Title: cops finaly got me happy?
Post by: deathlucky on August 23, 2006, 02:23:29 AM
hi
this will make all you tight asss happy today i was on my way home ffrom work in rush hour traffic so i thought i might cut up the shoulder as i was cutting up the shoulder i saw a cop bike in the traffic. it pulled me over the cop said i was doing atleast 90kmh in a 60kmh zone so he went and gave me a ticket for $60 and i didnt get any points. when he told me i all most laughed at him.

so i got pinned for
riding on the shoulder
riding 30km over the limet

he could of also got me for
not displaying P plates
using a tinted visor at night

the funny thing is that it was a rental GS500 05 that he got me on so it will be fun explaining that to the bike shop

The only time I could EVER rent a bike is maybe at the racing schools.  The stunt riding schools give you a bike modded for training I think.
