    Failure to stop for reds and blues.
    Dangerous driving.
    Probably resisting arrest
    Like as not assaulting a police officer.

    At least a few grand in fines, minimum 6 months disqualifcation, maybe more (probably more). Criminal record, maybe gaol time. Lot more than $400 and some demerits.

    And the speeding too Mr I, don't forget the speeding...

    If he had no licence (and assuming it was only because he had never applied for one, not disqualified etc) I would have handled it like this :
    I would have given him his $400 ticket AND given him 14 days compliance (i.e. if he get his Learner motorbike licence within 14 days the ticket gets cancellled)

    That way the boss sees I'm doing something, the rider gets a licence - and he doesn't get demerits/fine etc and everybody is happy.....done it a few times now.

    After that I guess he'd better get some 250 stickers on his 600 (I'm not saying it would work though!!)

    That's all you would give this guy that we're talking about that was doing 200km/ph? I thought he'd probably go to jail for initiating a chase of those speeds.

    200 KPH, what! Gonna have to go faster than that if ya really wanna do a runner. Safer to face the music.
    If you love it, let it go. If it comes back to you, you've just high-sided!

    Hell no!

    I MEANT had he been riding, not doing too much wrong AND had stopped for me instead of doing a runner.

    AFTER the runner would be toolate - it would be throw-the-whole-damn-book-at-him time.

    you'd be ok if you were riding a deceptacon, where once in the carpark out of sight it could change into a car and drive back out again.

    that'd fuck 'em

    Yeah but it takes a bit of time after that, its a long way from 220 to 250k.. (guessing here too)

    One day I'll grow up to be a man that can do 260 before that dirty hairpin..
