H....have you had one through this morning squire? :dunno
Police statement.....
"At about 1055 hours, on Sunday ** September 2008 I was engaged on Traffic patrol duites in the area of ******* in the county of West Sussex. I was using an unmarked Sussex Police motorcycle. This vehicle is fitted with a Provida camera system which incorporates a calibrated Police Pilot device. This is a Home Office approved speed detection device, which gives the speed of a moving vehicle.
I was using the vehicle to gather evidence of speeding vehicles and was working with the rest of my team wh were acting as uniformed stoppers on marked police motorcycles. At this time, I was travelling east on the A272 ahead of me I could see a group of 6 motorcycles.
I accelerated and matching the motorcycle's speed began to follow them. The video of the Provida system was switched to record.
Having travelled through an area known locally as ********* the group began to overtake slower moving traffic. I was immediately behind motorcycle index *******. As this motorcycle accelerated I observed it's front wheel lift in the air. The actions of the rider demonstrated that the wheelie was a deliberate act. The rider kept the front wheel lifted high for about 4 seconds. During this time the motorcycle had accelerated to about 80mph.
At this point the A272 is restricted to the national speed limit of 60mph for cars, car derived vans and motorcycles. I continued to follow the group east towards ******** as they overtook slower moving vehicles.
Between ******* and ******* I was immediately behind 3 of the group as they travelled at speeds between 90 and 95mph. The index number of the 3 motorcycles were ******, ****** and *******.
I was still behind these motorcycles as I saw them being stopped at the roundabout junction of the A272 and the *** in *********, by PC****** and PC********"
No offer of being able to view the supporting evidence of the tape, simply a summons form to complete.
The statement doesn't tally with what happened either.......neither does the supporting PC's statement tally with the one above, neither does my date of birth, or postcode, which the summons states was confirmed by viewing my driving licence :roll
Careless and Inconsiderate for me, together with Excess speed.
Is our fellow stoppee from Basingstoke still with us on the board?
Ride safe gents :thumbup
