Urinating in a public place is "frowned on" by plod. Wetting yourself is NOT ... apparently ...

Nope, I've been to told to look up the law on urinating on the left rear wheel of your vehicle. Meant to be a law saying it can be done if no appropriate cover can be found.

I struggle to believe it, but the source was multiple so it's a possibility.

I DID SAY .... "frowned on" ... (legality depends on location)

There is a time and place for everything you know ....

Don't yell at me old timer, I'll push you over and watch you struggle to get back up!

Location thing makes the law sound more plausible, still a stretch though.

Law .... plausable ....


We just have to obey them ... not undestand them ...

not totally right, it is a "loose" defense under the following -

Excreting in public place
(1) Every person is liable to a fine not exceeding $200 who urinates or defecates in any public place other than a public lavatory.
(2) It is a defence in a prosecution under this section if the defendant proves that he had reasonable
grounds for believing that he would not be observed.

So if you could show you believed you could not be seen pissing on your left rear it is theoretically possible to defend
Now you know

One of my wedding party urinated on a police car outside De Brett's during my stag do. He sometimes visits this site. It was jolly funny.

Probably was funny.

If you're 12 years old.

Ah... would it have been equally funny if he urinated on the wheel of your own bike? Humor Fail....

Lucky he got away with that little number cause i woulda thrown the HOOK at him if i had observed

UNDER the limit is not always "legal" ... if an Officer deems it dangerous ... a ticket is issued ...

Then it's ... "tell it to the judge" ...

The only ticket I have had was passing a car doing 120, the cop clocked the car doing 90, as I was prepared to slow down to 105-110 after the pass I consider the turkey I followed doing 90 for 15 minnuts or so far more of a menace than myself getting out of his way then doing a legal speed.

To impede the flow of traffic IS a traffic infringement ... although it is not often enforced unless the speed is below 60 kms/hr ... in most cases ...

[Sharry]

My reconing would be that the revenue from my ticket was more than the revenue from a possable infringement to the car driver.

[RDJ]

So - we've just had the priorities demonstrated today. The authorities' >4km/hr intolerance for citizens driving safely on the open road, but full tolerance for protesters charging the Prime Minister and injuring at least two cameramen.

I rather suspect the humour fail was your own. What was jolly funny was the swift response. The Police car was occupied. He was jolly silly for getting that trolleyed.

Why would I be riding a bike to a stag do? Wouldn't that be jolly silly?
