Wouldn't it make sense to just...not overload your car and not have to worry about it?, I remember about 2 years ago an XR6 P Plater with 8 people in it was drag racing on plenty rd and they wrapped it around a pole...there are limits on these kinds of things for a reason, Excess people can cause massive distractions to the driver and they won't be correctly restrained in any seats/boot (yes people ride in boots)...and the back of utes , seen alot of stupid sh** in only my 23 years.

Know a guy that was being fully sick in his VN, had 2 people in the boot and 7 in the car. Ran straight in to a telegraph pole in an industrial area. Could have been a lot worse then it was.

Im with Delish - Why would you ask before doing it. Im sure it would be cheaper to shout a cab for the extra people then to cop the fine.

Its also kind of one of those things that you just can't miss. kind of hard to hide 2 extra people in the back seat.

i know for a fact this has been asked before, but im going to ask it again.

in this day and age with everything they have on their cars/bikes.
is an officer able to give you a speeding ticket because he guesed that i was speeding by a certain amount ?

he did not have any equipment on his bike and openly admitted that to me..

Fairly certain most cops can check speed against their own speedo's and that's good enough, if he followed you while you were speeding n kept the same speed you might not have much of a case.
