Caesar is overrated :POriginally Posted by oneofsix
Just think of it as another way to render unto CaesarNot an offering to the god of speed (Burt Munro reference) but one to the civil authority via the tax collector.
The only offering I make to the god of speed is the little bit of poo that comes out when I hit about 2 spot and the corner ahead is approaching a little faster than I'd like :P

My bike Rego isnt to my home addressI had a cop down this way trying to ping me for ages riding to work once, but I went a different route everyday. The only reason I finally got caught was I left my bike parked on the footpath outside a mates place, and they got my rego number, and when I did a runner, they just went and waited at home for me.
Crafty buggers, fair cop though. I only got done for no license or rego.
and I had to slow down because this morning as I normally hit 70-100km at the start of the pram motorway before the signs but saw a 4x4 cop car ahead :s

Yeah ... I generally find that close encounters with the cops these days is a pleasant experience ... (apart from the unpleasantness of paying the ticket and accumulating demerit points) ... probably because I cut my hair off, I don't wear 1%er cuts over my leathers any more, my bikes are modern Jap, rego and warranted - and I don't give them attitude ... because I did it .. can't complain or bitch about a ticket for something I knowingly did ... (plus - when I take off my helmet and the cops see the white hair they probably back down a little ...)
And then I went down town at lunch time and checked my Lotto tickets - one paid me $23 - so that's 14% of the fine paid ..

Neutral on that one ... just sharing a biker experience ... Why? Do you think it is something to be proud of?

its possible.. except, you dont nudge 200 on roads with tractors.. or side roads, or other places where people might arrive unexpected..Or your nudging the big 200 hundy and a tractor comes hurtling out of a farm track with its loader about head height.

Well that leaves out all the roads down here then.

One day, leaving Hampton Downs after marshalling... 4 cop cars on the interchange
Don't speed on the motorway. If there isn't a cop car around, the cameras will see it, and one will be sent...

There's a couple up here :P Cant tell you where however..Well that leaves out all the roads down here then.
Yes, pity no one mentioned this to me prior to my trip to Mystery Creek. I would not normally take the main roads, but.. it was late, I was tired, and it was a work related trip so I didnt think I should abuse the priviledge.One day, leaving Hampton Downs after marshalling... 4 cop cars on the interchange

Well this is quite interesting, it seems all of a sudden the cops are out in force. I covered a fair bit of ground over the long weekend including supposed "blackspots" and saw one cop the whole time.
I have also been doing my best to keep the Govts. coffers full,and over the last few months have pretty much lost count of the number of times I have encounterd a cop car while I've been doing 120-130 kph (10 instances at least).
The biggest punishment I have recieved is a 2 minute chat where it was suggested I should slow down, he didn't even ask for my license.
Now I'm not complaing (I do have a small conspiracy theory about it though) but must admit I am somewhat confused as to the lack of infringement notices being handed to me.
Has anyone else here experienced this?
Forum whore
definitely,
