Big thanks to everyone that's joined! I think the point I'm trying to make is a good one. The police come roaring along in their big Volvo with seat belts, airbags, crumple zones and side impact protection systems, their blaring siren warning everyone they are there!
Then ticket a vulnerable road user like a motorcyclist for having a noisy pipe?
I'm not in anyway blaming the police, I'm fully aware of the fact they don't make the law, and are just doing a job, but it all seems a bit wrong to me.
When I fitted a can to my bike the difference it made is amazing! so many less pedestrians stepping out in front of you, car drivers actually know you are there! when I sit in traffic you see people looking around "whats that noise? oh it's that bike" BINGO they've seen you.
Anyway I'm ranting, sorry
