Un-marked Police

[MikeyG]

You also have to watch out in the CBD (auckland) as they (the police) have a Black (fully decked out) HSV.

To the AA magazine police denied having any HSV's or SS's and said they were probably people with radar jammers. Just wonderinf if you have seen this HSV with lights on/pulling people over or just from your radar detector going off?

I had an unmarked silver Holden Commodore around one of the areas i was delivering mail today.. i kept thinking he was gonna pull me up.. (with me riding on footpaths, more u-turns than the whole of japan <--that didn't quite work, did it.... etc)

I think he was gonna 'hand' stop me, but i kept boosting off.. and something tells me it was more than a coincidence that i kept seeing him.. i was always heading in the 'oncoming' direction when i saw him, and i did see him u-turn twice after i went past him, just before i shot into a different street..

Scary dude.. My house is pretty much smack bang in the middle of that circle you drew!

Yeah i saw it pull someone over outside work it kinda suprised us cause we were all admiring the car just before it pull the poor bastard over.

There was a guy on the southern in a commodore who put all sorts of shit in the back window to fool motorists. Box of tissues and a hat were common items.

Forget the utes. Do NOT piss off occupants of black landrovers with tinted windows and with platforms mounted on the roof....

Dog utes, or just marked utes??

Apparently (I found this out later in the day), only 2 types drive the marked utes. Dog and Sergeants... the latter being the highest you'll find on traffic duty Obviously not a very smart move to annoy those particular vehicles.

shhhh scumdog is listening....

Dog handlers and sergeants drive marked station wagons. The doggies used to drive utes with canopies and there are still a few of them around but stuff all. The only utes on the road would be either CVIU or motorway support, (not cops, they are non sworn staff).

hahaha, if you see me, wave I'm the only DX courier that rides around those roads, and i have a black helmet (with tinted visor), so i'm not too hard to miss....

Keep this thread going.. the paranoia level is rising......

it helps to be paranoid about cops in alsorts of cars....
every car is a cop until proved otherwise <---- is the way i think on the road.
Try to keep it to 139 or under if i must speed on main roads

As said above.. There are no SS's or HSV's in the police force... They only have SV6's and bog standard commies... The SV6's are fully kitted out with the full bodykit and mags, and before you say "Cant they buy cheaper cars???" These cars are on lease, thus making it cheaper than buying standard ones...

Your a fuckin idiot Mark, Its a SV6 not an HSV.
You need to open your eyes by the way, you can expect a ticket in the mail soon, do you think your idiotic riding between EP Hwy and over the Hbr Bridge heading north on SH1 on the 23rd of June between 1815hrs and 1835hrs went unoticed?? That was some of the most dangerous riding I have EVER witnessed in my life, speeding (112 over the bridge), cutting in and out of lanes countless times, not once indicating, splitting cars just prior to the bridge on the bridge approach lanes (unsafe lane changes), cutting off the motorcycle that you were no doubt trying to prove something to (The GSXR you undertook). Yes Mark, I was sitting next to my cousin who is STU (Strategic Traffic Unit... traffic cop to you). It was a mufti vehicle, with another mission at hand. Ran your plates. Better start saving sunshine.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH BUSTED

Mark..... sux to be you right now..

[scumdog]

Woo-hoo marky

[madboy]

A certain amount of paranoia is healthy, it keeps you from riding like a complete idiot. So I'm told anyway. I assume that the road is there for my personal gratification and other road users are merely mobile chicanes. And when the pace cars/bikes come out to play it's even more fun!

And I think someone who posted a little before me might want to reflect on the kettle/pot/black thing. Granted time and place and all that, but very few of us are saints around here.

[ZeroIndex]

If your talking about me smartarse, you might wanna reflect on the Foot/ up/ arse thing..have you ever seen me ride? I have never, and wouldn't ever ride in the fashion that Mark was that night.
My fine was for speeding yes, and I paid the penalty for it.

Let those without sin cast the first stone.

kinda sounds like Mark was doing my "rob's south african version defensive driving"

South Africa was a crazy place to drive in.. New Zealand is nice and calm....except for mark's riding..

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SpeedMedic again.

Marks sooooooo busted.... whipish..... If Speedmedic thought it was dangerous, it must have been dangerous...
