    I rarely hit a bad one mind, even travelling around. Sometimes the local Mobil employs dicks, the last one they employed has put me off ever going there agin for fuel.

    Mind you, pay peanuts get starved monkeys.

    I agree many need a kick up the arse

    But do you abuse them because of the pricing structure. Or because head office denies them staff so they have to run the pumps on prepay? Tempting though it is to lash out at the symbol of "the Man (tm)" when they charge you knocking on $60 to fill up your steed, it's pointless.

    DB seems to be implying that anyone pulled over (if they do pull over) and chatted to by these clipboard jockeys should abuse them for being part of ACC. But then KB always has produced big-talking keyboard warriors.

    To my mind, 50,000 (or thereabouts) motorcyclists making the 1st person explanation that high-viz is not the solution has more chance of being listened to that some plonker mouthing off.

    Well if I can make sense of the data, a factsheet may be in the works to help out...

    checkpoint pt 2

    The cop said I didnt have to talk to the ACC guy, totally up to me.

    But.....Nice fine sunny day, hours of riding ahead of me, a friendly cop, and a smiling guy from ACC being made to work on a Sunday, in an effort (useful, useless,whatever your opinion) to make the world a safer place for ME, so why wouldn't I talk to him.

    Be all staunch and say 'fuck that' and ride off, but don't then come here a bitch about what ACC are doing, or that their plans are shit, if you cant spare 60 seconds from your busy day to have a quick chat on the roadside, hear what they have to say, and offer some ideas.
    It wasn't me, it was like that when I found it. Honest.

    BTW the rest of your post was valid but it was overshadowed by the mini facepalm halfway through.

    .
    I did not realise that I was responding to a post by the illustrious DB. I dont actually abuse anyone, even the annoying people employed by an employer that pays minimum with little support to their staff, who are sometimes empowered by a little bit of training.

    Never, ever thought of abusing one for the price I had to pay. The people at these check points are I am sure genuine in their desire to see the biker deaTH RATE DECLINE. Opps! Just they have no right to detain me as I go about my lawful business.

    Cool.



    Question: how do you diferentiate your facts from those on all the other fact sheets? The ones with all the other, different facts.

    Just curious.

    Find the ones without any 'spin' on em of course! Or if there are none adequate, just explain why those other facts, are actually, just assumptions. Like the NZ study, if it's findings were correct, the accident rate should have gone down by around 7% once the headlight law was introduced (assuming it was followed, the same assumption they would need to make with high vis), did it?

    If I get stopped I'll ride off as soon as the policeman has done his checks. I can't be fucked listening to some acc fuckmuppet talking out his arse.

    So I am wearing racing leathers, which are heavily armoured and made of substantial materials designed to protect bones and flesh in the event of an impact with the road or anything else. My leathers have prominent white sections and also reflective strips designed to provide a high degree of visibility, both at night as well as in day light.

    Why pick on me and let Mr T-shirt, Shorts & Jandals boy pass unhindered?

    Of course I say nothing to upset anyone and I am quite grateful for not getting a speeding ticket for any alledged infringements

    If you're being told off for not wearing hi-vis, ask them how the fuck did they see you in time to pull you over?

    I'd like to see the full "scale".
    -1: Not driving in a tank.
    -1: Not driving a car.
    -1: Not wearing full hi-viz to make up for another persons myopia.
    -1: Not riding with a tray of donuts attached to the pillion seat.

    Damn, I can only get a 17/20 at best.
