Harassed, Who is being harassed.

I was pulled over,(in my own driveway) just after the crime control act come into affect, asked the association questions, no issues, copper apologized for taking up my time and left
stopped at a breatho, nothing said

maybe here in sunny Whyalla we are lucky I guess

I've had the occassion where I didn't even get out the driveway, they were sitting across the road in a servo and as soon as the roller door went up over they came.

They weren't  in a social mood , surprise surprise! 

 

that was a good one Bucket, member of HOG, not take serious.

I was just saying I have not been stopped (harassed) or pulled over unnecessarily, some people appear to draw attention more than others.

Na Bucket not a hogy just a rider.

Geez some of you guy's get it easy, every time ive came across a rbt or similar while on the bike i can see the police's faces light up from 300 meters away, have even seen em wave a car over until they see a few of us bikers approaching then wave the car on so they can consentrate on us bikers......but now to eat my words, i was gob smacked at easter when i was driving the car, there where 2 lanes, 3 cars and 3 bikes travelling in a group, the cops pulled over the 3 cars and let the 3 bikes through, but to add value to my opinion the cheers and yahoo's where clearly heard from the bikers as they rode through.
