Default BIG FINE!!!!!!!

Well , I pulled over a crotch rocket last night. Dude got $593.00 worth of tickets. I stopped him for his taillight being out ( I was just going to warn a fellow rider about the light), when I got closer I saw that his Registration was expired by 5 months, Then he tells me he does not have insurance, then I notice he does not have a motorcycle endorsement. I cut him a break by nottowing the bike,allowing him and his buddy to push it home. I hate when people think they don't have to comply. Just sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hard to let a guy like that off with a warning, seems like he just doesn't get it.

Do you really think they pushed the bike all the way home? That's a fist full of wrongs to actually believe he'd push the bike more than just out of your eye sight. I hope he doesn't hit one of us without insurance.

Yeah, but do you carry. And if so, legally or illegally.

I'm sorry, but bragging about your huge conquests does not impress me. So you busted some kid on a motorcycle for a tailight. Is it just me, I just don't understand how this becomes so news worthy? Perhaps busting some real criminals would be worth reading about. You never read muchabout that.

Since the forum has so many cops, why don't you request a new section for cops to brag about thier traffic violation tickets, so they can pat each other on the back.

I know my post may not seem respectful of LEO's, but everytime I read some moron post about giving out a stupid ticket, I loose respect. Are there not enough real criminals in your day to post about? Something news worthy, perhaps? In short your postis puerile and uninteresting. Maybe if you used more smileys it would be more pleasing to the eye.

Around here when cops pull someone over for a tail light they usually are onm a fishing expedition.


And I understand the need to be a law abiding citizen, but some laws are not worth following.

Gun laws are just one example.

If you ask me it didn't sound like he was bragging at all. Just making a point that was relevant to a motorcycle forum. If someone thinks they are above the law they deserve to be made an example of.

Well, I don't think he is bragging either, just making conversation.

I willing violate certain laws, but when I get caught I pay the penality without complaint.

I know the risk I take and I take them willingly.
