You went to Elwood beach on a warm Saturday night with bald tyres, and you're surprised the cops got you?

I've had it happen to me before at a supermarket. Expect the fine/slip in the mail.

WTF? never heard of it happening, and dont they normally stick them inside the car? Check with your local RTA and make sure its legit caus they normally give you a lovely fine along with it.

I didn't get a fine, but I got the sticker on the outside, and the slip of infractions arrived in the mail.

are the tyres below minimum? if so, buy new ones, take it to cop shop and get it cleared. if theyre not below minimum, go straight to cop shop, get it cleared. then forget about it.

i doubt theyre going to send out a fine for a minor defect for tyres, but you never know, and you could find out when you go get it cleared

why shouldnt they be allowed to? if you're in a car park, you're on public property and had to drive an unroadworthy car to get there.

stop whinging about it and go get it cleared. if you're still cut up about it, goto the police station and make a complaint.

Two different sized tyres on the front and rear are illegal.

Eh? As in, one size on fronts, and one size on rears? What's wrong with that?
