I was riding my normal route around my block when the police decided to pull me up, apparently he had a number of complaints from people that a bicycle with a motor was riding around recklessly.
1.) I'm not the only person in my area who has a motorized bicycle
2.) I stick to the road rule completely and i know the laws in my area about motorized bikes.
3.) I'm pretty sure i know who the police officer was talking about when he was telling me how and i quote "male rider, speeding and no helmet with a loud exhaust". was riding.
If the police officer even payed attention to my speed, and exhaust and helmet he would notice that my exhaust has a silencer and i wear a dirt bike helmet and i do under the speed limit.
I was a nice guy to the officer and he still decided to slice my tires, and gave me a $200aud fine. reasons for the fine; Unsafe bicycle and no rear reflector. how is it unsafe? like come on... just before he left he said "walk it home".... no sh#t officer like i'm really going to rim bash it home?
Now i have to buy brand new tubes and tires. I only not long got a new set which he cut up. I feel like punching the other rider in the eye but then i'd get charged with assault lol
I really hate when other people wreck things for others by doing stupid things. They will end up getting the laws changed here in Australia..
