Would you ride with coppers?

Bitterness is what keeps me young.

A pair of cynicism beats a full hand of bitterness

Hence why I'm so young

But would you ride with you?

And if you caught yourself speeding would you DIY a ticket?

Yup, would ride with me but if I was speeding? meh, after some mental turmoil I decided to use my discretion and a warning were the best plan!

But next time I'd better look out.

To answer the origional question.......have done in the past and will do again. A job is a job is a job, do you take yours home with you out of hours????
Christ, sad life if you do.

Hey, dumbarse - I'm not the one handing out tickets to others for breaking the law whilst riding a motorbike.

No you aren't & the great unwashed hoards sigh with relief such a person as yourself wears no badge

But you are the (self imposed) poster boy for all that is holy when it comes to riding "safely". Wasn't that hard to put together was it? Geez even for you I would of thought it an easy step

Mr Scumdog rides a Harley. If he *were* speeding, he wouldn't be able to keep up with himself, to give himself the ticket.

What the fuck are you on about?

If you have evidence of me riding unsafely, table it, or shut the fuck up.

lol aint that the truth.


Not something to be proud of Katman

lol ease up on the Bourbons Steve, take a deep breath & go back a few posts (you are as bad as ya mate Pussy, throw ya toys out of the cot so quickly).


I did ASK you if you had ever broken the law whilst riding a motorcycle, you chose to ignore that in the following posts. I just find that terribly interesting given the ferocity with which you attack people that don't agree with you on this subject

When you get to 50+ years old your Royal Flush is valueless...and it would never top even a Two of Cynicism anyway...

And I have no problem with that (as long as those cops don't head out on Monday to ticket people for 115kph).

There are examples, however (in this thread alone), of police officers doing considerably highers speeds than 120kph.

Acceptable? I think not.

Why not? I bet you have exceeded 120kph. I know I have. I'd wager there's no-one on this site who hasn't , except may be a few whose bikes simply can't (like Mr Scumdog ). Why should the guy over there be reagrded in a different light to the rest of us?

Now, the few speeding tickets I've had, the cop has been quite non-judgemental about it. "You wuz doing blah". "yes, grovel, plead, wheedle, promise" (Often works , had lots more warnings than tickets). "sorry, but the tolerance we allow is 10kph, got to give you a ticket". "Oh , alright". No lectures about how speeding is the ultimate evil, far worse then mass murder or kiddie fiddling, etc etc. If I was ticketed by a cop who went on thus (and I know they are out there), and then discovered said cop speeding off duty, I would indeed call him a hypocrite. But if the cop just says "You wuz doing blah, sorry law says 100kph, it's my job to dish you out a ticket", well that's not imposing any moral judgement. If I saw him speeding the next day I wouldn't think less of him.

After all, the guy at the tax department who says you must pay all that tax probably bitches about being overtaxed just like you do. It's just his job to collect it. Cops job to give you a ticket if he sees you breaking the speed limit. Maybe he doesn't really believe in the speed limit, but thing is it's his job to enforce the law when on duty. Not just the bits of the law he agrees with. Off duty, another matter.

[Katman]

Why not? I bet you have exceeded 120kph.

I have never said I haven't.

What I have said is that I'm not the one who is issuing tickets to people for doing something that I, myself, have been guilty of.

No but you are the self imposed poster boy for all things holy on two wheels, whats the difference?
