stood on the fence Al there......traffic filth good ? Traffic filth, waste of time....? well.................
:lol: yes I did....I have mixed views, I have met some good trafic cops, and been let off some high speeds after a long lecture in the patrol car because they could see the conditions and they way I was riding were appropriate., then I have also met some who just want to book you and get on with the next booking no mater what.

On the whole I think the new generation of traffic cop who is doing it my the tick box rule book, is bad, the old school who look at the big picture are [were?] OK. trouble is in the next couple of years those old school boys will all be gone to protect what is left of their pension

I think traffic police are brilliant. They seem laid back ad very smiley. This is all based on watching chips when I was younger. I believe it was a fly on the wall documentary on the California highway patrol.

If I am wrong then they must be b8stard.

Sorry.

Seeing as though I havent been riding for very long I havent really had much dealings with the plod lately. When I was a youth and owned a Speedfight 50, it was a different story....maybe riding around Lincoln like it was a race track wasnt the best idea I had at the time, or maybe trying to perfect the stand up wheelie or riding backwards on main roads might have done it.........I used to always get pulled.......back then it was just a slap on the wrists and a producer......

The last time I spoke to a chopper about anything was when I called one a prick for pulling my girlfriend over because he thought she was on the phone whilst driving (she wasnt)

Come to think of it, I think the last time I got pulled was when I was "messing about" in my old BM :lol: they were the days......hmmmmm, have to find the vid of me in the BM donutting around my mates ZX6 at a local airfield and get that posted up haha :thumbup:
