The one thing i disagree with cops doing is holding back and hoping for you to do stupid shit. The cops should have pulled them over immediately eg for putting hands out and legs and driving dangerously. Cops secretly want you to run so they can chase and have a reason to treat the roads like a go kart track all for the reason of "chasing down".

Stupid bike rider =P, always check behind for a commodore or falcon before having a lil fun on the roads....

i also check for a silver camry, black evo 10, silver golf and a long list of other under cover cars that they use.

I echo this sentiment exactly. And who cares about swearing? I curse like a sailor at work, why is it different for police when they're in the privacy of their HWP car?

i totally disagree. they shouldn't be swearing they should've been saying "oh darn" and "what a silly goose", LOL. if i was the cop it would've just been strings of swear words, not just the occasional swear word.

i think you can also sort of tell from this thread they type of people who, when pulled over for a random stop, are generally polite, and those who probably get all defensive and start by saying "what'd you pull me over for? i ain't dun nuffin wrong? you're just picking on my coz i drive a hektic skyline" LOL

Lol @ The bloke on the bike running for just dicking around then! If he had done shit all wrong, then he had shit all to be worried about. Running from the police was the only reason they were in a pursuit. I know from my shitty experience with police pursuits, that they well and truely are not worth it. If i had stopped, i probably would have been on a 3 month holiday from my license. Instead, i got 2 years which i deserved. Another thing worth noting is because MOST POLICE break the pursuit, i was of the opinion i could easily get away like i had previously. If i hadnt had the one that chased me down, god knows how many times i would have done it.

hm, until you are polite and still you meet a dick of a cop who insists your stock front mount is a modification.

i say, there needs to be a transparent audit on the attitudes some cops have towards import owners. Why is it that I get shoo-ed away when i found parts off my stolen car for sale online, and get told "we are doing our best" but then never hear from them ever again? But i get pulled about half the times i take my R out for a drive. If they have the time to be out pulling over import drivers, i'm sure they can find the time hunting down some dodgy thieves and resellers.

As said the motor biker is a idiot, but it would be interesting to see what a police review would say about the constables actions in the chase....

Remember people, give way to emergency vehicles but "only when safe to do so".

Just reading between the lines OT, I gather that misuse of public money is going into gestapo policing methods? - when in fact their job description could be altered into more constructive use?

I'm assuming by "more constructive use" you mean a reformation of the duties of police?

Remove their free play time in the squad cars? haha

I'm keen to know all your opinions on this one...

What a story to brag to your mates, and grand children! come off it, this is the sort of thing a cop dreams of, chasing the baddies etc etc.. even though it turned out to be just some knucklehead who seems to have watched a bit too much Tron.

loved the un-edited version too, "f*ckin ram him, ram him!!" lol

I feel like they need to be told that they're giving the other top cops a very VERY poor name...

You do realize their orders/directive comes from the Top Brass?

It’s not giving them a bad name at all, it’s doing exactly what the majority of the community are lobbying for.

Enough of the “cop/police threads” that just turn into a story for “this is your life”.

If you want to do something… Then gather together similar minded people in your local electorate. Then go lobby your local parliamentary representative.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
