Okay so I'm guessing tha tmost of you have probably heard about that new program that the RCMP and the provincial government have put together which gives Police Officers the right to suspend a driver's licence, on the spot, if they think they have been involved in street racing. This is all due to the number of recent street-racing related eaths there have been in the past few weeks.
My question is, where do you guys think that we fit into this? If we're out riding with just one or two friends, and we're going fast (as we sometimes tend to do) then do you think the cop would think that we were racing each other? Or do you think they would understand that motorcyclists just like to ride in groups, and that just because we were all going fast, we weren't neccesarily racing. Because really, when you're riding in a group, you do sometimes go REALLY fast...but you usually keep it very organized, with a leader and everyone falling in behind that person...not too much passing, and certainly no aggressive passing.
So my question is, what do you guys think a cop would do if he were to pull over three of us that were going 160km/h in a 100km/h zone on the highway?
