Hey mate thats a a S**T go.....

I have a story which isnt as bad as yours but still pretty pathetic....

Im a red p-plater and was travelling home one night through bankstown airport and my car is a low ute with low profile tires so you can imagine how hard of a ride it is...so i was going max 1 metre across the centreline and cutting back in to lessen the impact when going over these massive speed bumps...a cop pulled me over and admitted to me that he had been following me for 10 minutes and then he proceeded to slug me 3 demerit points and $250 (and told me to grow up) for going diagonal across the speed bumps... mind you this is at 10 pm at night when there was no traffic around so i wasnt a danger....its all about revenue to the cops..

Good luck when you get your licence back

[pillzor]

im on my p`s again at the moment due too something that was my fault so no story needed there, however since getting my liscence back i have been behaving myself only too get flashed going across an ORANGE light and losing 3 of my 4 demerit points , i wrote the appeal letter and got denied leniency because the light was goddamn orange when i went over and changed when i was in the middle waiting for traffic so i could turn right....... i got denied so i only have 1 point now.

I remember the last thread like this ended up 'd.

No one wants to hear stories of stupidity. How do you NOT know you are doing 125km's? This is why they teach you to look at your speedo when you regulary check your mirrors when you learn to drive. To keep an eye on your speed.

How do you not know you are doing 125kms? It feel a bit faster than doing 100kms (i'm assuming that was the speed limit where you got done).

As far as I know when a thread is moved to the pub the posts made in it while it was in the tech section are discounted.

r....its all about revenue to the cops..

Biggest load of bullshit i have ever read. So because you THINK you were safe and you THINK there wasn't danger you consider it revenue? "The cop admitted to following me for 10 min" tells me there was another car pretty close the whole time. Maybe the car is too low for you to handle.
Revenue my arse. If you don't break the law or be a ****wit then they will never score a single cent from you.

(I'm not saying I've never copped a fine, so before people carry on with the age old 'holier than thou' line they copy from everyone else realise yeah, I've been fined before, but only because i was doing the wrong thing and wore it).

[stevesvx2001]

Well, heres my story.

After a very long day of work, I was pretty tired. Driving along the highway which I had been for nearly an hour, I done my regular mirror check and noticed a car behind me, on the second check I noticed it was a Copper, looked down at my speedo for the usual speedo check, and bamm Im sitting on about 98km/h, thats right 2km/h under the assigned speed limit. I just kept driving as I usually would, when I got into town the cops went towards the station and I headed home. Hope that story was some inspiration to mirror and speedo check regularly

If that's the worst night of your life, you've got a lot left to live for.

[DARK SIDE]

Well i bet you will become more aware of the speed you are going now. I lost my license when I was 16 for speeding 38kmh over the limit in an 80 zone. I appealed and got the license back with 1 demerit point. I now watch that speedo more than i watch the road. sorry to hear about you losing your license dude but should have been paying more attention to your speed. good luck with it all anyway mate.

[Jecs]

same story, i didnt realize someone had lowered my car and thrown a 355ci engine in and dumped the exhaust at the diff.. oh and smoke was pouring out my rear quarters

[Jesterarts]

Mate... if that's the worst night of your life... you've got it easy.

Plus you go no one but yourself to blame.

Best you can do is cop it on the chin and take it as a life lesson to smarten up.

Want to go fast? Go to a track. Speed limits are there for a reason. Bet you every boy racer was thinking that he was "just minding his own business" on an empty road just doing a little over the limit right before killing himself or someone else.

Think about it.

all the mods are so serious all the time. lol
bad luck you got caught cant you do that double or nothing bullshit?

By this we assume you mean breaking the law by speeding in an excessive manner?

Glad to see another irresponsible person has been removed from the roads.
