The joys of doing a runner

[Oakie]

Heard on the news this morning that he was going at 120kph on the motorway. What's that ... a $120 fine? Must have thought he was going to be pinged for other behaviour surely!

Saw a glimpse briefly on the TV news update. http://www.3news.co.nz/Motorcyclist-...0/Default.aspx
Note the German Cross sticker on the tank. Could be an indicator.

He certainly wasn't doing 120 when I saw him, Fek why didn't he just pull over at 120 he'll even ride away with a ticket!!

Yeah, but let's face it, most of the ones like this that you hear about that wind up dead are harleys doing a runner.
So many of the sport bikes seem to get away with it. so the lesson isn't really don't do a runner, but a cautionary tale about why you shouldn't buy a Harley. They belong in paddocks towing plows, not trying to evade cops.

Think you might be ever so slightly miss informed young fella......actually i think you might be slightly RETARDED!

I like his style. I assume it's a he, the writer seems undecided? Anyway, he or she certainly knows how to get a reaction.

People have talked about decisions the rider made. The basic fight or flight response operates at a far more basic level than that.
Assuming the bike wasn't actually stolen, that Maltese cross could be an indication that this rider might have been predisposed not to stop, fancying himself as an "outlaw". Whatever, he won't do that again...

Goes to show that you don't know your dead until your dead

[Murray]

Of course it's not the cops fault, the PCA will tell us so.

What!! In 4 years time???

[vifferman]

Yup... Speed a factor obviously.....

Height too...
