    Was scooting along on my bicycle just then thru the Johnston / Hoddle st
    intersection when I spied a copper (in a fully marked car) chatting away
    on his handheld mobile.

    Naturally I pulled a quick u-turn and started surreptitously pulling out
    my camera, unfortunately I _just_ missed out as the lights went green
    and he drove off - naturally still on the phone.

    I'm sure the Herald Sun would have lapped it up. Ah well.

    *** WSBK SPOILER ***

    And in other news, how good was last night SBK races? Lanzi's charge on
    the 749 at the end of the WSS race was great to see, and Walker's podium
    on the FP1.

    I believe that police are exempt from these rules. It would hardley be
    good that they could use radio/phone to find out where to go when they had
    to go somewhere!

    The Sun would like it because it is a trashy low-brow news paper! The
    current affair of hard copy.

    Cheers,

    I don't know about the rest of the country but police are exempt from that
    law in NSW. Gee it would be nice to make up the rules to govern yourself.

  7. Police are exempt under the Police act. We don't even have to wear seat
    belts as its an ohas issue of getting the gun out..

    Mobile phones are allowed, for work use..

    Same thing applies to all road rules :)

    Just sos you know..

    If I'm up your way can I hitch a ride with you and annoy the locals?

  9. Sure, and as I just found out, we can record a message on the loud speaker
    and have it play over and over again..

    we can say something like Harleys suck and park out the front of OMCG's

    oh you ride in the back, don't mine the blood and the yellow stuff..
