Charged with dangerous driving. What's going to happen?

[Boob Johnson]

Cant speak for everyone else, but a bit of a piss take goes along way and brightens up what would have been a pretty depressing topic. The fact o the matter is that despite Mark being given good advice, he continously carrys on being a squid and riding (and driving) like a twat. To the point that he now is facing a dangerous driving charge. Now I suspect and yes I could be wrong, that if we knew the facts, we would have an unbiased opinion of whats really going on. But due to the fact that we do not and the fact that Mark has often talked a load of bollocks in the past, its hard to be able to form any opinion. However, I will leave you with this one thought. If you really think that people are wishing him to be arse raped (remember the concept of the piss take), then are you taking it all a tad too seriously?

And the most sensible post goes too.............


INLINEFOUR!!!


Too all the well wishers, do you know this boys history? There is a reason why there is an outpouring of disgust at this latest actions. I know you all mean well in what your saying but the boy has had that soft approach already, many times. Its time for a slap in the face with a wet kipper ie: tuff love.


For those that understand this concept, an E-Beer from me


For those that don't, I sincerely hope you ponder on the idea & my only hope is that it sinks in as it may come in handy one day.

Many many moons ago I got a "wet kipper" in the face from my dad, a lil tuff love & it worked. If I was kept wrapped in cotton wool nothing would of changed.

Pleeease! Of course I was a fuckwit as a teenager on a bike, and I had plenty of people tell me so. The thing is, once I'd heard it often enough I started thinking maybe I should do something about it. Sometimes it's good to be told "wake up to yourself, fuckwit".

For once I agree with you Katman

Btw, a biker on the side of the road is an unknown to me and I'll therefore happily give their character the benifit of the doubt. Anyone who so publicly proclaims their stupidity doesn't qualify for the same benifit.

Twice in one thread I agree with you Katman

only 2 more days of this and it will be over unless there is another thread started on complaints on the hand dealt and played.

I haven't noticed many posts by you, although on the odd occasion (when I've made a fairly good post that you've obviously liked...), I've received green rep from you... Let me share some green with you too, as I couldn't agree more with your message to Mark

Can someone give me the link to Mark's story please. I just read his firts blurb about his dangerous driving and impound but it doesnt say what actually happened..this isnt adding up with the impound.

thats the story there

i rang up about getting my bike out of impound as it should not have been impounded, or so i'm told i left a message on the seargents phone but this has not been returned.

Hey mark I dont know you but I think we are probably very similar,
I myself enjoy stoppies wheelies etc and have probably racked up more fines than anybody here, as well as multiple appearances in court
desperately trying to change my ways and keep it legit, Havent had a fine for 4 months - and then 2 weeks ago I was served with a letter forbidding me to drive for 3 months (demerits)
even worse was I was due to sit my restricted the following morning - I finally had everything legit - warrant rego indicators etc
pretty gutting
last time this happened (less than a year ago) I ignored it, rode everyday for 3 months and got away with it - Whilst I think I would get away with it again, I have seen the error in my ways and have decided to bite the bullet and not ride. This time round, its not worth the risk, this may be my last summer in this country for a few years and Im not gonna risk not being allowed on the road. My point is, while we see these things we do as being ok, the law is clear and if we break it we should accept that there are consequinces - I have read this thread from start to here and I am sorry for what happened - if what you say is true you should fight it to the end.
If you really feel you have a case, you need to get your facts straight and hire a lawyer, if you win - you will have to pay the lawyer - but have no record and you will still have a licence, but if you lose you will have to pay the lawyer as well as the fine.
I encourage you to have a think about this whole situation, there is only one way to avoid this - get legit. I know Im going to...

as for all these people abusing you - it is a theme I see so much here - multiple times I have explained my situation and been met with abuse
this community is so quick to flame - more so than other forums I belong to
Get off your fucking high horses and offer proper advice and if you dont have any, keep your mouth shut ?
If you have a post count of 3000 but only ride your bike on fine sundays, this means you.
this needs to change
some people in this thread are bang on the money with their posts, alot of you are just dribbling bullshit for the sake of posting and it didnt help the situation in any way except create a 13page thread to read through
sm good luck with your court date - if you feel you have a case - get a lawyer - I look forward to meeting you and riding - perhaps at a trackday (thats where Ill be these next 3 months..)
You can probably expect a 6 month disqualification and a fine between 500 and a grand..
knowing your rights may just help
a policeman not following procedures can throw a case out the window
impounding your bike and not giving you any receipt seems like shit to me, the cop breaking the law on the way to the station seems like shit to me, and cuffing you seems unnessacery

So are you going to leave it at that and keep moaning on KB about how the world owes you a living or get off your slack arse and do something about it? Oh here's a novel idea why not put in a personal apearance at the Police station concerned insead of useing the phone this will generally gain you more traction with the authoritys maybe take your Dad along with you or a trusted older KB member like Ixion, hey here you go PM me with your phone number and I will go to the Police station with you. I know for sure that doing something like this is more likely to get a result.

Rubbish. 99% of cops are straight up honest working New Zealanders who do care about the community and joined the job to make a difference.

Hey D50... that figure is statistically proven to be 99.99999999999% It is just that 99.9999999999% the wrongdoers don't like the truth...

considering it's in my name but i do not actually own it it shouldnt matter....i have only paid a deposit to my mate.

Nice try... it is yours...!!

I concur!!

And you sorry-arsed losers that moan about 'smart-arse' cops? - well I have to deal with WAAAY more smart-arsed public, - only they ain't as smart as they think - and it costs!!

Now aint that the truth!!!!!

...i rang up about getting my bike out of impound as it should not have been impounded, or so i'm told i left a message on the seargents phone but this has not been returned.

Huh??? Don't believe me????? Ring back and ask the Senior Sergeant to sort it then....

, ...a policeman not following procedures can throw a case out the window..impounding your bike and not giving you any receipt seems like shit to me, the cop breaking the law on the way to the station seems like shit to me, and cuffing you seems unnessacery

And often those "procedures" have absolutely nothing to do with the facts on why you were caught... Not being given the two copies of the form is not a biggie, the other copy will be on the Prosecution File. The cop breaking the law... hmmm... blame shift... good one... Handcuffing prevents any assault, jumping out of the car, whatever... this way we know you are under control and will have trouble reaching for any weapon that you might have hidden on ya. The number of times I have found screwdrivers, knives and even a loaded gun hidden in the back of a patrol car because some lazy cop didn't search a "detained person" shits me...!!!

Good call... point out that the Sgt didn't return your call as asked, "so here I am to sort this, please..."

[Toaster]

Keep in mind police work shifts and the guy may be on leave. Give them time to return calls. They dont work Mon-Fri like most and are often busy or out attending jobs.

Pat I didnt mean to imply that those things I thought were shitty might get him off, I dont know the law (tho a few family members are cops)
I just thought they were shitty
no biggie

Never a truer word spoken!

Now there is a novel idea for sure

I reckon you would cut to the chase fairly quickly mate!
