So really uninsured drivers are lowering your premiums since they have to pay for the mess they've made. p

Your joking aren't you mate? Thanks to the pussy footing fuckin laws in this country you can't get the uninsured bastards to pay outl. Some uninsured twat hits you and you'll be the one out of pocket or claiming insurance in the majority of cases.

Sort your life out Disco Dan. Surely it can't be that much fun being an adult virgin?

[Swoop]

Did the cop run out of lines on his ticket, to keep writing offences?

[scracha]

Ahhhhh...17y/o and knows it all. I remember the days

They were different in black and white though.

[sprag]

Maybe the cop had no more tickets left in this ticket book or already made quote for the day,

But in saying that I think Disco Dan was in the wrong.

You should not be on the bike Dan.

[Jimmy B]

Sadly you’re not the only twat out there, but none the less, you are a twat and a dangerous one at that. Sort yourself out mate and do the time. “Cruise Missile” is a very apt description for you and your bike….

[jim.cox]

Notice how much more boring it is when someone actually praises a cop?

Surely there's something...were his boots shined...did he u-turn in a slightly dangerous place...?

Actually I would call this good policing

It has had the desired effect - by his own admission Disco is now being more careful.

And the world is a better and safer place

Although the cynic in me iays its 'cos the copper didnt have a fix and couldn't prove the speed...

yep... bitch hit me. no insurance for either of us [not worth is for an 86 gn250 that was more rust than bike] said shed pay for all damages. i ended up in a cast and out of work. she then refuses to pay, and the cops back HER up, saying it wouldnt be worth pursuing. i wish now id whacked her upside the head with my helmet like i wanted to.

Yep, he's really learnt his lesson...

Still intends to ride the bike on a restricted licence........ And will remian uninsured doing so......

That is just giving the cop that showed some discretion the finger.... No wonder they don't do it.

The lesson has NOT been learnt.... The illegal behaviour continues. So that is the LAST time i will listen to the "let me off and I'll be a good boy/girl" argument...

DougieNZ kinda sums up my thoughts.

No mention of "shit, I'll get a reg and wof and a full licence asap" etc.

[idb]

My mistake...this is getting interesting.
Dan'll be wishing that he just kept his big mouth shut!!!

[DougieNZ]

To be fair he has said that he is sorting the reg and warrant this week.

However that doesn't change the fact that he shouldn't be riding an 1100cc bike on a restricted licence.

Action: Cop lets him off with a warning..
Result: Stuff YOU I'm going to keep riding...

Action: Cop impounds bike or makes him wait for 2hrs while a properly licenced rider turns up and also fines him $700.00
Result: Thinks twice about riding again (more fines), Slows down, bike in garage until fines paid off. Gets full licence...


Hmmmmmmm

[scumdog]

And let's name&shame the slack-arse cop too!
$800 worth of tickets begging - and that's not counting the speeding one.

Having the skills and the experience is worth more in my book than a piece of paper

Yup. I think most here would agree that that's what the cop should have done.

Sometimes guys need a smack upside the head (or two, or three) before they wake up and stop being idiots.

Disco, go get your full licence and an insurance policy, you twat. Why haven't you done that already? I'm sure there are plenty of folks here who'd lend you a 250 to take the test on. The money that cop saved you by not issuing any tickets will pay for your test and a full year's comprehensive insurance premium.

Get on w'it!
