    I lost my drivers licence at 15 yo for Drunk riding and given the police a bit of a run until I turned off my head light to get away and hit a railway line doing about 80 klm/h I couldn,t run to far after that. When I was 14 I lead the police on a 2 hour chase on my mates brothers KLX 250 they only got me because I run out of fuel

    Can I learn anything about the English in this thread ? But for your information I had a couple of stints on probation in my past for offenses such:

    ** Possession of marijuana
    ** Possession of a stolen firearm
    ** Assault
    ** Breaking & Entering

    Just your normal everyday septic trailer trash sort of offenses. And all prior to joining the world's finest Navy many years ago.

    Nope. I had a choice but I figured if they were kicking me out of the county I might as go as far away as possible. I did join in that era though. It isn't allowed anymore ... my son learned that lesson the hard way.

    C'mon, stealing other squirrels' nuts? You can still vote because it's an anonymous poll. Unless dd can somehow crack that code, too.

    I was once arrested at gunpoint under the prevention of terrorism act. For sledging in the snow.

    Silly me, wanna change my vote, just realized I was sentenced to more than five years but paroled in 20 months.
    Learned how to properly buff a concrete floor in Uncle Sam's hotel.
    'Bout the only (legal) thing I learned while down. later in life I was before the judge again. They (dept of corrections) claimed to have taught me "heavy equipment repair" Did that on my own in the Operating Engineers, but hell, let 'em take credit they felt so good about what they'd done they cut me a hell of lot of slack. possible 0 - 10 year sentence I got 90 days! coulda been my third felony (non violent but always in possesion of a piece). 10 years after I was able to get all my convictions overturned to misdemeanors.

    I got a 500 quid fine for sparking a traffic warden out once. The fvcker was totally 'jobs worth'.

    My fiance's dad was the local magistrate. Laughed his cock off.

    BTW he wasn't allowed to judge the case.

    last night after a cricket committee meeting at the clubhouse on soi 33, i'm sedately riding my bike home, as i get to the Asoke intersection a pair of cops on a motorcylce pull up beside me

    pig 1: "stop stop - over there!"

    one of them graps me by the belt as I try to ride the bike over to the curb ( in front of a shit load of oncoming traffic )

    Here we go i think - anohter shake down"

    pig 2: "you been drinking"

    me: "no i havent"

    pig 2: "you been drinkning" "where u going"

    me "I've just finished dinner - i'm going home"

    pig 1 "check check"

    pig 2: "licence - turn off bike"

    anyway this sort of crap - then they proceed to check my pockets - my shirt - my gonads !?!?

    then he opens my pack of ciggarettes - tears the top off - empties out the smokes - checks the bottom of the pack - bends a ciggarette in half

    ????? Is this a weapons and drug check ? WTF - its 10.00pm on a Monday night!

    after another minute they let me go ! - no money required.

    Is this usual ?
