Did someone mention that if you're not breaking the law you don't have a problem..?

Hmmmm.... I suppose it has also occurred to said someone that we are all, all of us, in violation of some law or other most days*. There are to many laws passed to stay current with them all. And as for that "I'm OK As I Obey" attitude - whatcha gonna do when they pass a law that makes whatever you stand for illegal?

* I thought this was likely and checked Mr Google. There's a lot of scofflaws out there!

Anyone have any links for NZ specifically...?

A mate in france says they have mobile one's over there that can recognize up to 9 separate vehicles at once, and issue you with a speeding fine too. The first thing you know about it is the ticket in the mail.

Standard fit in traffic police vehicles in the UK.

I was first told about them 12 years ago on a police run training course (BikeSafe). Apparently one of the first people they nicked was a copper from their station - his bike had expired tax (rego). Automated system had no discretion so rather than a telling off and getting it sorted, he got a fixed penalty notice. Then again, not a lot of difference between a computer and NZ traffic police


The other thing to look forward to is number plate legislation, and fines of course;

"What could happen if you display incorrect number plates

The police can issue fixed penalty fines for illegally displayed number plates. Offenders could face a maximum fine of £1,000 and in some cases the number plate may be withdrawn.".

£1000 ($2000) for a dodgy number plate F.F.S.

Say goodbye to your clever personalised plate

If you are referring to the hand grenade attack in the UK that killed two unarmed police officers that is in extremely poor taste

You may not agree with the automation of camera fines but I don't agree with attacking police.

If you say something lame like "I wuz only joking" I would invite you to go take a flying fuck at a rolling donut.

Perhaps you belong back on the road forums

i think i need to stock up on hand grenades.

perhaps i give not a shit how you judge me and i'll partake of whate'er forum I decide for myself.

i was not, specifically referring to that.
nor did i mention attacking police
and if you'd actually grasped ANYTHING i've previously posted that should be fairly apparent.

i DO however, have no problem with re-arranging government property with high explosive., say, a camera van and a hand grenade....

(although i also feel very-little-to-no, sympathy toward police who are killed)

I am sorry to hear you say that. NZ police have always been reasonable with me, and very helpful at times.
I dare say they get a bit heavy sometimes, but perhaps you should sample some of the other varieties, eg Spanish, most Asian, African, Australian, or my personal favourite, the Indonesian Police.

A serious disagreement with Indonesian Police has been known to result in total disappearance. I have personally seen interrogation of the locals while looking for a thief by digging each in turn in the ribs with a cocked sub- machine gun. I found out what "whites of their eyes" actually means.

I remain fairly friendly with NZ & UK police, but pretty wary of most others.

Funny how those who keep whining about opting out or not choosing to be a part of society, are those who don't take the hint they should lead by example, starting right here

they have a fairly thankless job, it's unfortunate that it's become an "us and them" thing, however, they are often arrogant and ignorant, which is a dangerous mix when you get hated just for the gang patch you wear. and if in your arrogant ignorance you decide to overstep any authority you perceive yourself to have, and end up getting shot, my sympathies are not with you.
however they do CHOOSE that job. they are gainfully employed to enforce government policy, no-one had a gun to their head when they signed the contract.

that said, it's about 50/50 cops i deal with. some are perfectly reasonable people, and we all get on with our days, others are shit heads. and i write long green diatribe to their betters.

Here's an idea

as for Mr Undie Skidmark -

I haven't read anything that you've previously posted because you can't spell and write in green - those two things alone are warning signs that idiocy is probably present - much like a RAV 4 driver..

As for your line about wearing a patch I call bullshit - no serious gang I know of allows an owner of a Jappa GSX750 as a member.

Perhaps you left it deliberately ambiguous to try and look hard
Perhaps the patch that you wear was knitted by your mum

Either way, you sir

are

full

of

shit

Be grateful that you can write letters of complaint to their seniors & be fairly certain that you & your family will still wake up safe & sound the following few mornings. Be glad that it is even possible that a policeman (woman) might be reprimanded about your compaint!

get back to your play-doh buddy.

don't get me wrong, i am. but if i happened to be birthed somewhere like afghanistan, i'd be one packing an AK47 and riding a camel around, killing those who claim authority (americans).
it's a diffrent kind of fight for freedom.
