Speeding Fine What Can I Do?
I had a guy come and test drive my car which is for sale on this website about 3 weeks ago and the other day I got a speeding ticket for $220 and 3 demerit points which is on the date and time he came out to look at the car. I don't even drive this car because I downgraded to a lesser model. I rang but have had no luck in getting a response. What can I do?
street kiddo
take the test driver to court i guess

This is why you have tyre kickers sign a declaration stating that from x time to x time they were in posession of the vehicle on a test drive. Have it signed and witnessed.
Works a charm

I think the moral of the story is you must see the licence of anyone that comes for a test drive of your vehicle. (having them sign what time they drove the car for is a great idea too) What if they had crashed and didnt have a licence, your insurance company wouldnt have wanted to know about it.
Take it out/Take it Back
Bad luck. But if you were in the car, why did you allow him to travel at 15km/h in excess of the speed limit???
A new project attack
I would light a little fire in his front yard...and see what it looks like in the morning.
I think here in SA you can sign a Statutory Declaration to the effect that you were not driving the vehicle. In that way I believe you still pay the fine but do not loose demerit points. Perhaps there is a similar avenue in your state.
Call the enquiries number on the ticket and ask them.
we like the bun
i've heard that in countries such as the US, you can't be fined for speeding unless the police can prove who was driving.
in australia the law says you were driving even though they're not really sure that's true, but what's important is that you pay them the money
It's the same here. For example I see someone talking on a mobile phone driving, I can't just send the registered owner a ticket in the mail. The identity of the person driving has to be established.i've heard that in countries such as the US, you can't be fined for speeding unless the police can prove who was driving.

Camera detected offences are governed by seperate legislation that says otherwise.
The other exception in law is the 'operator onus' offences, like parking.

give the blokes girl friend a call, tell her that u have an amazing deal (selling the VT for $5000 or somthing) then when he comes around kneecap him. just a thought though i would do anything illegal
no longer a hoon by association - the commodore is gone
why do people wanna kneecap him and set fire to his front yard? its not like he's been in contact with the test driver and hes declined taking the fine... the guy might just agree to take the fine yano.
