Good point Green/Gold. I've had a bike licence for 39 years & it's ALWAYS been the same, harass harass harass, even if you are obviously doing the right thing you get pulled over for "licence checks" while every other road user is ignored & now with modern technology it's a LOT worse
If you had told me 30 years ago that cops would use stealth tactics & video to shadow & spy on us like some secret Gestapo, I would have laughed & said you've had too many late nights or have been reading too much George Orwell, but alas, there it all is
How did all this slip past the civil liberty zealots ? what about invasion of privacy ? I guess this is what it really means to be "under the microscope":">
Back in the gold rush days the coppers were nick named "The Traps"..... gee, I wonder why
