In my experience it all comes down to the copper. If hes a young bloke he understands what a car enthusiast is, but an older one looks at you in a VL with a DADA jumper on and straight away thinks your up to no good and defects you as a precaution pointing at you "It's people like you...." Many police jump behind me and follow me down the road presumably checking my rego and then do a U turn because I know I got a clean record(and maybe my rego isn't being noted attending RCK cruises ) In my opinion I agree with NTMID8 but like I said it all comes down to the age of the copper and if he's having a ****ty day.

haha yeah apparently there was a guy on every stop recording all the driving going on ... weather he was a cop or a pissed off person thats another story.. but this will have been done to get the communitys response to it and since its a big thing theses days they will get more resources and **** to go bigger and further with the crack downs.. eg street ragers the other night.. there was like 9 cars max.. 7 defected. 2-3 arrests and a few impounded.. work it out.. much more money in there for them as well to look good to the public. The more annoying thing is all these car groups with 10 cars in it calling them self cruises publishing **** everywhere just ruin it for the ppl that just cruise around with a few mates and get hasseled cause ppl think they will be up to no good.. same **** different night
