Jake Sloman was riding along the Logan Motorway on Monday when he stretched his leg.

Police pulled him over and fined him $146. The offence? "Fail to keep both feet on footrest".

The fine has caused outrage on Twitter and on Sloman's Facebook page, with people saying taking this particular road rule to the letter would mean almost every motorcycle rider would be liable to be fined.
