    L-Plate Mufti Cop

    I was heading up SH2 (River Road) towards Upper Hutt today.

    Parked on the side of the road was the black mufti commodore with what looked very much like an L-Plate in the rear window.

    Is this some sort of new deception technique or perhaps a practical joke on a new officer ?

    Any ideas ?

    He must have one of those bronze grade licences - only allowed to chase bicycles.

    Yeah, suxs dunnit..

    What they SHOULD do is that anyone who wants to get their car licence HAS to sit their bike licence first.. it may cut down the numbers of people not seeing bikes / u-turns and other non-friendly bike behaviour etc.. BUT on the bad side - the population would drop (some people can't drive a car sensibly let alone a bike) and the road-toll would go up (which would make the LTNZ put more speedcameras on the road blah blah blah) but it would make more people aware of the crap we have to put up with from cagers!!

    Well even if they could only do 70 kays, Deano still couldn't outrun them.

    You got that K5 yet, Bee-arch?

    Drivers on a car learners can do up to 100km on the motorway etc

    Riders on a bike learners can only do up to 70km on the motorway etc.
