Waving to cops

[one fast tl1ooo]

The cops must love your Mr Whippy van. They'd be rude if they didn't wave back.

Does anyone else here do it?

Not trying to be a smart ass or nothing but today was riding along. Saw a cop ahead. Slowed down a tad and gave him a friendly wave. Was pleasantly surprised when he waved back at me. Tried again with the next plod I saw but no luck.

the 2nd one was proberley a Harley rider....

I waved my knickers at a cop in Barcelona but somehow I dont think that counts

that statement is no good unless it has a pic attached of said event.....

[Oakie]

Yeah. I give the bike cops a nod or a wave just like I do to any other biker. Four wheeled cops I'll give a wave to from time to time if I see them on the highway.

Wave at a cop and they'll think you're giving them the fingers!... good luck with that. Today I went out East... I got a waved at by a Harley rider! then got ignored by several sports bikes and a couple of dual sporters... and whats up with scooter riders.. they're fucken unfriendly! You'd think they'd be well pleased to have someone acknowledge them... Waving's over rated anyway.

Funny you say that I too have noticed that fewer people are waving these days. I wave to all - but lately, alot of other sportsbikers have not been reciprocal - very snobbish if you ask me. What happened to all bikers being happy and friendly to one another

Oooh shit. What have I done! Started another waving thread, What was i THINKING!

[Coldrider]

Nope, never wave to cops, but some have waved to me, their index finger pointing downwards repeatedly.

I don't wave to cops because they give me speeding tickets. I don't like them much. Having said that, if there was no one to enforce the speed limit there would be all sorts of knob-ends doing 200+kph, just because they could, and killing all sorts of innocent mot*e$fuck#rs. Like me.

And from what I've seen of an enforced 100kph limit I just hate to think what it would be like unenforced.

Also, I had to *555 a guy on Wednesday who couldn't keep left (I hate them all) and then overtook on the brow of a hill across a yellow line going into Murchison this week.

"Who you gonna' call, Knob-busters!" Someone has to police all the crazy shit that goes on. Otherwise it's mayhem and carnage and anarchy and blah, blah, blah........

[The Everlasting]

Nah,I would never wave to a cop,mainly cos it would get their attention on you etc...

[YellowDog]

I always wave to biker cops.

They may be cops but we are all two wheeled brothers on the public highway.

Fair call mate

SMOKEU, you can't have an avatar like that and then start waving to the two wheeled brotherhood of enforcers!

Dont stress, we can never have too many waving threads.
