Do you wave or nod to cops on bikes?

And remove the helmet

Also makes a handy weapon if the fucker is reaching for the pepper.

There is some sympathy involved when he see's how ugly you are ...

[Trade_nancy]

Really?? They have to account for every single lock they make these days? Sound a bit Suss to me?

I had my doubts about that too...

Soon when they all have Hondas if you flip them the bird will they sit on it?

Once upon a time, many years ago - I was riding Scoot through Penrose on the motorway, gave a wave to the motorcycle cop in the other direction. He took offence and ended up chasing me all the way to South Auckland, along with some of his mates. It all worked out okay; but I'd sooner be nice to a latte sipping homo in ponsonby than wave at another asshole cop.

He caught you when you ran out of gas I am assuming?

[Berries]

Cops on bikes? Ha ha. Whatever next? I thought it was only CHiPS.

[Madness]

Whatever next?

[Berries]

Yeah, I have seen that in Milton.

I was on my way to a fibre node - so I was just pootling along (@ 150 ish). He told me that he had to sit on warp 9 to catch me, and lucky for me he was an okay guy because when the rest of the keystone cops turned up in cars, he told them no drama, I wasn't running.

There have been a few other times where, for some unaccountable reason, the donut eaters have decided not to catch up.

We just got given a Honda patrol bike. I've re-signed.

Coincidence?

this is how I read your response rastus, made me chuckle......

[Erelyes]

I've found ... neither admit (or deny) any infringement speeds/actions ... talk to plod with politeness ... as if they are human ... (they enjoy the novelty) ... no ranting (they enjoy the novelty)

Depends on the plod. I got picked up for about 15ish over, on a long weekend. Cop wrote it down to 10 over to save me some $$$/demerits, which I was impressed with. Less impressed however when they started going on about a school being up the road (it's the holidays love) and then further less impressed when they started mumbling about my 650's cc rating, despite having held my (full) licence in their hands for the two minutes prior.

Still, whether they're competent or not, always treat em like just another human being, just doing their job.

I thought I said that ...
