what have i learned for next time DONT STOP and get a busa to out run the prick

Dude, you're almost a bigger fisherman than Old Man Wilson! 

Once I got a $551 ticket for negligent driving, failure to stop at a stoplight, and 70mph in a 35. The thing is that the cop was so pissed that he exagerated everything and said I was doing things that it wasn't possible for me to do.

I went to court and got it down to $61 for failure to come to a complete stop  screw you cops 

That's the thing with the GS, it's fast enough to get you in trouble but not fast enough to get you out of it. 

I bet you'll be riding really carefully while that liscence is suspended won't you now? 

I know I'm going to get roasted for this, but it's not as horrible as it sounds. Converting from kmh to mph, that's 75mph in a 50mph zone, which doesn't sound that bad. Lanesplitting, passing on the left (Aussies drive on the left side of the road, don't they?), and not signalling. I would be lying if I said I didn't indulge in the sort of squidliness on occassion. (I swear, it's impossible not to do on this section of highway 9 by me.) But if you ride like that, you gotta know you are running the risk.

you know .. for all you guys that keep saying screw the cops screw you ! these guys are out there doing what they can to make it safe for us there just doing there job and trying to cut down on the things that happen !  if you guys see some of the thigns they see i bet you would be the same way .. i bet you just about everycop has came acrossed a 18 year old kid that is dead cuz he thought he was billy bad ass or thought he could get away with it that one time . sorry to rant but man it just really gets under my skin when you guys talk like that . if you work at a shoping center and the cashier ask you for id on your check most of you will throw a fit cuz they asked .. but if it was some one that stole your checks and they did not ask you would have a fit ... you need to wake up . if you want to brake the rules you need to be ready to pay the crime dont say screw you pig,cop, ect. its not cool and those guys put there life on the line FOR YOU!!!!

I've delt with cool cops and I really apreciate what they do. Obviously we need them and can't do without them. That being said, I've also dealt with some really unresonable cops that are on a power trip and are just itching to screw someone. That's the kind of cop I hate.

My last comment about cops was said with a little sarcasam, but when I got that ticket, he could have given me a lesser charge and it would have stuck. Instead he exagerated everything to try and screw me, that's why I mostly got off, he said I did things that it wasn't possible for me to do. I guess it worked out for me that he was an @$$hole in the end though.

On a side note, what's the deal with motorcycle cops? Whenever I'm riding and I see one I wave, cause they're on a bike, but never once have they waved back. And no safety gear (other than an openface helmet) either, seems like they should know better than anybody that's not a good idea. Half the time they ride in pairs too, it seems like it would make more sense to have them covering twice the area by riding seperately, or just to throw both of them in a car. Whatever 
Later 

None of those offenses are really a big deal.  Just chill out, relax, and realize that the system is designed to fill the coffers of the state.  Writing citations by no means enhances safety.  I would be a filthy liar to say that I haven't done all of those and worse.

QuoteNone of those offenses are really a big deal. 

No, but together they describe waving your way through multi-lane traffic at high speed. Exactly the behaviour motorcyclists are hated for. And with good reason.

dl, sometimes I wonder if you are a fake.

I gave up wondering a while back.   $10 says he IS a fake.

A bit harsh???


I looked back on the two pages of posts, and only ONE person said anything about copw screwing you.

I do believe that almost everyone (if not everyone) in this thread is against what DL did.

exceed speed limit in speed zone by 31-40kmh (120 in an 80 zone) - 6 points $350
what have i learned for next time DONT STOP and get a busa to out run the prick

that's reckless and indangering the public here in the USA......you won't be driving for 3-6years, even if you got a very compasinate traffic judge. Coupled with 4pts already on yoru record, yea get use to that commuter bus


UM about the busa-out run the cop....GOOD job on that one he will have to cite you for littering body parts after that one.

As a cop I have to say that you are pretty lucky you only got tickets.  In Canada with all of those combined minor offences you probably would have been arrested for Dangerous Driving.  That carries a 1 year federal driving prohibition and your insurance would double over night. 

Having said that, when I am running radar I tend to have a soft spot for bikes when things are reasonable.  I haven't nailed a biker yet.  I usually just thank them for actually stopping and NOT taking off.  That goes for the guy on the 'Busa I stopped a month ago too   

Cop issues aside, I have to agree, bikers are getting a bad enough rap from idiots smoking past people illegally all the time.  I'm not saying I don't speed    But I certainly don't spend my time endangering my life and the lives of those around me and giving the "not so nice" cops a reason to hate us all!

To be honest with technology how it is now and especially the volume of traffic cops you have in the USA a busa is going to do you no good. They will video you, get your plate - find your house and track you down. Thats if you get away and from what ive seen american traffic cops persue dangerous drivers/riders much more than any cop over here would so id just pull over and hands up.

I am not saying im an angel when it comes to keeping to the speed limits but there are certain rules. Dont endganger the lives of others - if you want to run the risk of killing yourself and no one else is going to get hurt then thats your choice but when other people are involved its not worth it.

In reality... those ARE all pretty weak as far as tickets go.  if you're going to whining about your tickets(that you were the DIRECT cause of) at least have them be of some significance-(sp?).  Until you've pulled a misdemeanor-(again, sp?) I don't find the need to share.  if the purpose of that was to prove you're a bad ass... you get an F.  I might be more inclined to think dumb ass instead.  You will more than likeley to plead down to much less severe charges with your DA anyway.  Now I have a little more respect for "illegal speed contest" and "wreckless driving" (though getting them is a STILL dumb...), as they are a little heavier in penalties.  And jesus... if you're going to speed, make it interesting... add a "failure to comply with police" and kick it up to 118 in a 55 MPH zone and dump onto a dirt road.  Then at least you'll have a story to tell...
