good story! if you'd known the roads better reckon you would've got away? or would they have called the chopper in?
"i find that if you don't break the law the police tend to leave you alone."
but the law on how bikes should use the road is generally agreed to be shit (and prejudicial to cyclists' safety...). so the only reason to obey it is the risk of it being enforced. there's no moral reason to obey shit law just because it is law, if it can't be enforced.
