Pradeep reddy was along with me and we both were just wondering what these guys are upto.
So cool for them to mint money. Just stop a poor motorist and fine them with some damn reason.

their for this wud be that they are not getting enough salary like other govt servants like mla s

Stopped by the cops three times today.. twice by Interceptors, and once by a traffic police.. Thankfully, let off all the three times.. Was stopped for riding a TN Registered Bike, let off after verifying the papers..

One near Mysore Road, One at Domlur and One at HAL Junction. Just be careful, saw them twice at the same locations today!!

i never knew, this thread existed. i was thinking of starting this one....

i have faced this interceptor thing once. on the same stretch from bial to blr. the only difference is i was stopped twice!

hmm well actually once. the first time i was stopped for a speeding ticket was when i was doing around 70 on the speedo. as a good gentleman i just stopped as intended by the cop and then the regular blah blah... their claim was again the same as in your case. speed limit is 60kmph for 2 wheelers

. what ever, i just ended up paying 200bucks without any chalan

. soon after i was horrified when i saw another interceptor near jakkur

the reason- i was pissed off and was doing 90 on the speedo!

i just decided that i wont stop this time. and i didnt stop

...

but i truly appretiate one thing. these people have gained good experience and skills in stopping 2 wheelers, no matter how fast you are...

i hav travelled on the stretch at a speed of 120 in taxi, 100 in my dad's car, and once easily over 130 in my friends car... its just hazzle free no matter how fast you are. but always remember one thing that over 60kmph on two wheels is RASH DRIVING!!!!!

Bangalore cops do create some basic awareness amongst people.

Did anyone notice a red crashed Verna , in front of Garuda mall, wearing big nameboards that said "MY DRIVER WAS DRUNK" ? That verna didnt have any A,B nor C pillars. It was scrap. I earlier saw the same verna in the KR Puram police station i guess.

I was surprised that the police take these kind of initiatives for passing a message to the public.

yeah saw that couple of days back in front of Holy Trinity church @ the beginning of MG road.

That really was a good initiative. more of a reminder.

I thought the police cannot stop anyone now for anything other than traffic violations??

I dont think thats happening / that will happen. The police will continue to stop us at their own will.. Leaving to Chennai in another hour or so, Hope the police wont stop me again!!

they have written orders from the police commissioner, i doubt they would want to invite the wrath of the general public since the order has been presented to us by the media and published in the papers.

What I do is keep a copy of that article. Both in english and in Kannada. So that I can show them whenever there is an incident like that.

Don't be dude. It's the usual thing by the cops...they say the same thing to everyone...

EDIT: Everyone who looks from 'North'.
