The first time i got pulled over he chased a while with the lights on before he caught right to me for me to realise I was being pulled over... Unfortunately the road i rode along (completely oblivious to the police car in fast pursuit with lights flashing) took me straight past my dads work (with him standing out front :doh: ) and the corner I was pulled up on was just around from my school, just as every single bus filled with kids went past taking them to school :doh: :doh:

Yep - 3 x 10 (8) metres per second is pretty fast.
It would be pretty impressive if you could ride faster than that!

(I know that's not written correctly - just can't be bothered trying to figure out how to type scientific notation on this keyboard)......

First time I got pulled over I was 14. Pushbike and no helmet. Apparently I was too old to be given a warning yet out of all the kids that got busted (some older than I) I was the only one who got fined. Just outside the school gate so everyone could see it happen. $41 was a lot of cash for me back then.
