Did anyone hear of the traffic cop in America who clocked a fireblade at 208mph on a highway, from a helicopter? The factory superbike team manager actually sent a letter to the judge saying they spend $800.000 getting a standard fireblade to get to 200 mph replacing most of the engine, and if standard blades did over 200 they would save a bunch of monies. The judge ruled for the traffic policeman because he was "highly trained in the use of portable radar".
In England, a judge was shown to be travelling at 90 mph whilst seated on his throne in a speeding case with a kawasaki rider. The defendant aimed the gun, moved it slightly and got a reading of excessive speed. The judge ruled for the police because they are highly trained and don't make mistakes.
Not just the police that have zero sense of justice and fair play or even reality, then.
