    Yeah, plus the car fuckin' Dixon of Dock Green managed to hit, plus whatever injuries it's driver sustained, plus the window of the office building, plus the (implied) cost of closing the junction all afternoon, the work missed by the office workers standing around going "WTF?". We might even be forced to factor in the time and expenses of the police and ambos we can see standing around chatting in the picture.

    A shitload, in other words. All because "Oh look, a biker skipping through on yellow. You're nicked, you little fu...BANG!".

    Fuck the money, they bleed billions of us and waste it on shit anyway, what about the driver of the car?

    That cop needs to be prosecuted and fired, Its not in their job description to hurt the people of NZ, if they can't get through their day without shit like this then they don't deserve the pay packet.

    If it had been a motorcyclist hit it may have been fatal.

    Oh dear, here we go again.

    I detest police chases! Too often innocent people are injured, or killed. What a dick the rider of the bike was running red light, what a dick the cop was flicking his siren on and running the same red light. Idiots the pair of them. Do you think we should burn them?

    I hope that woman is ok!

    I just got home, and feel depressed that someone beat me to this.

    I laughed so hard at the irony when I heard it.

    HOOLIGAN POLICEMAN STRIKES INNOCENT BYSTANDER!!!

    I know we all jump on the poor Policemen, because 'they have an image to uphold', but he was to a degree, doing a job. I do respect the police when they aren't bothering me, and hope they don't make a giant fuss over it all. It could have been an honest mistake on the policemans side, but it wont heal the person he hit.

    Totally forgotten my point. ERRRR.
    OH YEAH.
    NOW THEY BETTER NOT TURN IT TOWARDS THE RED LIGHT RUNNER!
    I'll rage so damn hard. It's the bikers fault
    Coulda been any other cop, in any other scenario.
    SPEEDING KILLS, DOES IT MATTER IF YOU'RE THERE A MINUTE LATER BY TRAVELLING AT 100?!?!

    Lulz.
    Anyway. Next Drambuie, please Mr. Fridge.

    P.s. They better speed to my rescue when I need them one day.

    The cop should'nt have hit the woman but rider takes some blame acording to me, its a cops job to catch criminals. But we dont know the full story, how red was this red etc.

    On a side note, our traffic lights are shit.

    Meh. Storm in a tea cup.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
