North Shore Biker Cops

[BoristheBiter]

I bow to the undoubted crowned lord of illogicality. Someone who can deduce that because a cop is using a radar gun, then anybody who is stopped must necessary have been breaking the speed limit is either (a) a cop; (b) of intellect insufficient to understand the illogic of his position , and therefore pointless to debate with.

The OP specifically says "motorway". The speed limit on the bridge is 80kph. On the Motorway (cue, motorway - get it) it is 100kph. Reference to the South side is irrelevant, the thread is entitled North Shore Biker Cops. The North Shore , surpisingly, is on the (wait for it ) North shore.

Let's take it really slowly shall we. i'm sure that if you try hard you can learn to read like everyone else. Won't Mummy be proud of you then

right, let's go
A is for Apple
B is for Bee
C is for Cat
Now you try it .

It well looks like you can write english, but it looks like you can't read so i guess your mummy won't be very proud of you today.

OP
My friend told me that this morning that on his way over the Harbour Bridge, he saw a motorbike cop on the side of the motorway ticketing a bike not once, but three times.

He said that after the last cop, the cop had some radar gun (whatever the heck its called) and was tracking the speed of bikes that were lane splitting.

Anyone know what these motorcyclists could have done wrong? Is there a speed limit to lane splitting?

EDIT: All 3 occurred before he went over the bridge. Can hardly imagine someone being pulled over on the bridge itself ...

Lets take it even slower for Ixion shall we,
The bridge is on the motorway.
either side of the bridge is 80.
not all the motorway is 100.
when i posted my comments about speeding tickets it was in resonse to miloking.
you have small soap box syndrome.
and like a good union man that you are you just make up any old shit becuase no one has heard from you for a while.

Oh and i can't spell

Is that better Viagro or would you like to give me more.

Read the thread name: NORTH SHORE BIKE COPS.

If you're on the city side of the bridge you're not a NORTH SHORE BIKE COP.
All motorway pre harbour bridge minus the hundred metres of 80km/h is 100km/h.

[avgas]

Is there a speed limit to lane splitting?

When did it go over 0kph?

So what is your point?

[BoristheBiter]

Where did i post that?

As my noble friend said , a North Shore cop must by definition be on the North Shore. Not the South shore This is called logic. Rather rare in the force.

The Northern motorway is on the (guess now) North shore ( I'll leave you to figure out where the Southern motorway is. Ask Sarge for help if its too hard)

The bridge and its immediate approaches are not part of the Northern motorway.in fact the 80kph limit marks the boundary of the quandam AHBA.

More pertinently, your bluster has thrown a smokescreen over the fact that you have not answered my original question.

The OP wrote that three.bikes were lanesplitting and were pulled over.

Your response was it serves them right for speeding . It is very improbable indeed that three bikes would all be breaking the speed limit when splitting (80 or 100 doesn't really matter).

I know of only one sort of person whose stock response to everything is an accusation of speeding.

So,once again where do you get speeding from?

[Max Preload]

Heaps of them play rugby too; what does that tell ya?

They're of low IQ and enjoy homo-erotic pursuits such as grabbing other bloke's arses and then showering with them?

What I am getting at is that you know if you are on the auckland motorway and are going over the speed limit you are going to get a ticket.

Not if you go fast enough.

But if he was a motorway cop his district would be from the start of the Southern M/Way near the Bombays, to the northern somewhere past Albany, and also up the North Western to Hobsonville.

You are pretending to have knowledge of things you dont once again.

Sigh. Do they actually require qualifications in stupidity for entry to police college, or is it inability to supply sufficient blood flow for so big a head?

North Shore, dude. Go ask Sarge where it is.

Do they have to send out a taxi for you to follow so you can fond your way there?

[red mermaid]

Excuse me...whos the stupid one?

Says the cop was on the Motorway somewhere near the bridge.

Now go back to wasteing BRONZ subs as you may be good at that.

Again I will go slower so you can get it this time.

The speed thing was in response to a different post not the OP if you actuly read what i posted you would understand this.

as you seem so hell bent on talking about lane splitting, how do you know why were they pulled over in the first place.

Get your facts striaght before you start shooting your mouth off as i never said " it serves them right for speeding" just shows what a good little labour nazi you are to write down lies about what has been posted.

And if you want to get really into it, no where other than the title does it say what direction he, the bikes being pulled over, the cops were heading, or what side of the motorway they were on.
so go stick that in your pipe and smoke it

Good point!
It serves them right for lane splitting

[australianiceman]

Good point!
It serves them right for lane splitting

And this is the point not speed.

I was pull over a couple of weeks ago and the cop pulled me over as I was on dealer plates as I was on a loan bike.
He let me off the ticket for riding an unregistered bike as I guess he just wanted to look at the New Busa I was riding.
Any who.... I asked him the law on lane splitting.

He stated that you are only legally allowed to do so if the traffic in the said lane was stationary.
Therefore if the cars in the lane you are splitting are moving you are braking the law.

He did also say that they do also understand bikers do lane split and as long as the traffic is slow and you are not going a lot faster then them they turn a blind eye. But just remember the law states the cars have to be stationary.

When I travel between cars, The best way to keep in the law is to have your indicator on and keep swapping lanes between cars therefore you are just overtaking.

Lets be safe out there......

[Rogue Rider]

Not sure whether its lane splitting, but a bike coparoo gave me a ticket once for riding up the middle of the cars.... I proceeded to inform him that technically I wasn't because I was on the outside lane and I wasn't passing on an inside lane..... arguing with a cop not smart I know, especially with arrogant nob tokers who can't even speak civil with manners.
To the cop defenders above, slamming the aggression of the cop slagger, In my experience, I haven't met a nice, well mannered traffic cop since the disbanding of the MOT. Yes there must be nice cops out there, I just haven't met or seen any. None of them wave????
Anyway, a bored cop will always choose an easy target, it's a bit like a limp animal, wolves take advantage of any opportunity...... Too all the well serving, polite and good mannered police officers out there, I look forward to meeting you in the future..... or is it like the TUI bill boards... YEAH RIGHT

[rustic101]

The addition to this is if you stay (including your mirror) to the left side of the centre line. I.e technically not splitting but passing in very tight conditions.

Here in Wellington I have found recently most if not all drivers actually move left and let you past. I split five days a week morning and night and have only had one or two issues with muppets not letting you past, or idiots who try and close the gap between the two cars as you pass.. on one such occasion I went to his work and had a friendly chat with him. He waves to me every morning now and gives me a whole lot of room
