I have no doubt there's the odd cop about who abuses his position simply on statistical grounds but personally, I have yet to meet one. Haven't been pulled over for a good few years but when I have, it's been handled professionally and I've undoubtedly deserved it .

I have found that most of the cops I've met have been bloody good, some have been fair and proffessional, and a very few have been mini hitlers who have abused their power. Probably 60% good, 30% fair, 10% abusers.

The worst one I ever came across was near Hampden, south of Oamaru, just after speed cameras were introduced and were operated by uniformed cops. I was approaching Hampden from the north, and noticed that the 70 kmh sign at the edge of the town was missing. Then I noticed it lying in the grass at the side of the road. Further up the road there was a speed camera station wagon with the camera pointing in the direction of the missing sign.

I stopped and mentioned to the officer that the sign was down, and that any motorists approaching from that direction would be unaware that they weren't still in a 100kmh area. The cop's reply just about floored me. He said " Yes, I know its down, its not my problem." I can't remember the cop's name, but I believe he is still in the north otago area.

While it is there, what was your attitude like on the day?

I know this cop from years back, he is ex MOT and a decent sort, worked with him after the merger... but if he copped attitude, well... you know how it works??? Dunno about the paperwork bit tho, he wasn't like that... a straight arrow.

Well, he's stated in the paperwork that I "declined to view" on both occasions, I was there and I'm telling you he never even offered. He's a fucking liar.

He asked for my license, I simply handed it over, there was no "good morning" no reason given for stopping me until he had his book out. I didn't give him any lip until he made the comment (while smirking) that the speeding was going to cost me three hundred dollars. I'd give any smarmy prick the same treatment, a copper, the mayor or the bloody pope.

When you get a bill from a plumber or a bike shop they don't hand it to you grinning like a Cheshire cat with obvious glee that they're making your wallet lighter, do they?

[MSTRS:Me]

As is this post perhaps? We don't have any 30kmph roadwork signs... Accident signs sometimes, but that is it...

Not bullshit. The roadworks and speed signs were (allegedly) put up by a pair of cops as a sting. There were no roadworks in the area - just the 2 cops and their bullshit trap.

Fair enough, but hey... instead of "declined to," insert "did not"... Dunno about the smirk part... wasn't there but sounds poor. At least he was up front about the costs?

As for the Plumber and Bike Shops, I agree totally, until you are out of sight and they begin high 5's all round...!!! Bastards!!!

So what is the difference between this and a normal speed trap..............yep I know I am being a smart arse but just looking at from a different angle...........it is still a speed trap to catch people out so why can't they do this......

Ya know it makes sense.......

A great start, I also can't be bothered chatting to cops that are booking me, nicely or other. It's a simple business transaction. I just take the ticket, get on my way and pay the revenue at the latest due date. Simple really.
Sucks that he had to lie to stick the boot in but he has to live with that, not you.

Hang your head in shame. You maniac, you. Deserved a jolly good rogering by the spotless HP, didn't you?

[Karma]

Well the 30kph signs aren't a suggested speed, we need more cops at road work sights to slow down wankers.

Maybe if the fucken roadie companies pulled finger and got the roads sorted...

Auckland northern motorway, all that shit on upper harbour highway, how long have these roadworks been here?

Nah, just a lesson........but the roggering sounds good.

I was 10 days away from 2 years and got 35pts for crossing a no passing line.....and I didn't have to stop....ah well

What about Esmond Road.....geeze the roadworks changed daily, inadequate signs and coming off from the City they have 3 lanes at lights which rapidly change to 2 about 10 metres further on.......uurrr

[Winston001]

Guys, life is not perfect........he was exceeding the 80kph speed limit.........was he doing 111kph, who knows.

So the cop was not nice, allegedly lied......to be honest a relatively minor lie given that he was still speeding.

Why get stressed about it.....you are trying to prove a point because you are cynical about the Police and have got on that anti cop band wagon......yeah it is a pain eh but in the whole scheme of things it is just a nuisance.......to me you are just biting.

Agreed, Its frustrating but a small matter really.

Did it occur to you that the officer might have misremembered the specific events and blurred them with another motorcyclist he caught that day? We are all human and memory is a tricky beast.

The officer may very well agree in evidence that he was mistaken about throwing down the ticket or offering you to look at the speed, but so what? I can't see the judge being influenced by that. It is irrelevant to the charge.

There is a thin possibility that you could persuade the judge to discharge you as a warning to the police not to spice up facts - judges don't like that - but honestly the odds aren't good.

I have no doubt you are telling the truth. It is entirely possible the officer thinks he is also telling the truth. Memories aren't always reliable.
