Funny, that....

Act like an asshole...get TREATED like an asshole.

Seems like a fairly simple concept to me.

I've gotten fairly used to hearing people, up here, whine about their interactions with police.

I haven't been stopped in years (so now I've jinxed myself ) back back when I used to get stopped a few times a season on my bike, I would generally get a warning. Hell, one cop who stopped me for 30 Kmh (about 20 MPH over) in a 50 Kmh (30 MPH) zone took great pains to explain to me how unreasonably quickly the limit drops from 80, to 60, to 50. We then sat around and had a half hour long talk about motorcycles, in general.

And there are people on the local board who, for some unknown reason, get stopped frequently and are constantly asking for advice about how to fight their tickets. Then they start with the FTP crap, removing any doubt as to why they got the ticket; 'attitude test' failure.

I think that's the same video as the one that was posted second in the original post. But notice there is a cop with his lights on right away and the dude looks back? Yeah, if you weren't doing anything wrong, you might have wanted to pull off the highway and stop right then. Just a thought.

Apparently in Baltimore they got a dirt bike problem, if someone steals your dirt bike, check baltimore.
