Please read... cannot believe this just happened after West End Drinks

Really, I did it every time I got stopped during my time as a courier, which was frequently, given the way I rode, it worked every one of the 40 or so times I had a run in with them....only ever got one ticket.

+1 for getting their number. I find asking to see their ID before I give them any information is a marvellous game. Didnt work last time though (for riding across cambridge circus on a 4-way red light). To be fair, it might have done had said copper not made up some inflated statistics on how many peds are killed by cyclists every year, at which point I got tired of my usual polite-apologetic-i-know-the-law act (that almost always gets me out of a ticket) and replied "bollocks. Whats the point in lying to me? Who does that actually help?"

So I got his number. And that of his partner, who REALLY didnt like being accused of lying to me. And a ticket.
