I had a cb750 honda back when I was 17. It was bored out and raced out for the time . I had it for just 3 months after getting it all built up . I had 1 ticket every month for the three months. Always speeding and no license . I only had a permit and wasn't supposed to be on the freeway. The last ticket did me in . I got caught going on the freeway in second gear with the front wheel in the air . Went from the on ramp to the car pool lane in one shot . Went by 4 cars on my way to 4th gear and then saw the lights come on . It took a mile and a half to pull over . I was off the bike waiting. Full felony stop by the officer as he thought I was running . I was actually slowing down . I was so far out on him he never got a speed . He did do me a favor at the time and wrote me just a ticket . He definitely could have taken me to jail . I was north of 120 . I got 4 unsafe lane changes 4 overtaking the car in front of me speeding at 85 in a 65 then he went after the bike . No license no helmet riding on a slick ,modified engine exhaust, suspension. I got a warning to never ride on the freeway again. I traded the bike for a 68 mgb and made it a street legal race car . Not all cops are bad guys!!
In this case the officer was trying to catch up to a chase that had blown through his jurisdiction which is a small town. He was going over 100 mph when he blew through a red light at a busy intersection and T boned the kids. We also had another case where a hearing impaired person was hit and killed. I get both sides. In Nola they had a no chase policy and the thugs would just never check up. No accountability. But no innocent person should lose their life over a traffic ticket.
Absolutely NOT!
How long ago was that?
Is that all?!?
Well, thanks for saying so! It either must have been close to the end of his shift….and/or the jail was too far away.
They have the technology already and it caused more problems than it solved. They used it in California for a time then it dropped from everyone's radar. The EMP pulse they used to "disable" the vehicle does just that, and other vehicles around them. Guess what happens when your power steering and power brakes no longer work... even at low speeds the danger to others was too high.
My older brother had the CB 750 also. I used to take it out on the road before I had a license. Cruise around the back roads. They were pretty quick. At least it seemed so at 14 yrs old.
