It's obvious, is it not? <bg>

James and  Sirius were joyriding on Sirius' newly charmed Muggle 
motorcycle, in  a Muggle area. This was reported by some well-meaning 
middle-aged  witch, and Arthur's predecessor at the Misuse of Muggle 
Artifacts  office was sent with a couple of colleagues to stop them 
and repair  the mess they had made. Meanwhile, a couple of Muggle 
policemen  observed the teens driving at speeds that made them a 
danger to  themselves and others, without helmets, and tried to pull 
them over  as well.

Which is the point at which the story begins.

I  suppose it ends with the poor Ministry officials coming to,  
Episkeying each other, Obliviating the cops and numerous persons  
around the neighborhood, fixing the cop's car with magic, and  finally 
going out for a firewhiskey together after a long, hard  night.

I like this interpretation better than any other I have read  and think it is 
probably in the correct vein. I do try to keep in mind how  young they all 
were when they joined the Order, and how young James and  Lily were when they 
died, but this sounds like a Marauders prank to me. I  feel that if it were DE's 
chasing them they would have had no qualms about  AKing the policemen on the 
spot. Just my opinion, even though zgurnius may  have been kidding.
