So you paid a bribe. Easy way out huh? Easier to blame cops as corrupt when the public itself is fueling this corruption.

Hah !!! It takes two to tango my friend.

My friend knows there are interceptors at BIAL, when ever he passes that stretch he used to increase speeds 90+ and keeps flickering his lamp at the cops and no one dares to stop him

Sorry, i didn't get this part... is that supposed to be an achievement?

P.S. Not intending to be rude, but please dont post such details here. This forum strives to motivate good riding habits.

Exactly my thoughts as well. Some of the last posts depict as though it was an achievement to get caught for over-speeding or evading cops.

i blame this trend all on fast and furious 5

always carry all your documents with you.

as as far as overspeeding is considered. either do not do it or take it to a level that before cops can even start their bikes, you should become invisible.

yesterday, a funny thing happened, two cops on their bike (Painted white and yellow - age old fiero) chased and caught a guy on an R15

and was fined for overspeeding

. poor guy. i was watching them.

Oh I went through the whole thread just to see if anyone had gone through my situation ... Its funny I guess, I mean after telling the cops at challaghata inner road (they apparantly shifted there from the main road) that I only have 50 rs with me as its the last week of the month the guy actually asked me for the 50rs and my PEN which I had in my shirt pocket .... A PEN ?? NOW COME ON ISN'T THAT HEIGHTS ???

This is seriously the heights! Did you report this in the Bangalore Traffic Police FB page?

**ilanjai** · 09-26-2011, 04:08 PM

I had this strange incident last week. I was waiting for the Green signal at a traffic light near Kammanahalli, on my R15. As soon as I saw Green, I took a right where the traffic cops stopped me. And he claimed that I jumped the signal, when I did not. He demanded Rs 200/- for the same. I told him that I did not jump the signal. After some argument he did not budge and I had to settle for a challan of Rs 100/-.

Is there is a site where I can log a complaint against this incident.

**--HunK--** · 09-26-2011, 04:19 PM

Unnecessary Challan..!!!

That all happen because some of us the bikers and richi rich guys just to save our neck and time pay the desired bribe and get our self free from trouble...that the only reson i have discovered till the date..!!!

This one actually I didn't because it seemed more of a laugh to me than anything more. Guess the suggestion from now would be "if no money then carry a Parker or sheaffer or some shiny pen in your pocket"

Where did this happen in Pune???
As as far as i have read cops cant stop any rider unless you break any traffic rule....
The first mistake you made was speeding away... its like inviting a mad bull to hit you...
Secondly as it is always pointed always carry your documents and even if things dont work out..... Park your bike.. take the key.. tell him to come to the nearest police station with the challan book... in the police station ask him to furnish the proof... always keep the option of lawyer and RTI as a last resort....
This has worked pretty good for me....

Yuck! At this rate cops won't hesitate to ask our shirts if we are wearing a Louis Phillipe or some such stuff

Wanted to post here. Be very careful on ORR after 4:30 PM. Cops favourite spots:-

1. After Coffee Day in Marathalli, while going towards KR Puram.
2.Opposite to EMC2.
3.Banaswadi ORR

Was aware of the cops on the main road and also here but didn't expect this ... The cops apparently shifted here after the recent resident complaints because of a nearby bar there .... And thanks for the other places as well .... Good to know info

especially since I love riding around in the morning. Since we won't find any crazy teen racers or traffic and if lucky may actually find our xBHPian brothers

**eliksir** · 09-26-2011, 11:10 PM

Have spotted an interceptor along Banaswadi ORR, almost everyday between 5-6pm atleast for the past two weeks

ROFL.

Since the speed limit is 60, I assume you can ride at 60 without getting into trouble. But cops of an interceptor stationed at Kanakpura Road just before YDIT college caught me and showed me the speed reading of 60. Since they are not supposed to stop us unless we break the law, I argued with him that 60 was accepted and anything above that is illegal, the cop asked for my licence and other documents. Since i had only my licence and not my insurance or RC, he immediately showed off his blackberry and told me if I dont cough up Rs 500 on the sopt, he would book me for much more. Since i didnt even hav Rs 200, I tried to argue with him that I hadn't broken any law for him to stop me. But he snatched my keys and loaded my bike onto the tow truck and printed out a receipt for Rs. 800!! Thats 300 for overspeeding 300 for insurance and 200 for RC. I saw an ATM nearby and withdrew the cash and paid up luckily because if they had towed the bike, they would've charged Rs. 250 more for that!
Moral of the story: You are always wrong and the school that educated you is at blame for making you believe that this is a fair world!

**NitinGirish** · 10-16-2011, 01:35 PM

Speed limit on most stretches for two-wheeler is 50.
