I somehow can't see a police ossifer accepting that as an excuse from a civilian. Driving tired is almost as bad as driving drunk.

Yes, but if the job involves 12 hour shifts, and your job is driving/riding, there are relevant laws regarding length of breaks etc.

So long as they are applied, then if you say it's the end of your shift, and you're knackered, I'm sure most wouldn't have an issue with it.

I stalled and straight away thought "Oh f*ck!" still holding the throttle open hoping that the bike would just go. Started her up again, gave it about 6000revs (500 more than I should've 'cause of the running in) let the clutch out rather quickly and sped off very, very embarrased! I think two cars got through behind me!

Well I was on traffic at time of my off, not been back operational since, somehow I don't think I will be again though LOL (our traffic is the bike team).

My very very good mate is the bike Sgt and he appears human, in fact all the guys seem human so I have to disagree with ya there since they my mates LOL.
