covie Posted December 13, 2010 Share Most of these laws can be broken down into very simplistic formualtions, and if you follow these you will never get in trouble, even if they were actually enforcing any of these. 1. Reflectors, a judge will acept if you only have reflector or light at the rear. while driving in daylight conditions. Its not mandatory for a car to have reflectors in the front. However riding in dusk or in the dark would obvsiously require a reflector or light in the front not only for your saftey but so you can see where your going so this is pretty much moot if you love your life. 2. obey the basic rules of the road, like stopping at red lights. 3 ride single file to avoid becomming road kill. the rest was just put in there to fill up the blanks.

DaLoCo Posted December 13, 2010 Share Trying to find out if the people who say they don't break laws are telling the truth are really not. All laws are equal. Also just putting the laws out there for everyone Hmmm...trying to figure who your moral underlings are then?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyatt Earp Posted December 13, 2010 Share Read this and then let us know if you do or don't break the law Admin should make this PDF stickyYou know what's criminal, the fine and then the discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_w_65 Posted December 13, 2010 Share IMo your motivation should have been your second point. That was my main reason but also nice to show the hubbers that claim they never break laws that they are just as guilty as the rest of us. Except maybe TrekSLR and lone ranger but I have my doubts.

chris_w_65 Posted December 13, 2010 Share You know what's criminal, the fine and then the discount. It is extorsion. It is not even a discount, they doubled all the fines first. Maybe they consulted with Cajees on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Low Posted December 13, 2010 Share .... All laws are equal. I think that is only one point of view, and not a very sensible one at that. There are numerous ways that laws are not equal & it seems most people's common sense tells them this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

covie Posted December 13, 2010 Share Contrary to popular belief these are all old laws comming from the days when the NP still governed, why is everyone so amazed all of a sudden. Hell i remember being taught this stuff in Sub A when they taught me how to look left and right and left again before crossing a road. These arent laws because a law is something that gets enforced. This is merely a blotch on a peace of paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icycling Posted December 13, 2010 Share If those are the Laws - I would suggest the Laws have broken the Laws! Remember kids (people under the age of 18) are allowed to ride on the roads - these laws would they easily understand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
