Looks like the dirty filthy snivelling c*nts will be targeting bikers with prejudice all next week, issuing FPN's and offering some condescending advice.

uffolk’s Inspector Julian Ditcham: 'It is disappointing to see that of the bikes stopped, nearly half of them were for a traffic offence. I would highly recommend that riders consider taking one of our motorcyclist workshops to improve their ability whilst on the road.'


So they find it disappointing that 50% of the riders they stopped were stopped because they had committed an offence? That suggests that they would rather that they had stopped more riders who had done nothing wrong.

Leicestershire’s Chief Inspector Phil Vickers said: ‘Along with enforcing the law our campaign also aims to offer advice to riders to help improve their road skills, make their riding safer and more enjoyable while also encouraging them to take further training, either through their local police or council road safety teams.’


In the last year of my apprenticeship plod came round and took all the bike riding apprentices out to teach us how to ride safely where to position your bike, obs etc I'm on a yam dt250 I couldn't keep up with the fuckers I was wringing the neck out of it as they disappeared into the distance, apparently back then faster was safer the bastards were obviously lying to me all those years ago cause speed kills innit!

They're obviously not real traffic coppers - they don't even have the regulation 'tache.
