Title: Reasons to not get a camera to record your riding fun
Post by: BBROWN1664 on 22 July 2016, 04:23:20 pm
Even if you don't ride like a tw@t all the time, the recordings can be used against you

Just saw this on the bbc.
What i want to know is, if they dumped the camera in the tunnel how then did they edit it with the comment "langley loses camera" or something similar at the end?


However they are twats.

They seem to have got off pretty lightly, just bans and fines.

I wonder if a deal was done there, and what's the low-down on copyright surly the police cannot use the footage without being given permission --- in return for lighter sentencing I wonder.
And yes - still twats

I always thought at around that sort of speed, you could be sent to prison!

Most stupid stunt was to dump it in the Hatfield tunnel, I mean, there's not going to be any camera's in there is there......doh

Should have all split and run, odds are there wouldn't have been enough police to chase all of them, dump the footage somewhere safe.

I had a friend who learned that stopping and saying sorry officer was a pointless experience..... Ahem.....

if he was riding like a cock, saying sorry wouldnt cut it really. this kind of thing is common in trumpland, usually with number plates removed. personally i dont think idiots would get away with it in this country because people like me will follow them and call the cops in. we have relative freedom to ride in this country, dont mess it up by riding like an arse....

Filtering between two static rows of cars and crossing solid double whites (I know what they're for but nothing was moving) 3 points, 38mph in a 30 at 23:30, 3 points etc etc, hardly riding like a cock, just cock head coppers. Had one pull me a couple of years ago in the car, no seatbelt, normally wear it at all times, just one of those forgetful moments when setting off. Fixed penalty, OK I can live with that but the copper said he was going to let me off with a fine......Focin idiot, thats all he could have done, if they want respect then focin earn it.

And you want to call them and report me?

No motorcyclist as far as I'm concerned!

i'm talking about the twats like in the vid. i'm no angel and i have my mad half hour like everybody else, but i dont want my biking freedom curtailed by wannabe yanks. in fact, i smacked a guy in town a few weeks ago for sitting at a pedestrian crossing hitting the rev limiter on his R6 and it raised quite a cheer from my mates who were riding through town with me. there are genuine bikers and there are twats....

Saw a twat the other day when I was in my car, reving the tits off an r6 or something at the lights then wheelie as he went and then zig zagging looking over his shoulder a lot in shorts and tee shirt and then the same again at the next lights all on a Saturday morning on the way to the town centre, its like he was wanting a chase from the police. The very noisy exhaust was enough to get attention echoing through the streets

The UK's got plenty of obnoxious white middle aged men on high end sports bikes dressed up in full racing leathers riding like twats here too, sad but true. :rolleyes
