Not all cops are assh0les. Most are........ but not all.
« on: April 05, 2012, 11:00:15 AM »
Got stopped on my way home from work last night for nipping into the bus lane to get past some stationary traffic in a queue. 2 cops had just passed me going in the opposite direction on police scooters so they obviously took a liking to my little Kymco and wanted a betrer look at it  ::) They mustve U turned as soon as they passed me and been following me from a distance. Soon as i cut back into the traffic queue i got the blue lights come on behind me and turned to see a copper on a scoot sat beside me  :o "Just pull over round the corner will you" , " Yes officer, no problem" lol.

They checked out all my details and saw i was 100% legal etc, gave me some sensible advice, then we had a general chat about riding and scooters before they told me to ride safe and enjoy myself "but keep out the bus lanes" . I honestly assumed i would get a ticket but i didnt, they were genuinely nice guys and i feel the way they dealt with me was great. I honestly will not drive in THAT buslane again and will head their advice. Had they come on all petty and been a pair of dicks about it then i wouldve had no respect for them or their words and would prob ignore anything they said, as it was i will respect their advice and take it on board.

Shame a few other cops dont take on this kind of policing method, it could work wonders. So to conclude, all cops are not evil sons of satan, some are normal human beings just like us.

Its an electric scooter, think it was called a Vectrix or something similair. Said they liked them a lot, had heated grips and everything on it.

New York city cops a generally REAL guys. Not sweating the petty sh** as it wewe. Florida cops on the other hand are Mostly out for points, and will give you the "stop resisting" bit every chance they get. Maybe they don't have to pay for ammo/taser batteries here, as they Do in NY.

Good job they didnt take Kymco Bob for a quick spin since he's only meant to do 31mph  ::)

I just wish all cops were like that.

I just peed my pants! Cops might read each others dipsticks ;D




Seriously though, most of them are good people. I've been through several license check points and other than gettin right in my face to smell my breath they just ask: "Is that a 50?" Yep. "So you don't even need a license for that do you?" Nope... "Damn, sounds good. What did you do to it?" Exhaust. "Alright have a good day."    Brrrruuuhhhheeeehhhhh    Peace piggies!

In Missouri, this lack of what's legal has gotten many of my friends pulled over, hassled, and wrongly issued a ticket.  You would think they should at least know that.

While she was 'flying' down the road , a woman passed over a bridge only to find a cop with a radar gun on the other side lying in wait.

The cop pulled her over, walked up to the car, with that classic patronizing smirk we all know and love, asked, 'What's your hurry?'

To which she replied, 'I'm late for work.'

'Oh yeah,' said the cop, 'what do you do?'

'I'm a rectum stretcher,' she responded.

The cop stammered, 'A what? A rectum stretcher?
And just what does a rectum stretcher do?'

'Well,' she said, 'I start by inserting one finger, then work my way up to two fingers, then three, then four, then with my whole hand in. I work from side to side until I can get both hands in, and then I slowly but surely stretch it, until it's about 6 feet wide.'

'And just what the heck do you do with a 6 foot azzhole? ' he asked.
 'You give him a radar gun and park him behind a bridge...'

Speeding ticket: $105,

Court Costs: $45,

Look on copper's face: Priceless....

The fines im ok with, it'd be worth the fine just to see his face lol.

Over here we got a points system, 3 points minimum for speeding and a fine tho it can be an automatic ban if going over 100mph (on an Agility 50??? Yeah right). Get over 12 points and you get a ban too. Last i looked at my license i was on 6 points from 2 speeding offences, not from riding tho. If they had wanted to be strict i couldve got another 3 points and a fine too.
