This dude didn't want to stop for me, so he stoped for the Mike Bike and got a whopping fine...

Are you a cop? Just curious as to why the ford explorer would have need to stop for you?

No sarcasm in my post, I am actually interested :)

He's a Ranger in the area.

During the 4th Quarter of an AFL game at Subi - Roads are subject to certain closures - this is so pedestrians leaving the venue can do so in large numbers without running the risk of being run over. The roads re-open 30-40 minutes "POST" match.

So.. When you have someone who ignores the Road Closure Signs (responsibility of local council and backup by WAPOL) - People need to get the message that "It's not okay to ignore road closure signs"

Hope this helps... Can you tell I've been to Subi far too long ???? :lol: :P

No, I am not. Most of you know who I am, Mr G certainly does!

During the final Quarter & approx 30 minutes after the game the roads around Subiaco Oval goes into lockdown where no car [except for emergency vechiles] can move for the safety of patrons who exit the game. Subiaco Oval staff and police enforce this rule to the latter.

I believe the fine is $300 and 3 points.

Actually G, I believe that the responsibility lies within the Subiaco Oval Staff and backup by WAPOL. I'm always on the way home at game finish time and always stop to talk.

I usually help [not in uniform] where possible, it is a hard job for those guys, the amount of crap they have to put up with.

Cool :) I know all about the road closures because I live on Subiaco road!
When the roads are closed there's only a couple of strange ways to get in to my apartment block, and yes I avoid the roadworks and don't ignore the signs :)

If you ever need to kill any time before/after a game give us a yell, I'm only across the road. We can play scanners hahaha
