So today I was working on my dirt bike and decided to road test it, which is illegal in WA to ride an unlicensed vehicle on the streets. I was riding around the side streets around my house looking for oil leaks, testing the clutch and brakes and then cops pulled me over. They unwound their windows and all 3 of them told me it was a courtable offence what I was doing. Moreover they said this type of offence they cannot issue cautions for. They kept reinforcing that I had to attend a court hearing and all I could reply was acceptance sighs.

They preceded to ask my details: Name, d.o.b,, where I lived and where I was from. I told them I moved over from Victoria. They questioned why I moved and I said that I was hiding from my football team. The cops asked what team it was and I replied "Melbourne Demons". They wound up the windows and had a chat amongst themselves laughing in he car. They wound down the windows and said I'd suffered enough pain this year and said that I had to walk the bike back home and let me off with a caution.

To all my fellow demonlanders, this is what I call good karma from being a loyal supporter. Thanks for reading my story If you have similar stories of how you've benefitted from being loyal to your team, club, wife I would enjoy reading them.

Cheers

LOL

And who said the WA Police are all hopeless?

Wait it was me.

U r one lucky bugger brb.

I pulled over with smoke coming from under the bonnet of my car. Not knowing the source, I rang the RACV and gave my rego number as MFC 16. The person on the other end of the phone replied "Melbourne Football Club? We can't have you stranded, I'll have someone there straight away." A serviceman promptly appeared 10minutes later to assist.

MFC & RACV my saviours.

Hahahaha great story mate!

Great story. I don't even care whether it's true or not.

I hope they throw all those yahoos on their dirt bikes into prison straight from the court attendance.

Seriously I'm all for public safety but you'd think you'd let the Police have some discretion to issue a fine or not. Complete waste of money if you had to rock up to court for it.

haha, love it!

The killer line which has me rolling around on the floor was "I was hiding from my football team". Wonderful.

Pennant st dee is a cop isn't he?

I'm hiding from my football team....f'n classic.

Hehehe. Cheers. I has been a tough 7 years.

I once got off a speeding fine because the cop supported the Dees and I gave him a detailed description of the game the day before
