I think the future is looking bleak for motorcycles.
In an age where motoring is becoming more and more obsessed with safety, environmental friendliness, and reducing casualties, it's hard to see where we fit in.
One interesting thing I picked up at the beginning of that film.
The Police officer criticised the rider for doing over 90mph during an overtake.
The thing is he did slow back down again.
A Copper on the bikesafe stand at the NEC told me that when overtaking, it's important to minimise danger by getting past the slower vehicle as quickly as possible even if that means briefly exceeding the speed limit.
Provided you slow back down to the correct speed, you will not get nicked.
Maybe I missed something, but I don't think that rider at the beginning did anything wrong.
Maybe a bit proud of the speed limit, but a perfectly safe over take.
I can't see where the threat of un due care factors in.
This officer is just grandstanding for the camera.
