You are an idiot. It is an offence to have body parts outside the vehicle.

Your own fault, get over it.

interesting

i wonder how much of your body has to be out of the car before you are considered not 'inside' the vehicle - and that you're sticking body parts INTO a moving vehicle, rather than OUT of a moving vehicle

i.e. lets say somone were to be 'car surfing' - holding onto the door of the car with feet on the ground sliding along happily...... does that count as body parts out of vehicle? or does it count as being on the ground sticking limbs INTO a moving vehicle? hehe

well lets find out one day. ill drag you down burwood highway in front of knox police and see if they come after us. if skateboarders can grab onto the back of peoples cars for a free ride, why cant you

[Grennan]

Haha thats funny. My friend got pulled over saturday night for that. We were all in the back drunk getting a lift home (sucks to be the designated) and we had our hands out the window kinda waving them up and down with the wind, why i got no idea. Pulled over on the Monash FWY and the copper was having a laugh at us, told us to behave and i quote 'Dont forget to pay the taxi driver" and he left.

pfft, that's just silly..

obviously you neglected to realise the fact that we need some grind plates

apparently shoes wear out far too quickly! and apparently the bottom of the shoes gets so hot it starts to burn your feet.


But in all seriousness, the body parts outside car rule is there for our own safety, and not really worth complaining about.. most of the time if i 'fat arm' it, i'll have the window up a little bit and rest arm against that, so it doesn't protrude. - In reality, though, it's probably just as likely to get injured/torn off/crushed in a side-swipe as if it would be when protruding from the car

[Torquative]

have you ever seen the result of someones right arm when theyve been sideswiped by a truck and their car has been pinned between the truck and a concrete wall at 60kph while their arm was hanging out the window?

Unless your really sick then trust me, you don't want too see it.

[DND]

Will it hasn't happen in the 30 years I been driving and I don't it its going to in ther next 30 So no

So that makes it right?

[Julie]

I guess if you have been driving with your arm hanging out the window for the last 30 years you should take some consolation that you are only getting booked for it now..... so why the whinge?

[STEALTHY™]

I'm sick and want to see.

I find it phenomenal about the amount of threads that get created on this forum after people get fines, then they get angry and say something negative about the police, yet, if their houses were broken into, a family member of theirs assaulted, or someone stole their car etc etc, the first people they would get in contact with, would be the police.

Don't argue with the police, they are above you, pay the fine, learn a lesson, and move on. Saves alot of anger and frustration. You won't win in court against the police 98% of the time.

Obviously, who else would they call? Ghostbusters?

[Cobez]

I would if i had their number. I want to see those guns in action.

Exactly mate. Next time something bad happens to you or someone you know, don't bother calling the police, because remember you hate them, think theyre pigs, think theyre useless bastards etc etc.
