So, Sunday night after grabbing a couple of Dvd's, Me and another person witness a rather interesting thing. at approx 6:10pm,Officer on bike leaves lights at stockton(earville shopping centre) towards blockbuster turning to go towards town. Obviously see's something/someone he doesn't like (there was no loud exhaust or screaching of tyres) chucks a U-turn right there, rides torwards traffic on the wrong side of the road (lights have now gone green) cuts back throught the intersection wilst cutting off several cars in the south lane as well that have left the lights and speeds off into the distance (all for probly a miner traffic infringement)
Can somebody PLEASE tell me what right this tool has to pull something like this off??? Has he got a licence to right his own rules? these are people that we are suppose to respect and obey?? Huh...

Before a hand full of people tell me how I (or others I know) ride, I dont pull crap like this off, its stunts like this that give all bike riders a bad name, I just wish I caught his number or was in my chev leaving the lights cause I know I would have scared the crap out of him as bad as he would have me!!

man wtf? so he started riding into traffic? and then started cutting people off? what an idiot

some of the cops i have seen around should be writing their own tickets aye, couple of weeks ago, i was at the traffic lights around 5.30pm and this is when everyone has finished work so there is hundreds of cars, and i heard sirens from behind me, so everyone gets out of the road like we are suppost to, this cop drives threw, goes threw the lights and when he got to the other side, he turned his lights and siren off and drove off normally

Yea I have seen some pretty stupid things over time. Seen a D car try and come into a U turn at like 30 km/h in their stocko commodore and of course just understeered horribly and went straight off the road. Obviously had no idea how to drive, all to save a couple seconds which he actually lost anyways being stupid.

Cutting lanes, not indicating, all that sort of stuff is a common occurance, but at end of the day it is a common thing for everyone so I guess that makes it ok hm? Indicating is optional on the roads now I believe, so is courtusy and common sense!

[fast_babe]

what an idiot. and these are people that we are suppose to obey rules by... they give us speeding fines and dangerous driving fines... how about they over look what they do themselves...

[sinister]

Can't label 'them' like that, then you are just as bad as them labeling 'us' as hoons. There is always a minority that doesn't obey the rules or plays up and this gives the majority a bad name. Unfortunately people can disregard a lot of good efforts for 1 bad effort.

Most of the time they are not stupid and don't break the rules, but that's not to say they don't. Everyone does and so do they, just some some more than others.

The Police are ok guys, We just happen to have a hobby that isnt in there interests. If you ever are in an accident that isnt your fault or someone does something bad to you and you have no where to run they can be your best freinds and really are people you have to respect. All police are good people when you arent on the otherside of the law, its there job to be like that.

[fast_babe]

I hope so, it would be good to get a view from an officer or two. I get on fine with 99% of police officers (always be polite it helps alot) Its just when they are obviously breaking the law themselves that gets me wound up.

[SLAPPA]

I DONT LIKE THE POLICE & THEY DONT LIKE ME!!!!!!!

Ever since i had my UTE in Cairns the Police have never liked me.
but i never got done in my UTE but i got the blame for most of it.!
yeah i did a burnout or 2 give or take 2000+ but they still think if you were a hoon you always are a hoon.

good to see our tax payers money is wisely used, damage to police cars, i can think of some better ways to spend the money,

anyone notice how some of the cars have aero kits and mags, WTF it makes no difference


and for these kind of things note the plates down and report it, dont forward onto someone at the front desk, to their commanding officer is the way to go

[AE864thachicks]

Ya gotta think though, if its his or her job to uphold the law then thats exactly what they will do.
dodging traffic wrong lanes etc, if thats what needs to be done to avoid some poor child getting stabbed in a domestic situation then so be it. If you get hit in the process so be it practice makes perfect.

[SiKnEsS]

yer but they should be leading by example also,, if they cant obey the law they are enforcing than people will think that they dont have to,,, its like i saw a cop talkin on her mobile while putting fuel in her car lol so i took a pic 4 the next time i get upped for it

there is nothing special about their "interceptor monaro", i was at the airport, and i was with one of the feds, we did a insepction on it, nothing that special....

i dont know why everyone thinks its something special... they now have a Red SS commodore as their highway patrol.

[kimbyann]

[TTCV8]

you find the traffic boys like to make the story about their monaro like its 10foot wide and 10foot high, even though its a near stocker...., seems like that about the whole traffic branch, fact is they are just as stock as you could buy one from holden yourself (they talk about all their cars like this)

[1jzmz20]

there are always the small minority that will see it in themselves to be pricks and make themselves feel big but if u are polite and respect them then they will have a hard time being a bitch and even if the do ask them for there cop number and say u are going to report them if it is bad
