  1. Depends on the state and the circumstances. In NSW a summons/Future service can may be issued up to 6 months after the offence.
  2. True. Similar in vein to carrying a knife V religious beliefs.
  3. The devil is in the detail and each state is different. NSW. You are obliged to carry your licence You are obliged to stated your name and address and specimen of signature if required. You are obliged to provide a breath test, or a urine/blood sample if it is so required. You are obliged to provide your version of events in an accident. You are obliged to surrender your licence, number plates or car if so directed. It goes on and on. The Road Transport legislation has some of the widest ranging powers that police have. Supplying details of your passengers, whereabouts etc are not required, unless it involves an indictable offence. So if you get stopped for a RBT, it can involve a lot of powers.
  4. Am I missing something here. All those low output turbos are able to be driven on an exemption. You don't need a special need for it. You own the car. you apply. you get the exemption. Nothing has really changed. apart from not having to carry a bit of paper
  5. Its actually 3 months for both the licence and the registration Sure, it may fool a lazy copper, but there are too many available databases for police to check your movements. Banks, rental bond, phone etc etc. Its a short amount of time back at the station to get all the information they need. The vic rego thing is an anomaly with vicroads allowing them to be mailed to NSW residents. Correct. Your licence conditions are what count. Tas licence safe. NSW licence not safe.
  6. As stated elsewhere. S10 is not applicable. You have already paid the fine. Appeals are a different animal and are generally not given for speeds. Only P platers have a right of appeal in relation to demerit points. Everyone else has a tough fight on their hands. Not true. That used to be the case several years ago. Not any more. Even when it was a guideline there were clear instructions that it could be done in a variety of circumstances.
  7. A percentage of HWP have ANPR. Ths equates to a small portion of the fleet. Yeah....sure...........................Was is parked next to the Police Skyline? I see thi as a problem down the track as no rego mean no remainder to register, especially if someone has moved address. Less onus on the driver when stopped for driving an unregistered vehicle and more problems for people hit by unregistered vehicles.
  8. P plates carries 2 points, whether you have none, 1, or 2 partially displayed. The RMS will have their own solicitor there in relation to the appeal of the suspension or they will get a police prosecutor to loo after it. Provisional drivers are in a unique position where they are the only drivers with the ability to appeal a demerit point suspension. You can appeal on hardship or all grounds. In your case you would be appealing on hardship. You could appeal all grounds if one or both of the previous matters were dismissed. Lodging the appeal late may be your downfall as it may not even get off the ground at the hearing date.
  9. I am not sure what Victorian rules state , but the sign must be erected by the authority and be an approved sign under the relevent act. I have never heard of an authorised sign mention vaccuuming.
  10. As stated, all HWP cars in NSW have video anyway. The thing to remember is your video camera in your car also records evidence of any offences you commit and in some situations may be siezed as evidence against you.
  11. Short answer for OP. Nothing.
  12. Hmmmmmm. Over ten years of papers released from MUARC may contradict your statement.
  13. LOL. If cops got promotions for tickets written, why is there not a HWP as the commissioner. Double LOL. State revenue is 58 Billion dollars. TOTAL (and I mean everything) fines from motorists or .58% of that. Imagine how few of this is even related to defects. <.005%. Hardly a solid revenue stream.
  14. It wont make any difference what you spend. You dont even hve to be stopped to be directed to the DECC. Notices can be mailed to you after Police, Council, or even a member of the public contacts the DECC. They send you a notice of directed inspection and you front up or cop a fine. If you are stopped and it is a case that they believe your vehicle is loud etc, then it is merely that. They dont have to be experts or carry the equipment. That is what a defect notice or DECC notice is for. To send you to an expert who has the testing equipment. In the end the actual testing criteria is very strict and depends on aa lot of factors that most people gernerally wouldnt kno or be able to test for. Simply put it is 90db for a new car and 96 or an old one. Why dont you just contact the DECC for the detail and even book it in for a test. You could even spend less by reading this document from the DECC. http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resources/noise/10146VehicleNoise.pdf
  15. Flashing headlights: Pro's - Its Australian Con's - It's illegal. It may slow a speeding driver. Big deal. It also warns every other crim on the road what is ahead. What if the next car you flash is the drunk or stoned driver, or the stolen car, or the uninsured driver that goes on to hit you, a friend or family.
  16. A: Tomorrow is the correct spelling. B: EPA is DECC and has been for some time. C: If you are gullible enough to fall for it, you may be the type of person who can't walk and breath at the same time.
  17. You should buy yourself a lottery ticket, because whoever fined you has give you the incorrect offence. Travelling in a transit lane carries the same monetary penalty as a bus lane and has done since about 2005.
  18. The most important thing ot note about Sections 10 is the higlighted bit that magistrates cannot act on demerit points. Pay no fine but still lose the points.
  19. In NSW you must inform parties of private conversations they are being recorded and also seek their consent. Laws regarding optical surveillance devices are covered in the workplace surveillance act and the surveillance devices act. Notwithstanding other legislation there are very few restrictions to the use of video recording in PUBLIC place.
  20. Did he tell you that? I only ask because Police have not used anything that uses a "speed camera" sign for at least 3 years. They dont need signs for speed enforcement.
  21. Breaking the law 101. Dont leave evidence..................of wait you have already left it all over the internet
  22. Talk about legal advice at its worst. Police have not only power to question the owner but are required to do so to establish the drivers identity. The owner is also legally obliged to supply that drivers details or face penalties Most magistrates are ex solicitors. It is rare to find an ex police magistrate. They give equal and imaprtial time to both the prosecutor and defence solicitors Or he may just tell you to plead guilty as the police case is strong. Roll the dice.
  23. Maybe he just does not tell people. There is no rule that says they have to tell you or have to offer a caution. Offence committed. Ticket issued.
