You only ever hear about people who run away from cops badly. Motorcycles are usually long gone before the police have a chance to call a helicopter, which they would be able to outrun anyways if they were on a straight road.
To be clear though I don't think that's the reason loudness isn't enforced. I imagine it more has to do with the fact that they aren't watching for it since they don't have any way to easily test it like speed.
- ratsimihah 11y agoWhat movie is that in?
- rco8786 11y agoLoads. They're all on YouTube filmed with Gopros. Seriously bikes run from cops all the time. They're gone in a flash.
- mahyarm 11y agoIf they have a video with a license plate record of them running away from police, then why don't they revoke the plate and impound the vehicle at the registered address?
- ceejayoz 11y agoI take it you haven't seen the license plate covers popping up all over that basically make it impossible to read a plate from beyond a few feet away?

- semi-extrinsic 11y agoWhy aren't these cars/bikes fined while parked on the street?
- ceejayoz 11y agoI, too, would love to know the answer to that question. I've been seeing them all over in NY, where I understand they're illegal, and have no idea how they're not cop magnets.
- mirimir 11y agoBack in the day, I lived on a dirt road, and I never washed my car. So the tag was a little hard to read. But hey, there was nothing obviously intentional about it.
- scurvy 11y ago"You can't outrun a radio" is pretty common refrain among sportsbike riders upon hearing a tale of someone running from police.
- mikestew 11y agoSaid by those that never try, and by cops that believe their own macho BS. Though often successful, I highly discouraged it, because it's very dangerous for yourself and endangers others as well. Additionally, make a habit of it and you'll eventually get caught and enjoy free accommodations courtesy of whatever county you're in at the time. But one can most certainly outrun a radio.
