POLITE NOTICE: You're Nicked

[Grahamm]

When I had my Pan European, just wearing a high viz jacket made a big different even though the bike was slow red and I had a black helmet, people moved out of the way much better than whenever I didn't wear the high viz.

When I was doing my Direct Access, my instructor had a white Pan with yellow Hi Viz, white helmet and yellow Hi Viz jacket on.

One time we'd stopped at the side of the road to discuss something about the ride when a Police car came belting past, twos and blues going.

As it passed us, there was a quick Be-Beep from his horn, presumably because the driver thought my Instructor was a colleague 

Another time, there were some kids belting around an office car park on a Sunday in a go-kart and as we rode past, they suddenly looked very worried. When we came back a bit later, they'd packed up and left!

Not his fault if they can't tell the difference...
