I got a quick question about stunting in parking lots, well first of all my license got suspended for a year so I cant ride legally anymore and Im just starting to ride out my wheelies and want to get better. So if I haul my bike in a pickup truck to a parking lot or trucking warehouse to stunt and the popo roll up on me, can I still be charged with reckless, aggressive driving, driving on suspended, even though Im not on the public roads? or is it just trepassing? help is appreciated!!

 

dont do it.. if a cops having a bad day he will nail you.. all the cops that i've had come up to me so far have been cool about it.. one of the staties even sat and watched for an hour.. but you catch that one cop on a bad day you want to have all your **** legal

 

if its private property two issues come into play. first of all, a police officer him self "can not be disturbed" he has to have a complant filed by some one else in order to legally come onto that private property and give you any tickets. second private property is just that "private property" not government property not public roads. thus you dont have to have a license to stunt in the lot. but you do need permission to stunt in that lot. so they can still call the owner of the property tell them you are tresspassing and ask if they want to sign a complant. if the owner does that then the cop can arrest you and inpound your ****. thats all legally speaking

coming from personal experiance. I had the cops come start talking to us and with out us knowing the other cop called the owner of the property and asked them to come sign a complant. the whole time we jsut thought the cops were chill and just shootin the **** until the owner came signed the complant and then they arrested us and impounded our ****.

second i had another occasion where a cop tried beign all tuff **** with us and this time we were on my own property and i told him that and he coudlnt do **** and he knew it. but he still wrote two tickets for expired tags and no insurance tickets. I took it to court and lost. i personally dont understand how a cop can give me a ticket for not having current tags on a lot bike that I not only trialer to places but the fact it was my own property!!!!! i rolled the ****** outa my garage!!! why the **** would i need current tags.

in conclusion

To be honest you couldn't do this in a worse state. Virginia is horrible with cops & laws & court systems. You can still be charged with all that **** bro. Unless you get the owners permission and I believe it has to be blocked off from a publick road.


Most likley if you have a suspended liscense your doing this **** your getting a bunch of tickets. The question will you go home with the tickets or will you get them when you get bailed out.

And the court will see that you didn't learn your lesson if you have your liscense suspended and your doing this.

And do you mean have "somone" haul your bike in a truck. Pretty sure if your driving your truck there thats a nono also.lol

 

If you don't have a license you shouldn't be driving the bike anywhere period. It doesn't matter if your on private property or public roads.

You may have permission to ride on private property but you don't have permission to ride with no license.

Ppl think because its "private property" their untouchable and thats false.

 

since when does the state suspend the on cycle part of a lisence and not the overall privelages of the license?

I mean if your ***** suspended, the cops are gonna notice you drove your truck there so either way your gonna get some screwin from the po po


but Mostly refer to imafrogs post...

 

no Im talking about someone else driving the truck, me and the bike there, Im trying to stay clean for now on, so thats why I asked whether or not this would be legal since I would not be driving on any public roads. I just want to get my wheelies down and Ill be good

 

Well if somone esle drives the truck just listen to the posts above and take out the truck part.

If you have a suspended liscense your stunting your kinda asking for the tickets. Its real shitty but to be honest I'd be willing to bet money that if the cops come there not just going to tell you to leave. Your gonna get fucked. Especially in VA

 

heh glad u asked this question i just got my 4th ticket in 6 months, go to court on the 12th. pretty sure my license is gone so i been wondering the same questions. only difference is im in cali.

 

cops can do what ever the **** they want and they often do..........

 

Good point...Thats the bottom line if the cops cool he will sit and watch if the cop is a cop then he will take you to the clink

 

VA sucks for tix....trust me i got a ticket that cost me $950 for driving down to charlotte...."safety corridor...bullshit"....have a friend with a motorcycle license drive ur truck and if u are lucky say he towed ur bike on the truck to the lot and hopefully the popo is in a good mood.....dont chance though!!!

 

This is almost 100% correct. Except, you are not trespassing unless the place is posted "no trespassing" (or some other sign telling people to stay out) or you have already been told to leave and either refuse or leave and come back. You must first be warned or told to leave before you are trespassing. So if a cop gets the owner to sign a trespass order, he must inform you of that and you must be allowed to leave. To immediately arrest you is a violation of law.

Other than that, you do not need the express permission of the owner, although it is a HUGE help if the popo do decide to step beyond their bounds. And you can legally stunt on private property so long as you do not endanger other people or damage the place (burnouts can sometimes be considered damage, so use restraint in leaving marks behind). No license necessary. But, if you drive your truck there and your license is suspended, you still have a problem.

dude, hire a traffic attorney. every ticket can be won, especially in CA. do not assume just because you got a ticket that you are guilty. as one cop told me, it's all just a big cat and mouse game. if they don't play by the rules (which they usually don't) and you don't know because you don't know the rules yourself, they will always win.

this is true and sometimes you'll get bit. but the law is on your side if you stand up for yourself and your rights.

 

standing up for your rights is all fine and dandy but when a cop writes you for some bullshit that he knows you will beat in court he is still being a dick because now you have to go to court and possibly get a lawyer and miss time at work all because he want's to show his ***........

 

That's why you sue for false arrest after you win in court.

 

You should get yourself a restricted license. Its only suppoed to be used for transportation back and fourth to work and school but if the popo didnt see you doing wheelies you could make up some sort of story about you just leaving work and you were having problems with your bike. I had a restricted license for a year and I used to ride all over the place. Good luck.

 

yep and then you have to move out of that state because if you win that one they will make your life a living hell .........

lets face it the cops are biggest ******* gang around

 

Especially in that state. Only state I would not rather be in.

 

I cant get a restricted cuz it was suspended for a year so i guess ill be scootin' around in a rinky dink moped for the next 12 months. I also got another question, how about abandoned places businesses leave behind, are those okay? I found one that was owned by an airline that went out of business but theres still a sign that says no trepassing so im kinda iffy about that
