    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....

    i live in lullanagar and i attend sinhgad college, and on my way i take a detour from nibm. so all together theres 4 spots where these cops stand
    1. Lullanagar junction
    2.Bakers point NIBM road
    3.opposite konark pooram society
    4. Near the nala ahead of ashoka mews

    i get stopped at these place almost everytime i pass by them. its very annoying although now the frequency of their checkposts is less but its still very annoying to be stopped by the same cops all the time for no bloody reason!

                • guess the cops aren't satisfied with their remunarations[no offence]so they tend to catch us....

                  • Till now, i've found that Bangalore Traffic Cops are soft and humane. I've got caught about 5 times. Once, i ran out like that. The other time i paid just 30 rupees(i'm a student). One time, i was caught for over speeding but the cop didn't take any money from me. Another Time, i was caught for Signal Jump, even that time i didn't pay fine.

                    The thing is you need to be compassionate and honest with them. Then, they wont trouble you.

                    • I remember in 2007 the day 1 on my brand new Apache 150 to office. The bike was registered and all papers with my DL was perfect, I was keen about run-in, was doing about 40Kph. Still the cop was asking 50rs as good will gesture, the reasons told were

                      1) You are the 1st person I met this morning

                      2) You are going to use the same road and we are going to meet often

                      3) You got a new bike, hence share the happiness. Sort of treating.

                          • Guyz who take Bangalore-Hosur Road, beware.
                            If you take the silkboard to e-city flyover, interceptors will be parked at the lay bye and also sometimes at the place where you get down from the flyover.
                            If you don't take the fly over then you might want to be cautious at every signal.Can't expect when they might jump right infront of your bike.

                            Interceptors will be placed at electronic city- especially infront of our college- PES School Of engineering.

                            Then sometimes highway patrol people will be waiting some 5-6 kms before the karnataka-TN border.

                            • I got caught on the Outer Ring Road near Nandini Layout doing 60-65 km/h as per the speedo on RTR160 on a 6-lane road . I might have crossed 70 during some steep downhill. The board mentions 60km/h for cars and 50 km/h for trucks. The cop said it's 60 km/h only for cars and 50 km/h for all other vehicles. Seriously, 50 km/h on a 6-lane road even for a HAYABUSA? I was in a hurry for some work. So paid the fine and left. These guys need to think more before setting those idiotic speed limits. That road is perfectly safe for 100+ km/h most of the time. There aren't many openings for jaywalkers too.

                                i am pretty lucky in this case i never came across them in 3 months of riding on the flyover. they have timings too. they usually come after 11 and go after 4 in the eve. i have seen them once on the opposite lane at 2 in the noon. Seriously they need to get a life instead of doing this.
