Scumdog, the runner doesn't start until the cop tries to pull you over. And why do they try and pull you over? For speeding. So if they focused on dangerous driving to start with, and not speeding, then they wouldn't have tried to pull the bike over. So the runner would have never started. And that means the cops wouldn't have been on the wrong side of the road at 200k into oncoming traffic. But since a 1600kg car (or 3) doing 200k+ into oncoming traffic on the other side of the road is better for road safety than a 170kg motorcycle doing 130k in their own lane with no cars in front or behind... guess what's gonna happen.
Spud, you and Andy Knacksted need to get a room. Last time I had to listen to a cop tell me that ticketing me for 120-something on a deserted 4-lane/median barriered mway was contributing to road safety... oh God, it took me ages to wipe the tears from my eyes.
Can't you just admit that Road Safety as administered by the cops in NZ is just revenue gathering? At least IRD are honest about what their jobs are.
By saying you don't agree with cameras, you're also saying you don't agree with a significant proportion of the road policing that goes on. Like the Highway Patrol for starters. Most of those guys seem to park exactly where 110+ is safe and easy to do. JUST LIKE CAMERA VANS. I don't see too many HP hiding in the middle of Paekak or the takas busting cages coming around blind corners on the wrong side of the road. God no, because that doesn't immediately self fund.
