siggywiggy Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 i have had 18 speeding tickets in 13 years. Plus one license suspension. This year on the bike i had it on the back wheel and got caught. wreckless op reduced to 4mph over the speed limit resulting in no points. I was again about a month later on the back wheel, this time with a friend trailing a few hundred yards back when i saw a light bar come over a hill about .5mile ahead of me. I set it down and of course he saw the whole thing so he begins sliding his suv left of center. I down shift to second, slow down to around 45 i guess. When i get to about 100 yards from him i just hit the throttle and away i run! He does a 3 point turnaround burning tires etc...he chases me back up over hill only to find out that i am nowhere and i mean nowhere in site. He then turns back around to hunt for my buddy. My buddy had already pulled a u turn and was a good mile and a half in the other direction. The cop was relentless and pursued him but he managed to cut up a back road which we both grew up on and got away. By the time he called me on my cell i was 15miles away back at my house covering up the bike inside the garage lol. Jumped in my car, picked him up and finished our bbq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBartolucci4 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Just FYI the reason motorcycle enforcement is going up and you are seeing more bikes stopped is because the department of public safety is THROWING money at agencies for motorcycles because of the explosion in solo motorcycle crashes. To me it seems the reason the crashes are going up so fast is simply more (inexperienced) riders - and in my opinion a better way to fix it is to create more Motorcycle Ohio classes to help teach the new riders to ride better and smarter.

InyaAzz Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 MSF is a great class....MSF FTW! But there isn't a class in the world that will stop someone from being a dick on two wheels. Some of these crashes are caused by idiots trying to test the laws of physics while on two wheels. A schooled idiot is still an idiot.

everoblivion2005 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Actually that is not entirely true. I haven't had one on a bike. I've had 2 in a car since. As far as age goes...older and wiser since I seem to be able to drive turbo'ed cars without getting tickets. you got me there, it's just not worth it anymore to speed or do stupid things. since my license got suspended on a DUI i got after my divorce (can we say WAKE UP!! call) i don't mess around anymore. i just follow the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomking Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 OK here is my story for "JUST THIS SEASON" The Cops don't like me1. Sundusky ohio bike week June 6th:I rode my bike, wife and 5yr old daughter followed in a car, checked in the Days Inn on route250 then around 8PM planned to ride to Roeder Harley Davidson (the bike week CPU) which is about 3/4th mile from the hotel. So my wife jumped on the back and I put my daughter in between me and the gas tank and off we go at less than 25 mph. Well, a cop pulled behind me at the parking lot and said his supervisor saw me on the road and called him and it's a "child endangerment" and I have to go to the jail and bailed out. NICE. So with the handcuff (they didn't do it infront of my kid) off I go in the sqaud car to Erie County jail (first time in my life). The officers heard my story and released me witout bail due to overcrowding of the jail and I come back in about 45 minutes to party:). The following Monday (Jun8th) was my court date, so overstayed a day. The judge read the charge and asked what I do...where I am from etc....he was so nice and told his assistant that is inappropriate and he wants to drop the "child endangerment charge" but he needs the approval of the bar committe. So I then explained the situation to the bar committee and they agreed to the judge and he told me that the court will drop the charge and make it a minor traffic violation so I paid 95 bucks including court fee and no points. Came back home happy. Nice outcome 2. The weekafter riding back home from QSL bikenight wednesday Jun 11:I just took the I480 east from 77north, wasn't speeding a popo pulled me over, shit DUI??? Just a couple of beers.....Nope he told my license plate is slanted under the undertail, he could not see it, I have to move it back...then he checked the license, verified the ownership of the bike and let me go. NICE COP. But I did not move the license plate.3. That very weekend Saturday 14th:I was riding with my daughter in the rocky river reservation. A North Olmsted cop followed me for a mile.....we were all up in helmet and gears...then flashing lights.....shit...He gave me violation ticket for the license plate...no charge, I will have to do the modification and show it to North Olmsted police station...still better. Changed it and showed it the following Tuesday.4. Panini's and Liquid Fusion Night club West 6th Street Monday July 7th:Who hangs out on a Monday....I do...was just chillin...was going home around 2 AM (bad boy) just started the bike, a popo asked me to turn off the key and asked to take off the helmet and then asked whether I was here for a while or not, I told the truth. He then told me that I have to park the bike in any public parking lot and arrange a ride home otherwise DUI.......shit....I didnot argue, again just a couple of beers but may be just above legal limit. He told if the bike is gone that night....DUI in mail. I Called my wife, parked the bike on a parking lot on lakeside avenue and got picked up at 2.45 AM. Next day morning I retrievd the bike. Thanks to my wife for bearing with me .5. On I-271 near Macedonia July 13th Sunday:Well got little late for the ride that was planned for from 356 Fighters group Canton. Started in rain...little fast...those areas are cop infested but Sunday 9AM !!!! Pulled over. The cop told me that I shot past him. He was in a white SUV with a thin light bar never saw him on the extreme right lane in a three lane freeway in rain ....shit. I was doing 95-100. He told that I was over 90. He didn't clock my speed though and asked me repeatedly what speed I was going at..."Officer I am sorry I did not notice", never confessed. He called another cop and took 50 minutes to write me the ticket, which say "reckless operation at more than 90mph in rain"....mandatory court date on July 30th. Spoiled that planned ride and killed my day, although I went that afternoon to the canton fest and met the few folks.Thats my story........So am a genuine "SQUID" now ??? need rehab......I think you need to start riding a 4 wheeler in the deepest woods you can find.....that's some bad luck !!
