I was waved over by a bobby for RLJ today (it makes it worse that I was in Shoreditch). There was another bloke who was stopped aswell, and he really didn't like it. He began telling the copper how to do his job etc, at this point I started to think 'fuck, this guy is going to get us both tickets'. But much to my surprise the Policeman asked me if I knew I'd done wrong and just let me go. I would love to know what happened to the other chap. Doubt if his day went so well...
I mostly felt like a twat for doing it in plain sight of an officer of the law, but it should check my habits. And learning to track stand would encourage me to stop. To show off infront of others :)
