If you were on a track and things like that were disallowed you wouldn't do it. Why do it on the road where it is also disallowed?

That boy has some cheek putting it on his facebook page, hes just an arrogant chicken. Same as kids who think an ASBO is some sort of qualification.

Sort of follows on from all those bebo accounts ,that had people posing with knives , swords, guns . *most were Repilicas * but some looked real,

I meanwhy imcrimanate urself? , there was a bloke on a vx220 turbo forum , who had a video of him doing like 140 on the motorway , and was banned because of it , i think he was the first to be banned like that , hence the old *private* road story etc

But 100% correct , what a knob ,

only thing I give a shaZam! about is the fact that there's a Volkswagen Beatle behind him truckin' along...which means the road wasn't clear.  I have no problem hitting 50, 80, or even going into the triples when the roads are clear...no matter what the speed limit is....and when I had my TL picking the front up from time to time was no problem unless, again, there was traffic around.

i kind feel sorry for the guy. but long ago i learned that a chrome visor and sunglass's keep the watchers away.  a license plate is not enough they need to ID the rider.  so guys and gals smoke or chrome but no clear dome.  haahaha i made a funny  chrome....dome...it rhymes  git it? get it?

And illegal in this country... people still wear them, but they are illegal. I think you could get away with it if you had a clear one in your bag incase you lost the light.

The cameras that they use to capture violators like that are pretty high resolution so if he had a clear face shield on they could possibly match the portion of the face they could see to his facebook pic.  In any case your still retarded to take a pic of you on the news breaking the law and make it your facebook pic, what a meat head.

What makes it all the more funnier is that fact that if he had kept his gob shut he would have got away with a verbal bollocking. Instead he opened his mouth and ended up in jail  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
