Hi all
i received an infringement notice today in the mail and well... I want to fight it and just wondering what experience you've all had in the past.
some details.. 126 in an 80 zone..... (i don't even believe I was going this fast I would of said 100 at tops) 8 demerits and $933, I don't mind the money more so the loss of license for 6 months... I did not make this thread to get flamed at for speeding so please if that's all you're going to comment on, leave your comments somewhere else... it was on a straight road with a medium strip and no way of turning into my lane or entering traffic, no residential properties or driveways on to the road, so yes even though I was speeding I was only putting myself in harm by doing so.
when I got flashed on the night i went down the round about some kilometer down the road and came back the other way and pulled over to take photos of the camera so I could get it's position and the fact that there was no "speed camera in use" sign. while taking photos of it the camera flashed at another car on the other side of the road going in the opposite direction so I would assume it would take photos of both lanes of traffic.
First things first, there is a another car in the picture it took of me and you can see the other cars license plate ( on the other side of the median strip, coming the other way) i've already established it can take photos of cars coming the other way, can I ask them to prove that it was my car doing the speed and not them?
The other thing is I want to ask them to prove to me that the speed camera was in a council approved location, can I ask for this information? (I have photo graphic proof of where the car was located so more so just want to find out if it was parked in a council approved area)
I've tried asking legal advice but everyone wants to pay like $300 + dollars to answer those two questions, perhaps someone here has been in a similar situation
any advice would be greatly appreciated
