I think the term 'driver' is synonymous with 'rider' in legislation.

Hey Jewfag,

your obsession with WINJA is bordering on the psychotically gay. It's got that whole Jeffrey Dahmer feel to it. Know mean?

Missus Speedie answered the door and was not impressed with him.
She came and woke me up and said that weirdo cop was just here asking where you were.. the one with the giger beard.
I want to know how long it is going to be untill these pricks stop hassling me for somethin that happened nearly three years ago, that I have paid for and been a good boy since then??
I went to the Orewa police station today to find the Ginga but he was out.

Have you thought of contacting the area Commander and demanding the harassment stop?
