    Pardon my interfering if this is not "Spot the deliberate mistake" but if the gun was being put away how were you "recorded" If you didn't see him until after you were pinged then I would say lack of attention. If it was not deployed then how did he get a fix?

    Ahhhhh. So that's the secret. Just start farting until they leave in disgust.

    Definitely inattention - youre bang on. He obviously got me from a long way off coz he was putting it away as i went past, though in my defence, in 3 lanes of traffic with copper on far left shoulder he might have been a little harder to spot. Still i was speeding and got done for it - fair enough in my books.

    Oh and no it wasnt a harley rider, was yellow sports bike and got a slight nod, was simultaneous with then looking left to see the plod and gave him a nod.

    And yes Steam when the police tells me ive done something wrong, when i too know i have, then i do act polite and courteous. Not too sure about the soap in the shower buzz though, guess whatever gets you off mate, each to their own.

    Has any technical wizard thought up a device that quietly destroys the inner workings of the police equipment when it locks onto you?

    Naturally I don't speed but I could do a course on that so that they could be sure to lock onto my bike on the odd occasion!

    Well explained but it was not me that advocated the "Pick up my soap" that would be adding insult to injury. I still believe that you were targeted, in three lanes of traffic, but that's what Uncle Helen hath decreed. Guess things will be different after the elections...........smacks self in head. New Politicians will be in power but they are still politicians and therefore reside in another galaxy. Whichever way it goes...........be afraid, be very afraid. A united front will help but it must have 100% of the KB membership to succeed. Look to our Aussie neighbours as to what they do when unwelcome legislation is passed. Try google and search "Wransacked" Peace brothers and Uncle Helen.

    Yeah, it's possible. But no, nobody's done it yet.

    The USA is working on a small EMP weapon (Electromagnetic Pulse) that can be fired from a truck or plane without destroying the vehicle. That will permanently destroy anything with a chip in it.

    Such a thing already exists but at the moment it requires a large nuclear weapon detonated in the upper atmosphere. The US have very large EMP weapons designed to kill all electronic devices from your watch, to a bike's brain, to a vast server farm, to a whole city, all the way up to slagging all chips on an entire continent when used in an array.
    Imagine the devastation if China got pissed off enough to fire an EMP (not hard for them to make) over the USA, and it would permanently shut down every car, bike, computer, etc etc. Permanently. Destroy every company, all refineries, all cities blacked-out, all cars immoblised.
    Of course, the US military would retaliate with a full-scale nuclear strike because their systems are hardened against EMP, so although nothing in the US made after 1980 would work, China would be a glowing ruin.

    That sounds exciting.

    Helen Clark will probably legislate against all that in order to get the green support and form another government later this year! John.

    Could it have been a laser unit? They are supposed to be used stationary. I thought hand held radars had been phased out?
