Stopped by Police?

got stopped by the 5 o, for running red light, said the whole scrapping off pavement thing, and y had i done it, i just looked bemused, with no explanation, he let me go, apperently its a 20quid fine, well thats wot he told me

we are lucky that the police don't confiscate our bikes, crush 'em and send them back to us in the post.. some police states use to do that on the continent, i think it was scooters in Amsterdam.. I might suggest that to Boris when I see him next.. peace
