Cotton eyed Joe Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Did you give it too much clutch and stall it or what man??? Sucks to hear about that. Hopefully you can get your bike back, and get any fines dropped if you can say you were riding on the side of the road getting from point A to B. But what about the guy that ran? Did they ask you about him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee0044 Posted July 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 hell yeq they did..they were gonig crazy on me thinking i was gonna shit myself cause im a kid...they knew who he was though from previous stops..he ended up turning himself in...but they didnt get ihim for naything but improper use on a roadway and they nailed him for registrtion which i didnt get... hes lucky they didnt get him for resisting arrest or whatever would apply there..illuding is it?

Cotton eyed Joe Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Yeah.. Here they call it illuding an officer, or evading an officer, or resisting an officer, there is even a "insulting an officer" law on the books. You tell a cop to go f*ck him self and you are looking at a court date. I think it falls under disorderly conduct or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Man, be glad! Eluding is a felony conviction here! And, as with everything, (no offense to any cops here, but..).. all of the cops I've dealth with take everything as the worst possible thing.. totally arbitrary. So if you didn't see them and just turned and drove home, they'd still get you on that since they can. Anyway glad you got out of it pretty well... good luck with the fines and getting it out of impound, etc. Hope it goes smoothly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txblueshee Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Yeah..

You tell a cop to go f*ck him self and you are looking at a court date.I think it falls under disorderly conduct or something. Actually my reciept reads "Evading/Resisting arrest or detainment from an officer of the law" . Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 if you werent out of gas why the hell did you stop. no cop car can even look at a banshee on the turf, stock or drag. ive thought about his many times before and i cant figure why to stop. i mean, no tags, no insurance, hell i dont even carry my lisence when i ride. the only reason i can figure to stop is if your riding something other than a banshee.

MULLET~BOY Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 there is no way i would stoped for a unmarked car and a crazy guy with a gun i woulda took off if they woulda tryied and charged me for not stopping i woulda said i thought it was just sum nutter with a gun trying to steal my bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganskinner Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 yeah i live in a very highly populated place and cops are swarming all the time. we just wait for the cop to get out, and then one kick and into the woods we go, straight home and lock up the evidence. i mean what the hell is he going to do? yell at you to stop? but yeah stopping is a good idea if the bike isnt running well, the cars around here are supercharged 5.0l ford crown vics and they will fly. not as fast as the shee, but they can get up and go.

PyRo_ZaCh Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 if or when they have a gun pointed at you thats a good time to listen, you never know if they might of had a bad day or somthing and they could always just say "he was trying to run me over"(when thier out of the car) or somthing like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Smoker Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 That sucks to hear that! It onlly takes a couple jerk-offs driving around on pavement all the time to really piss the cops off and get them after bikes. Then they don't care if you are just on the side of the road for a few seconds or taking the pavement everywheres. They just want to get bikes. Best policy is to not stop. They'll never catch you in a short distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 The biggest thing is... like they taught ya in drivers ed.. leave yourself an out! Haven't stopped for them yet, but the only spot they stand a chance of trapping me is on a decent sized overpass I cross on occasion to get to other trail systems. Just have to keep an eye peeled at all times along any public roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimp559 Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Power trippin cock/cop suckers. I got a ticket when i was 15 from an asshole cop. I swear he had a hard-on being able to give us a ticket. He went Baja off the road after us like a freak. Thats okay he lives in the same community now and is retired now. No more hidding behind the badge, so I'll get mine back sometime.
