How often do you get 'told off' whilst riding?

[Drobium77]

Just wondering how often you guys get into 'run ins' with the general public or rozzers, etc.

I don't very often, but I have the habit of always going into places I should be. But, nothing ventured, nothing gained ay? :-D

Errrm, not often!

About two years ago I was shouted at by a Transit driver for 'filtering being illegal', apparently. Never been pulled over or spoken to by rozzers.

What can I say, my life is largely uneventful

Tooo often for silly things, ive had to get off my bike to talk to drivers who have the bollocks to shout at you then realise theirs red lights and have no where to go so i get off and try talk to them. and people who try tell me off like that hi vis tosser just get told to jog on

The best one i've had yet was some girl in her 20's chasing after me in the car through a car park for filtering past the barrier - ( which was allowed by security as we don't park on the car parking spots) shouting at me saying what i'm doing is illegal and she was going to call security and or the police, i just laughed and said go ahead they'll tell you to stop wasting their time.. Didn't have the camera on which is a shame, would have given a few people a good laugh

 

[CBRHoonigan]

Ugh theirs always people trying to be above themselfs

 

[MrFalloffalot]

All the Bloody Time!!

Shame is, when i dont have the camera on/recording to capture those 'Happy' moments...

Standing still a bike is 'Speeding' apparently...?

[O8ride]

[CBRHoonigan]

I love it, when they get lippy with you expecting you to be some 17 year old and then you get off the bike and they have that ooo shit moment

Had a running argument with a guy a few years ago that lasted a good 1/4 mile. We were "discussing" the finer points of why I had the right to be in the right lane of a road when he of course wanted to be in the exact same spot as me. I went into the other lane and he was insistent on "discussing" the matter. Thankfully the GSXR1000 I had at the time was effective at putting a safe distance between us in short order.
