Been pulled over once Rog, was ticketed etc but got off.
Got given the fingers by a cop out Miranda way one other time..(he was heading the other way)
...and I think a female cop waved at me just south of Tokoroa, I am sure it was a wave....:innocent:
One other time, sitting on about 130 just before the Bombays heading north, over a slight rise and theres a cop heading the other way (maybe that same toss from Miranda)...I checked the mirrors and saw his break lights come on. I think I increased the speed a tad once on the incline and when I got to the servo' Anne asked if I needed to go to the toilet?....

I never get let off anything, mind you I look about 18, male and ride a sports bike.

The policemans quota trifecta, but I do not worry myself with these things as I'm happy to look 10 years younger than I am. No chance of passing attitude test no matter how polite I am.

You can't blame the police really, if I were a cop I'd be that prejudice aswell.
Hopefully at 40 I won't get tickets and get asked for I.D everywhere I go.

Something I missed there, your opinion about your encounters.
Obviously your pleased about not getting fines but is this how you think the police should be dealing with people exceeding speed limits, factoring everything else was legal (WOF,REG, Licence blah blah.) and your acceptance that you were in the wrong. Or is this to give people an idea about how to get let off tickets....

Spell check could be a good thing too btw.

Was a lucky bandit rider yesterday,cruising along at 119km,round a corner a cop wagon,just spied the car and must've got under tolerance or he didn't have radar on,then about 50km along a car was behind a milk tanker (could just see it)and I was doing 125km after a downhill piece and buttoning off,went passed tanker at 112km and was a cop car up the tankers' arse,no bloody 2 sec rule,but also the rig meant I may have been invisible to his radar,so 2 near misses,on a road where I've seen 5 or so cops during the year each week.

Brake lights do not consitute 'being followed by blue and red flashing lights'

Nor does 'the finger' - that could mean anything :)

I hate cresting a hill to see a 5-0 coming the other way.
