Your manners and behaviour are your identity

Today I was on the road on my bike. I was not carrying my driver's license I stopped at a signal as soon as I saw light turn red. All according to rules. Just as I had stopped, another fellow huddled with his bike beside me. Seeing him the traffic sergeant started coming towards us. I thought I was going to get caught. The standard punishment for driving without a license is confiscation of the bike and collecting it from the traffic station after paying a fine of INR 1000.

 

But instead of asking me anything the sergeant caught the fellow who huddled with his bike in front of the traffic. And just as he thought the fellow wasn't carrying a license. And the sergeant confiscated his bike despite much begging and pleading from the man. And as soon as the light turned green, I drove away without anyone asking me anything.

 

Later when I reflected on the matter, I realized that I was wearing full visor helmet, leather jacket and leather gloves. I was properly dressed for a bike ride. But the fellow who got caught was wearing an old half helmet only. And he was shabbily dressed. And the sergeant saw him overtake everyone to come to the front of the traffic.

 

The sergeant probably didn't feel the need to ask me for my license because I was so properly dressed and following "traffic rules". But I was just as guilty as the fellow who got caught. But my appearance saved me today

Is it a peddle bike or a motor Cycle? Also, I find it odd that the guy is getting outted... Since I do not know the laws of your area...I shall assume he had not complied with some safety rule?

Glad no one got hurt....Being polite is a two way street.

Its a motorcycle.

 

Ofcourse he broke the traffic law. He was wearing an outdated helmet and didn't carry a driver's license.

 

What do you mean by outted?
