TLDR: what increase in pulls can i expect after calling a copper a cunt ?

On the way to work and pull up next to a car who is is in stationary traffic at a set of junctions.

He was already there when i pulled up and there was no gap for me to squeeze past. He clocks me in his mirror and I clock him clocking me etc and so forth. Still he was there first so i sit tight and wait.

the traffic moves forward a couple of feet and whilst still clocking me he holds his line stead fast refusing to give even an inch of space.

He still has a foot or two ahead of him so he could easily move forward and across a bit to make way for the 3 or so bikes now waiting.

I give it a few blips of the engine.
he looks at me in his mirror...
I motion for him to move.
he does nothing.

traffic moves forward and he waits as long as possible and then goes as slow as possible and holds as close line to the traffic island as possible.

He is already winding down his window as I go past...
I greet him with the traditional "what sort of cunt are you" while giving him the slow wank hand gesture.

He starts to say something and points towards all the fucking brass on his coat.

Not only a cunt but a cunt copper.

Much pulls to be hand in the foreseeable future ?

It depends on the popo, you could be looking at some public order offence or he might merrily continue with his day without giving it a second thought.

Expect many "random" stop checks and maybe a cheeky gloved finger in your darkest holes if he's a proper cunt.

Why a gopro? Wouldn't any other kind of bike/helmet mounted camera capture it?

I do not enjoy this politically correct society, that people are trying to establish here. Me foreigner, me English no well, me thinks gopro famous, everybody knows what gopro is.

So, any optical instrument for recording or capturing images, which may be stored locally, transmitted to another location, or both, would do.

'GoPro' is _almost_ becoming a proprietary eponym for 'helmet cam', but it's not quite in the realms of Hoover/Tannoy/Frisbee/Sellotape/Velcro etc just yet.

On the first such stop, OP has four options, not mutually exclusive:

1) Sell the bike.
2) Change the plate.
3) Ask the local Dibble nicely to remove the marker from the PNC.
4) Complain loudly to the local Dibble, they is be homophoboracialist against you, copper is well bent, need compo.

Heck, fire in with a pre-emptive complaint now. After all, we enjoy a statutory human right to skip the queue.

Or do nothing, which is exactly what's going to happen.

They are only eponyms if named after a person. Tut Tut Mr. Green More generally they are genericised trademarks.

But the intent is valid - GoPro is a perfectly understandable generic term for 'action camera', especially when put in this context. I bet most of you rarely actually go to a Cashpoint™.

Back to OP - poor obs, slack subframe, road ahead wasn't clear.

Maybe he was just trying to explain that he was bullied at school and now can't help it?

Your choice of words was bad. The best thing to do with cops is to steer well clear of them and not attract their attention. By insulting him, had he chosen to take your words to heart, he might have resented you and used you as a scapegoat for any other problems he may be experiencing. It really depends if he feels motivated enough to do anything about it, but if he was both angry and calm, he could have stopped your vehicle and found something wrong with it, either by bending the rules or interpreting the law unusually strictly. It's easily done. If a cop doesn't like your face, he can take your bike off the road by looking at it closely, and finding some imaginary defect. Is your pipe quiet and meant for road use? Did you know your bike is unroadworthy as the rocker cover gasket is grey instead of black in a couple of places? All sorts of excuses and made-up defects are commonplace with cops, and they'e fully aware there's no public sympathy for the victim 'I'm all right Jack'.

Basically this. If a car blocking you at the lights gets you that irate you might want to question if you're fit to ride.

OP, why disagree with this sentiment? It's truer than you realise. Riding in an angry state will lead you to making poor or dangerous decisions, and may end up putting you in a very compromising/dangerous position on the road.

You got angry because the guy didn't pull to the side and let you filter to the front of the queue. Firstly he's not obligated to do that for you and if he does then he deserves a nod or a thumbs up to say thanks. Secondly, you decided to shout profanity towards him when you did manage to get past which he did not deserve as he didn't put you in any danger or cause you to make any evasive maneuvers.

Then you realised he was a copper so came on here to tell everyone what a "cunt copper" he is for sitting in traffic like he's allowed to and is expected to do.

Anyway, stay safe Thumbs Up

Pffft, not if it's prefaced with proprietary.

If you don't believe me, wait 10 mins and then check Wikipedia...
