    Default Long Weekend Double Demerits

    Anyone been unfortunate yet, i have been pulled into 2 set up rbt's, and pulled over by highway patrol, the highway patrol let me off as some bloody bastard stole my p plate, and he also said to me that i should change my green lights before a i get a asshole cop!..

    My mate got done doing 147 in a 100 zone and the cop gave him 144 so instead of losing it for 6 and a 1700 fine he lost it for 3 and $600 fine, worst thing about it he was on his way to probag lol

    Na no long weekend in Queensland. Not that it matters, the pigs are out at it as always. There's usually either an rbt or radar on the route i take to work so i know where to look for them.

    Can you refrain from using such terms in this manner? In all fairness they have a job to do just like the rest of us, and if you don't want to get caught then don't do the wrong thing in the first place.

    I have a feeling this will just turn into another cop bashing thread.

    I'm not going to change my attitude to suit you. If you don't like it then ignore it, it really is that simple.

    Now now lets not turn it into a bash the noob thread. Tim Smith show some respect for the police.

    I got pulled over with a warning for my seats and that's all. (gotta change those seats now) he was just doing his job. (he also pulled me over for a "Random" breath test)

    As usual the minority ruin it for the majority.
    I've been lucky. The one time i've been caught doing the wrong thing, I've had good police officers. I've been pulled over for "Random breath tests" on my P's more times then I'd care to remember. With the pig arrogant wanker officer carrying on like a two bob idiot.

    I have plenty of respect for them, you and others have made the assumption that i do not. I call my mates names too, yet i mean nothing by it. Political correctness is not one of my strong points.

    The police on the other hand are not your friends (as in, you hang out with them) so the comment about calling your friends the same is not valid (go try it, next time a cop pulls you over, call him a pig) Something like this: "You pigs are at it again", see what he says.

    Therefore my assumption is correct and has nothing to do with political correctness (don't know why you brought up political correctness, since i was talking about showing some respect).

    End of rant for me

    • UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.

    • OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear.

    • HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.

    • TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

    i know a few copper and consider then friends, on the other hand i've also met a few pigs.

    the NZ police also have a picture of a flying pig on the front of there helicopter so i'm well within my rights to call em "pigs"

    i have no issue with cops doing there jobs, however i have issues with cops revenue gathering when they could be solving real crimes. that however takes skill and knowledge and training which many cops seem to lack.

    this double demerits thing actually sounds good to me, but then when cops do people for speeding they also need to do something about the idiot driving 15km/h bellow the speed limit and holding everybody up and are a direct cause of speeding and dangerous overtaking

    Qld police are always on double demerits and double fines. They are expected to set an example.

    I don't really care what you call people. Sticks and stones. There are good and bad cops. good and bad people. I do belive however that bad cops should cop it more than bad people as they are supposed to be setting an example.
