NSW Police operation to entrap and incite motorists 15-16 Sept and 22-23 Sept?

[haydes55]

I still see cops Indicating right then indicating left to go straight through a round-a-bout. Can I pull over a cop by flashing my lights and telling them they are breaking the law? It's fucking annoying. (pet peeve)

With you on that one. Mind you, plenty of professional drivers seem to struggle with the whole roundabout scenario...

I love my drift camera, got a marked popo car doing a handbrake turn, no warning, just jammed on the picks and spun around with other traffic around, turns on lights after he managed to get out of the ditch and hoofed it up the road.I stopped to video a biker popo doing radar checks on opposite side of road, he told me to move on as I was distracting other road users(what?), I did move, 500m down the road to warn other road users.Pot calling the kettle black? No Way!

Read the facebook post. How incredibly deceitful and disgusting, I expected better from Police.

Ticket arrived in mail couple of months back. Speed 112kph at Netherton. Remember it well,only car on the road in that area on that weekend. Car was pootling along at 80kph we followed (wife pillion) for around a k, it was when we went passed we were done for again, 112kph WOW ! cost $80. Yep entrapment at it's best also.

All coppers are bastards, but our bastards are fairer,brighter and better looking than those drongos across the ditch!

I've seen entrapment up here but aimed at boy racers & drunk drivers. Hot mufti (black WRX) car egging on suspects until they can be pulled over.

'Until they can be pulled over'???

Were there no safe areas for them to pull over or something??

I think he means until they do something to be pulled over for...

Oh, so you need to be doing 'something' to get pulled over??

Whole thing is a rumour started by the popo in NSW.

Every boy racer in NSW is too scared to race each other just incase its the sneaky plod driving the other car.

Dude, entrapment is conduct by a law enforcement agent inducing a person to commit an offence that the person would otherwise have been unlikely to commit.

How did the camera car induce the speed you overtook at? Surely you chose that speed.

Still, its a basic principle of the psychological defence mechanism to look for someone else to blame.

Hey there 'Jack'. We were travelling at 100kph in a 100k zone on a very straight road. we were slowed to 80kph and sat at that speed for most of a kilometer by a vehicle travelling at what would be considered to be an inconsiderate speed on an open road, driver should of moved to the left of the road... Had he moved to the left we would of carried on our way at 100kph. No the prick wanted us to pass, hence his speed of 80kph. Weather fine, conditions of road excellent,road very straight, traffic very light almost nil, road carried 100kph sign. It was entrapment. This vehicle was seen driving the same road most of the afternoon at the same speed.

And get this right 'Jack' this is not about "looking for someone else to blame" there was no need. The first paragraph of your post tells the story for us all. Read my post slowly now and yee shall find the answers to your other questions.. It is not that hard just 'SLOW your brain down' and read the post slowly. Yes, yes, I know for some that would be hard to do but try !

No different to SH75 then. A bit of pre-publicity on KB and everyone behaves or goes and finds another road, whether they see the Police or not. Embellish the story every couple of weeks and suddenly the road has self enforcing speed limits, see -

and yet another AWESOME day for a Akaroa ride and not a cop to be seen. and the road was full of bikes...
but the thought of a cop sitting and waiting somewhere with his lil speed gun did slow me down, so their sneaky plan does work.

Appears not, from your post SD. Most cops are heavy handed to the extreme. What can one expect cops around the 'world' are well noted for being right arseholes.

So..lemme get this right: your options were to travel at 80kph for a km or so - or travel at over 100kph to get past this slower vehicle?

And you chose the latter knowing it was a cop car you were passing?

Hmm, dunno if I would have done so - those cops can be right ornery ya know...




Another option would have been to *555 his ass I suppose.
