Pigs got me, finally

[scottyj]

In attempting to avoid death at the hands of a semitrailer steering into me I took yesterday the instant decision to drop 2 gears and get the hell out of dodge. This was interpreted by the sneaky pig with the radar as an ideal opportunity for some fun and the brief pursuit resulted in a megafine and enough damage to my licence to guarantee my riding around like I am on a scooter. Cops don't care about mitigating circumstances. Sorry, just mad like hell and need to vent. Speed kills my ***. Idiots, drunks, incompetants and sheer bad luck kill. Being told how to ride by some *** that was ****ting his nappies when I riding Ducatis was enough to make me cleave his head in two. I now have 3 years of being good. Don't like being good. No fun. Any cops on this forum, tough, get a better job.

IBTL. This is going to go over well.

Such eloquence.

Chances are you can only fight the ticket if you have a way of proving that you had to speed up to avoid an accident.... (like you had a bike mounted camera on at the time or a helmet cam).

Otherwise, you'll probably be outta luck because it'll be the cops word vs. yours, and we all know how that'll play out in court... lol

Look on the bright side though.... at least you just got a ticket and didn't get crushed by that truck instead.

Only words of wisdom I can offer is to always remember to SEE: Scan the roadway for potential hazards - potholes, a**holes, etc. Evaluate the hazard and formulate an escape route. Execute the plan if needed. Always think that the others on the road can't see you - which for most - they truly can't with their face in their lap texting, or calling or looking at the gps instead of focusing on controlling the vehicle. While it stings to get a fine, it sure is far better than being turned into a road crayon.

Then ****ing slow down. *ding**ding**ding* winner.
No need to be flying by trucks acting like your the man. The cops doing his job tracking down people like you. Get over it.

I smell tard.

[billybob]

Wow... Gee guess on that note I will go get a better job.... NOT.

We just write em as we see em. I have even paid my own fair share cause I was the one controlling the vehicle. My responsibility. Although...Attitude does have alot to do with whether a ticket gets written or not.

From the OP's intro thread:

Took me a long time to recover from last friend I put in ground, but life goes on. A timely reminder to keep active in assessing risks, all the time.
