    Don't hug too hard. You may get arrested for something far worse.

    Dont forget that if Police aren't handing out tickets, regardless how dangerous the stretch of road is, noone would even consider the posted speed limit; there would be many more speed related accidents on the road.

    As bikers we are very aware of our environment when riding... what is that driver doing now? are they changing lanes but not indicating cause they are on their cell phone? Now add 20 or 30 km more to everyone's speed as there are no police waiting to take away our money... You got more dumb drivers/riders, causing more dumb accidents with less time for anyone to react.

    In saying that I got a ticket for doing 64 in a 50 coming out of a round-a-bout. He was sitting there for me. It was terribly calculated. Got off my bike (Hyo GT250R) to show him my Learners license - his comment was 'bit big for a learner isnt it?', oh and 'you should be displaying an L plate.' Really good guy, spent more time chatting about how he used to ride bikes in India and how shite the roads and traffic is there.

    *hick* time for another beer!

    Stay inside or on the speed limit - and you're invisible!

    If everyone took notice of the way people get crucified about their speeding stories, there'd be none to read. Personally, living out in Papakura, I would rather know if there's some blitz going on. C'mon, we all ride bikes and we all speed at some point or another. Clevedon Rd isn't exactly suburbia.

    Those without sin should cast the first stone, so think carefully before throwing!

    Don't get caught up in the misconception that exceeding the speed limit leads to speed related accidents. Most speed related accidents happen at less than the posted speed limit. They are classified as "Too fast for the conditions". Accidents that do not have a definite classifiable cause are listed as speed related also. In fact very few speed related accidents happen at over the speed limit, but those that do are much more likely to result in serious injury or death.

    Notice also the words "speed related". It isn't "speed caused".
