Pulled over by Australian Victoria Motorcycle Police

Short and Sweet video, when talking to police don't say anymore then I need to without getting myself in trouble. Notice when they ask who does my bike maintence and check my tyres, cops are not your friends and they are trying to find a reason to give you a ticket only say what is asked of you and nothing more. I knew my tyres are in good condontion considering the bike barely has 3000km on it.

They seemed like really awesome / professional down to earth police officers in this encounter to me, awesome that they were enthusiastically asking about your bike gear, wholesome stuff!

[@maxregal8889]

Sorry, can’t agree. They pulled him over for an arbitrary stop when no offence had been committed, under the guise of a DUI check. Yes, they were pleasant, but that should be considered normal behaviour, not awesome. Just because most cops are rude pricks doesn’t mean these two should be congratulated for not being. And how awesome would they have been if our rider chose to not answer their phishing questions, as would have been his right?

The idea is that if the civilian population is aware they can be pulled over for no reason at all other than to get a breath test, that they will be less inclined to risk drinking and driving. The problem is that this is Australia and drink driving is a national pastime.

Until some drunk dude with an attitude like yours wipes out someone you care about . Then you'd be blaming the cops for not giving the dui driver a test .

​@jadsmvs8651 No, it's legislation to give the cops a reason to arbitrarily pull you over for a fishing expedition. It's nothing to do with safety. It's an excuse to get your name.

[@jadsmvs8651]

@@mini696 They can run your plates and get your name that way mate. They don't even need to pull you over to find out where you live. As for arbitrary reason to stop you. Not really. There's no need for arbitrary stop justification, given police in Australia and in particular Victoria, don't actually require an articulated reason or excuse to pull you over. They can quite literally pull you over to ask you what you had for lunch or who you barrack for. You don't have to give them that specific information, unless of course it is tied to an actual investigation, but they can pull you over for anything. This isn't the US, where it's unconstitutional for police to initiate a traffic stop without reason.

in Australia it doesn't matter how much respect you give, if you've made a mistake and the cops catch you, you're getting a fine in the hundreds of dollars. In the USA, however, police actually have the discretion to give you a warning, and even if they don't, their fines are much more reasonable than here. No one should be out of a weeks pay because they rolled through a stop sign or drove 12km faster than the speed limit.

[@OhSoddit]

My guess is they NOTICED his camera. That kept the interaction cordial, and SHORT. Had he NOT been filming, things may have ended "differently". As a former shiftworker, I was regularly stopped by RBT's. Once I put in a dashcam - completely different behaviour - they can't get you OUT quick enough. No game of "twenty questions", no licence and rego check, it's just blow and GO. One time they didn't even breathalyze me, I stopped, cop saw the dashcam, and just waved me through.

[@titaniumquarrion9838]

For those thinking this is fine I’d ask why is it I’ve never been lit up with lights and pulled over for an RBT in a car or motorcycle in NSW or QLD? Is this normal in Victoria? A static RBT is one thing but to light people up and pull them over with zero actual rationale is bullshit. So far as them being friendly go they aren’t your friend they are working and their job is to issue fines and make arrests. The friendly banter is to disarm, distract and assess you. People that start talking and answering benign questions are more likely to continue to be compliant if they suspect, detect or decide to fish deeper. It also serves to give them justification to state you seemed nervous, influenced etc to warrant further investigation, searches etc. I don’t have an issue with static RBTs nor that when at those stops drivers can expect to be licence checked and cars given a quick visual scan for compliance issues but pulling people over like that is a horses ass. And again for those that think these are good guys, and I’m not saying cops don’t do good for the community but they also overreach at times are bad) they may well be “good blokes” when not working but when on duty in this traffic stop context you are a “civvy” to them and are viewed as a potential offender. Police, especially in Victoria, are rapidly becoming more militant. If you don’t think so ask why non-violent fleeing lock-down protestors were hit with batons, rubber bullets and tear gas. Also ask why cops have started wearing blue so dark it looks black, black and camo uniforms. Maybe they should put more effort into preventing and solving motorcycle theft and getting the legitimate fuckhead and unlicensed/unregistered riders off the road than hassling law abiding riders without justification by doing random fishing expeditions. It’s not hard.

[@dr0pb34r]

lol Calm down mate, this isn't America. Police here actually do a good job and are not just out to issue tickets. They are checking everything is ok to keep the roads safe. The only poeple who have an issue with that are those with unroadworthy vehicles. In which case, that person is in the wrong, not the police. Also, getting pulled over for a RBT is very common. I've had it happen in Tasmania, Victoria and NSW

@@gurugulab1414 At these things called RBTs. They don't randomly pull over cars with ligths flashing and do this. Cars scan and check rego and licensing of drivers constantly. By your logic cops should be able to come in search my car, home or person anytime they like on the off ca]chance i am doing something wrong. They should also be trawling pubs and bottle shops and ID checking people "just in case". The fact people like you don't notice, don't care or worse justify the slow and steady erosion of privacy, freedom of movement and travel without being a suspect and inconvenienced . Meanwhile suburbs and streets are routinely ridden by gangs of dickheads unlicensed, unregistered and usually stolen trail bikes and cops do nothing or give hem a "stern warning".

[@Fullnoise]

I can’t believe that you answered some of those questions. You’re obviously a young bloke but one who is destined to learn the hard way. First of all, these coppers are not your friends, they are only being polite so you can feel at ease and give them more info so they can screw you. You did nothing wrong, so forget the BS about them just checking your rego and licence, this was an arbitrary stop, simple as that. First thing you did wrong was ask, how can I help you? You have no civic duty to help Victorian Police under any circumstances, so don’t even offer. Simply say, g’day. The bloke who breathalysed you asked if the bike was in your name and you said, yes. They already know this as they would have checked your rego and licence status before they even stopped you, the same goes for them asking if you were a probationary licence holder, they already know. Next thing, don’t volunteer information with reference to what you were wearing. If they don’t ask, keep your mouth shut, and FFS, don’t ever call them Sir. When he asked who does the maintenance on your bike, why on earth did you answer? It’s none of his damn business who works on your bike, so again, don’t volunteer information. They’re only setting a trap for you. Do you think that if your mum gets pulled over in her car that a cop is going to ask where she gets her car serviced? When he asked about your seat cover, it was a trap that you didn’t pick up on. I’ll bet you a $1000 that he wasn’t interested in buying one. He’s trying to keep you talking, that’s why you keep your mouth shut.
