I'm a bit confused why a Motorcycle cop is able to actually stop a BUSA? I'm not advocating running from our wonderful tax collector...err.....police force.....but in general I think motorcycle cops single out other motorcyclists because they view themselves as some sort of biker behavior improvement specialist.
I've only had one ticket in my life riding a motorcycle and that was given to me by a motorcycle cop. I got a ticket for failure to come to a complete stop at a stop sign. I did everything BUT put my foot down but for all intense purposes was stopped. I wish now I had gotton a lawyer but I just paid the damn thing. Just the principle of the thing. The cop was right in front of me at the stop trying to radar speeders. I even waved at the f'ing guy in typical biker fashion before he pulled me over. Maybe the thought I gave him the finger or something lol....well I can tell you that is sure as sheet what I give cops now.
I have zero respect for police anymore, not just because of that dumb ticket, but because this whole watching out for my safety is the biggest crock ever invented. There are two kinds of people in the world, those that need to call a cop when they need help and those that don't. Only reason I'd ever see a cop is if someone calls one out to come get me, or is giving me a ticket. What possible sympathy should I have a a profession that can ONLY be negative for me? So to pipe in my opinion...sell the babies dirty diapers and pay to get a lawyer...no matter the outcome you'll not be left wishing later you fought it, like I did.
