Running from cops

[**R1**]

how many times has this come up??

I remember the first one i did, it wasnt planned, I was on 95 demerit points, and went flyin past a copper at 145 in a 100, for some reason I just kept going, b4 i knew it I was safely home..Wow i thought for the first time in my biking life I didnt get a huge ticket and loose my licence..Cool I thought I got away with it from now on I'll take it easy

well from then on it got easier and easier(the R1 helped) I can honestly say I havnt had to do one for a while...That I can remember anyway (is it bad when ya cant remember how many you have dun?)It duz get eaiser but I still shit my self each and every time I do it, well for the first 20 seconds anyway..

If you have any doubts at all in your mind about getting away, and getting away safely DONT DO IT!

And the best place to do a runner is NOT on the coast road between Kaikoura and Ch-ch, eh??

I did a bit of crafty riding through town because I thought a policeman was going to pull me over for failing to stop at a stop sign. Thing is I went back the next day to find it was a giveway! I just freeked because he pulled a U turn and followed me for a while. Personnally I would never do a runner, but I did get accused of it when I got chased onto base! I wasn't doing a runner, I was riding home normally.

I have NO idea what you are talking about!:spudwhat:

Uh, yeah, well the pig grape vine HAS been a little slow these days!!!

, which in turn impacts everything in my life. My insurer obviously wouldn't cover me while I was disq, and I doubt very much they'd be continuing my cover when I got my license back again. Not for a 4th disq.

Can you see where I'm coming from?[/QUOTE]


shit mate 4th disq.

you need to learn to run from the cops better than you have been trying by the looks of that.
hahahaha

Righto, I have just seen tonights news and know their is already a thread about it. But how common is running from cops? Do all bikers do this - I dont think id have the balls, but the adrenaline rush must be awesome!

ADRENALINE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND WHEN DOING A RUNNER , I GOT IT FOR THE FIRST FEW , YOU GOTTA PICK YOUR BATTLES WHEN IT COMES TO RUNNERS, DONT JUST DO EM FOR FUN , IF YOUVE BEEN GOOD ALL DAY AND THEY ARE JUST STOPPING YOU FOR A RANDOM CHECK JUST STOP BE POLITE AND BE ON YOUR WAY , IF YOUR GONNA BE IN TROUBLE IE 41K OVER OR WHEELIES THEN FUCKEN VROOM VROOM FUCK THE PIGS

I wonder if an off duty cop on a quick bike would do a runner if he'd been seriously misbehaving outside of his local area

It's just happened, except he was in a Beemer.

I'd be interested to hear how much some people have paid out in speeding fines in recent years and how many hours that would have paid for at track days... where there ain't no limit, cops or demerit points.

Enlighten me. What sort of beemer? That's a little vague

I completley agree dude, even harder when it has infra-red heat sensing equipment. I fall into the "stop and pay the fine" catagory - even if I had the skills, balls and bike to get away with it. But I kinda agree with the no-license guys - if they are capable of running and everything is on their side with nothing to lose - why not give it a go? (Apart from maybe killing another motorist). But the responses have been interesting!

Cheers people.

i agree, i would pull over for normal things, but if i am caught doing 200km/h, there is no way i will be stopping

If they could positively identify you, they could arrest you and charge you for Failing to Stop. Alternatively, if they had obtained your rego, the registered owner could be given 14 days to give the name, address etc of the rider at the time of the Failing to Stop ... and then charge you. (Failing to Stop is a court appearance, not just a ticket.)

that bites, i realize you guys are doing your job and can understand that, but i still think it sucks if i get pulled over the next day

The only time I've been done for failing to stop at Red and Blue Lights was when I was flying around my local area in the '91 Nissan Bluebird, just as I'm pulling into my Road, I see red and blues flashing about 300metres back. The homo-cop "Jamie Franklin", then tells me he was following me for atleast 2k's with his lights on. "Like I'm gonna see you if your 300metres back". It goes to court, and he says "I was less that 40metres behind him for atelast 1.2km" - Oh well he lied in court so he can burn in HELL. oh .. i was his 30th failing to stop victim (Seems like a bit of a pattern for a detective wouldn't ya think?)

Less than two weeks before that, I got pulled over by a reasonable officer for failing to stop at a red light. "what red light? that was a give way?" - "Naa mate, I'm talking about the red light back in Wairau that you ran" (the one that one that I had run like 5 minutes earlier). "I've been trying to catch up for the last 3 off ramps" ... my excuse ... If I wasn't on a 250 :slap: ... he wouldn't have caught up.
