleavage it is the lesser the fine, well in your case it'd have to be your moobs. Or just have a pack of dounts handy...:sick:

[Doughnut]

Actually i don't think that's correct. i got nailed at 150 last Feb and only got instant suspension for 28 days, had to push my bike home (yeah right, daughter trailered me home), 50 demerit points, and a $630 fine - I was on zero points so i was mobile again in 28 days. And a buddy of mine just got done for 155 last month (he's a member here but i won't mention his name), and he got 28 days suspension, had to push his bike home, a court appearance where he was fined about $800, and the demerits took him over the 100 so he automatically lost his licence for 3 months on top od the 28 days - but the beak didn't actually award him any additional suspension time.


Thanks nice to no I have just brought a bike after long time not riding and last thursday went for a ride up to wakworth and back and once I got throught tunnel could'nt resist urge to give it a little and got caught at 152k's only had bike for 4 days. mandatory 28 day suspension and court to come. No demerits until this, but any advice how to not lose licence would be awesome. Need it to go back and forth to take boy to starship. And to work

[blackdog]

haha unfortunately i dont have man boobs...maybe i need to hit the gym and build up some manly pecs (or whatever turns these traffic officers on :D)...or second option to avoid getting tickets is driving this...

2001 kawasaki 750...ZR7? Why did you even bothered pulling over?....Unless its a 750 Vulcan in which case you had no other options :D

BTW if you have clean slate i think this should be only 50 points so you get to keep licence unless they add some "dangerous/reckless" driving charge (because 152 on big wide empty road is just a madness i tell you!!!!)

BUT dont take this as KB fact, maybe one of our almighty resident policemen will clarify this for us....(before the avalange of trolling appears)

[Toaster]

Avalange? Is that a technical term used by muppets that think they are better than everybody else and above the law?

[Bad Gixxer]

Mu buddy was lucky and got a JP that was into bikes (acccording to the court solicitor). he also prepared a three page statement that explained that he wasn't a lunatic (very debatable), that he had had a good driving record and that most of the 36 offences in the past were minor speeding offences (that got a real laugh from the JP according to him), and that he needed mobility for his work and that if he were to lose his licence for more than the 3 months that the demerit points gave him, then his livelihood would be in real japourdy.

Good luck, maybe you'll just get the fine and the points!!

[Doughnut]

Cheers Mking BG..Are expecting some harsh feedback abuse etc but hey... 750 zr7-s not that i no to much about em had previously had xj750 shaft drive then a honda boldor but that was ten years ago +. Just liked the look of this one. Why pull over definately do not have big enough balls or ballbags for that matter to run. Officer had a fast car to, even had spoilers!!. He did say hes only doing me for speeding, although citizens advive lawyer tells me, that speed is automatic dangerous driving. Thanks for response.. Vulcan? is'nt that star trek :)

[miloking]

Avalange? Is that a technical term used by muppets that think they are better than everybody else and above the law?

You just proved my point mate :D

BTW yeah avalange is just like avalanche ...only its spelt diferent.

AND there is not such a thing as "LAW" (or "rights" for that matter)...its just a construct created by humans in power to enslave people like you and me into obedience (or to give us illusion of "choice")

so yeah fuck your law i didnt agree to it so why should it bother me....

(also i never said iam better then anybody else...)

[miloking]

Well, fingers crossed that they only slap you with 50 points and 28 suspension (and some $$$ for dougnut fund) easpecialy if you have clean slate .... when is your DC appearance?

BTW ZR7-s is definately thing you can run on, but if you have a family to look after...i understand your choice :) (and those new holdens do look intimidating, shame we paid for them from our taxes)

[Doughnut]

..still waiting for summons to arrive maybe someone lost my file ?!

[miloking]

..still waiting for summons to arrive maybe someone lost my file ?!

It takes about month for papers to arrive...and then its usualy scheduled for another month+ from the date, so in theory you have 2 months to come up with something...hopefuly its at least that long so you can look into getting provisional licence to get to work and kids from school etc. if they suspend you for 3 or 6 months (limited licence costs about $600 from lawyer but if you get documents yourself its only $150 lodging fee at the court) also you should be elegible since its not DUI offence and you didnt drive while disqulified

Well dont get me wrong ...i would never intentionaly hurt someone, or take something that doesnt belong to me but i dont need LAW to tell me that, i have common sense and integrity.

But the "law" we are talking about here is merely about income for establishment

[Rogue Rider]

Wish New Zealand had at least one piece of road with open speed limit, it would probably be the most money gathering toll road in the world...... I'd travel to ride it, and pay.........
An autobahn road would be just the ticket to making new zealand roads safer. People just want to gun it now and again without having to gap it from the law. Lets be honest, if your doing over 140, you might as well gap it, it's futile but I do know of a few that escape the law with their lisences. Sad it comes to that really, but I know I've been tempted...... There are heaps of nooks and crannies to hide in, as long as it's not dark and the eagle isn't out.....

Looking at your profile you profess to be a christian and are part of the seed of Abraham MC etc.... so how does doing runners from the police and willingly breaking the law sit with your faith that should be compelling you to live an honest upright life?

Don't like those laws ... live someplace ELSE ...

I do thank you for your sentiment tho... I recon Jesus would ride a Triumph and he would ride fast with full open throttle........

I thought he rode a donkey..... Maybe by today's standards that would be something that is slow, difficult to start and when it does it takes off on its own direction!

I had a car like that once...

[Spearfish]

Maybe those hideous photos/videos that SCU take of the dead and dying after a crash should be part of the punishment for those wankers with so little value for others or themselves or worse even the affect their own death will have on immediate family. Family's are affected for years and years, kids especially.
At the funeral mates will go sullen, look at the ground a lot, see the wife/kids destroyed by what's nothing more than weak selfishness, think about their own near misses and think about not wanting to do that to their own wives/kids etc...until the next ride or some time well into it, "oh fuck that was close must remember ___________ next time on that bit"...
Save it for a track, if that's not enough man up and go work(?) with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Apiata for a month, at least they will be fucked up, off the bikers ACC account and the kids have a hero to look up to rather than a dip-shit with no self control.

That is NOT what you said ...

There is a BIG difference in "90% of the population" thinking it's a stupid law ... and those just YOU find stupid ( .4,000,000 % ??? ... )

huh? i was only responding to this:


'Stupid' laws?
The ones that 90%+ of NZs population thinks are stupid?


and you sure agree i cannot speak for 90% of population..i can only speak for myself. (So yeah 0.000,022894 % of population of NZ or thereabouts)

so as i said YES YOU ARE RIGHT thats what i said!

[miloking]

i don't think you know what you're saying half the time........

might be best to have a wee rest and come back when you're sober

So iam back after my wee bit of rest and....I know exactly what iam saying but you guys seem to know more about it.

What can i say...I am wrong and you are right.
And i promise tomorrow i will buy hyosung and will only ride at 50km/h (just so my high speed riding doesnt kill the baby foxes),
Will obey ALL the laws (even the stupid ones) and pay ALL my taxes, recycle all the bottles and be a good citizen because goverment says so and goverment just like you is ALWAYS right!
"the end"

[Hinny]

And I reckon driving on the right-hand side of the road is the way to go, suits my left-hand drive Thunderbird, stuff that stupid 'drive on the left' law.....

I loved driving my left hand drive wagon on the left hand side of the road.
So convenient getting out on to the pavement rather than on the road side.
Cool to stop and talk to people on the side of the road, to other motorists etc.
And it's good to be different; as you should well know!

[Hinny]

I wonder what the forum members would have to say about the guy who complained to McLaren that his car had developed a miss at 200mph (324kph). When asked how often he went 200mph he replied "every morning on the way to work".
They thought he was joking but when their technician plugged the car in and downloaded the telemetry they found that indeed, every morning on the way to work, he was hitting 200mph.

And spewing when piss-crook from that is waaay easier, except the 200mm wide doors on the Thunderbids make it a tad of a mission....SOMEBODY has to wash down the doors next day...

As long as he waved, was wearing ATGATT, and had upside down forks.......he'll be forgiven.

Yeah that one was for you mate.:lol:

ALL Laws are inconvenient but some things are common sense and also happen to be a law, and yes i ignore the ones that are actualy stupid... and should not be laws at all!

Goverment creates these "laws" for their own benefit so how does petitioning them going to help anything?

So - how do you feel about the law that says one should indicate when one is turning or changing lanes/direction..?

I beleive you feel that one is stupid...?

Or is it just stupid on that occasion you were stopped and ticketed for it..?

[miloking]

No i dont think that law (law or rule..whatever) you gave as example is stupid at all!

I did not say ALL laws are stupid i said ALL laws are inconvenient for someone out there ....for me inconvenience is speeding law (because i know how to ride at ..shock horror 123km/h), and for people that like to smack their children its "anti-smacking law" for wife beater its "assault" law (i guess also anti-smacking)... those laws are not inconvenience to me tho because iam not planning on breaking them! (but one is stupid and one isnt...try to guess which one)

so yeah the point iam again making is.. some are laws are stupid (like speeding one) and some are not!

[Toaster]

Yeah well, inconvenience aside, the law can only be one for all, rather than some for the capable and others for muppets.

I would personally like to see bikes be allowed another 20km/h on open roads but alas the cotton wool hug a tree brigade would never let that happen.

You see and thats where police discretion should come into play....i know its not fair that we should be treated differently but it should be common sense that i can corner/brake better than some "people mover" made in 90's so maybe giving us(bikers) some slack in regards to speed would be nice..however i do have speeding ticket for 61Km/h and i think thats just retarded!

[red mermaid]

Mmmm, so are you suggesting that when Police stop any person for speeding they should then conduct a competency test on that persons driving to see if they are capable of driving at whatever speed they were traveling at?

Come on, get real...

"Good morning driver, I have checked your speed at 61 km/h, I am now going to conduct a competency test on your driving ability that will take 30 minutes, please wait here."

Or perhaps the police officer could just take the drivers word for it that they are a competent driver, yeah right!

As if, get real and start living in the real world.

think he was suggesting you guys apply discretion, ie a motorist doing 65k in a 50k zone just before the edge of town where there are clear verges and visibility for 8m either side of the road is probably safer than someone doing 50 net to a footpath full of people right?

[peasea]

I think that coz I've got a modern V8, that handles well and stops well, that I too should get some 20kph slack, or even 16kph slack come to think of it. Didn't get it last Christmas though, fuck it.

Tend to agree. I, for instance, don't have any issues with the school zones, little buggers can leap out from anywhere. 50kph in those areas is too fast but 61 on the edge of town? So what? maybe a bit of finger-wagging might have the desired effect, a ticket will just creat animosity and this is where the problems arise. No fucking discretion! It's all about the quota, the money and to hell with everything else. No wonder we have such arseholes in the police, half-decent folk wouldn't want the job.

[red mermaid]

No mention here of "edge of town" or "8 metre clear verges."

same theory applies though dunnit? that you can stop safely before hitting whatever may jump out in front of you.

One small detail being that the route to work included the autobahn.

[miloking]

it just goes to show that you have no idea what "discretion" is!

I dont need to mention all the possible scenarios like time/visbility/vehicle type/location/type of road vs speed...that should be your judgement!

But all you do is like fucking brain washed sheep follow the retarded speed kills song!

This is for all of you police guys reading this (red mermaid made me realize you probably dont know this word and thats why we have all these problems)

Noun: discretion di'skre-shun
1.Freedom to act or judge on one's own

And new word on tomorrows sesame street is going to be...integrity...

[rustic101]

A number of International Royal Commissions have found a direct link between Corruption and Discretion - The more Discretion the less there is of Corruption.

P.S do not link that to Quotas; I was just putting a fact out there, o and NZP only have Targets ;)

[miloking]

Oh, the irony.

And while we are at it, looks like a non-english native speaker needs to teach our police meaning of some words....

Adverb
out of context

1. Without context that is needed for understanding the original meaning.
They took his statements out of context and made him sound like an extremist

[Hinny]

I had a cop use discretion.
He reckoned I was riding at 146kph in an 80kph zone. He didn't stop me as he used his discretion and decided "You weren't riding dangerously, you were just riding fast".(quote) Continued to use that discretion whilst following me for the next 39 kms. He decided to stop using it three weeks later after reading some of my KB posts. Came and saw me at 10.30pm and plucked my licence from me.

[Patrick]

Perhaps he did use his discretion and thought 61 near all those kiddies was too fast...?

And for what its worth... I don't do 61. I did once but it was so strange I cancelled it......

[Hinny]

Tell me Patrick, is there any truth in the news story that your Boss wants his boys and girls climbing trees to catch speeding motorists?
Are you going to do it or use your discretion and recognise that he is an incompetent nincompoop and ignore any such directive.

PS. Has no one pointed out to him yet the 'Speed Kills' policy kills people? Or is he such a belligerent, one-eyed, brain-washed, half-witted, dick-wad that he ignores the evidence that shows this to be true?

[Hinny]

Hey, you going o go to the KB rally at Turangi?

1. Directive? = Nope.
2. Am I going to do it? = Nope.... the fun Police might come along and arrest me. Tree climbing is way too dangerous.....
3. He is actually a bright sort. You don't get to the top being an incompetent nincompoop.....
4. Ignore any such directive - probably. I still have discretion.
5. The speed kills policy. You see it your way. I see it mine. I am sick of picking up the pieces, of dumb arses who think they are excellent drivers, who fall off the roads or slam into others, because they are incompetent nincompoops.........

They're not allowed an extra 20kph?? Oh, right, that explains the extra attention lately...

I see the 10 km/h tolerance is now 4km/h according to the paper the other day..... oh joy, oh well, more track days needed!

of course.. our friendly insurance companies will either up your excess to some rediculous level or simply refuse to insure you. Keep it on the streets and keep yourself covered. Obviously, insurance ompanies have studied the facts, and taking your bike to a racetrack increases your chance of wrecking it 10 fold.
