    It was an R32 street legal that was used on the track

    No Hicas
    No ABS
    etc

    Not 100% if he still has p/s installed

    Also he has alot of track time and 10years of driving expirence was just one of those things where he couldnt get it to stop.

    Also in regards to fighting the system I fought a charge for over 2years and still lost it was a case of there word against mine

    In order to fight the charge you need time and money to do it. The guy im talking about didnt bother fighting it as he couldnt afford a lawyer and couldnt get more time off work.

    Shit happens sometimes it doesnt matter how good you are at driving you'll still have an accident

    There is a spooky correlation between those who stay entirely on their own side of the road and those who don't get tickets for not keeping left.

    Am I starting to see a pattern? Don't speed, don't get a speeding ticket. Wear your seatbelt, you won't get a seatbelt ticket. Don't park illegally, you won't get a parking ticket.

    Amazing coincidence?

    Well those 2 are bullshit from the start I've been done for both without breaking either (at the occasion they were given), also had a pink sticker on a perfectly fine & road legal bike, & had my keys taken for "skids" which never happened, tires were not hot & the car was not capable of it*.
    They've also attempted claiming many a problems with my vehicles/driving over my younger years it seems they had an obligation to pull over any young driver & charge them with something regardless if how false it was... Got off a few because of entrapment & other "tricks" the PIGs liked to use
    Most of this happened when I was ignorant of the law, I learnt me a bit & they tended to end the harassment early after that, unless they had something concrete like my ongoing lack of Rego (not such an issue in my older years I can afford it now)

    I just don't get it! In my 42 years on the road, I've had one $1.50 parking ticket about 30 years ago, and you know what? It was for illegal parking, of all things!!!

    I've had one speed camera fine about 20 years ago, or around the time they first came into play, and again, it was for exceeding the speed limit!!! 61km/h in a 50km/h zone. I have also had one cop pull me over for speeding, doing 112km/h in a 100km/h zone!!!

    What gives??? Why haven't I been targetted when I've been driving/riding legally????

    I dont dispute that fact. Being in the correct (left) lane can be dangerous too. My argument is that a rapist will still ticket an individual regardless of the circumstances, safe or not. And lets not even go with what they are ticketing people for, if they were to be stricter on the more basic driving skills, keep left unless passing, using an indicator etc, the standard of driving may improve.
    FINE. This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

    You were a teen/young driver before the PIG oppression started up in the early 90's. As I've gotten older the harassment from NZ's biggest gang has subsided with no change in my driving to instigate said subsidence.

    Don't get me wrong they didn't all run oppression for their gang & Govt. Had 1 possibly 2 that were reasonable/respectable & Mr Cat seems to be old school in his ways too. But most I dealt with were wankers & before anyone starts, my attitude had nothing to do with it. I'd always keep my mouth shut until the PIG had set the tone for the encounter then I would simply replicate in kind, sure might not have helped things but it certainly didn't hinder them either. Did provide a laugh on occasions, especially when you get a PIG who thinks his position gives him power & superiority

    I give as good as I get Do unto others as they do unto you. Most cops I have dealt with have been bloody good buggers, even after doing some really horrible stupid shit. One copper here really had it in for me for some reason though(the one that finally caught me on my bike). But I have not seen him for a year or so.

    Anyone heard of a missing cop down that way?
