My friend had a minor head injury and his doctor advised him to wear a full face helmet whilst riding his bicycle. The cops pulled him over and he had to show them the note the doctor had written about it. I guess the concern is that if your face is obscured they can’t track you down if you commit a crime? Still seems pretty dumb to me.
that has to be UK, it just has to be. the CCTV surveillance state is crazy there. (saying this as a Canadian whose face is recorded probably 200 times a day in my city)

Cops are just nosy. No justification. They don’t like people who look weird. That’s how they’re trained to think.
I don’t know… think seems like the wrong word. Maybe trained to react?
What country? That’s pretty dystopian.
Probably the land of the free********
Almost certainly not.

Bingo, it is indeed the UK
