JaiJai

Recommended Posts

As the title suggests got my 1st speeding ticket - and i had a bet with my brother that i could go through my whole Ps without one... :P

Nice cop but way better than the way they treat you on the gold coast pulled me over i said good afternoon officer got booked for doing 79 in a 60 zone (I was in a really big rush) on limestone ave near the war memorial

said that he'll drop it down to under 15km so $133

Funny when I called dad up but to tell him, 1st thing he said - you have to go see magistrate? said no, reply was im doing better than him (used to own a nice fod coupe with a worked chev)

So thats that! and i can assure you that i learnt my lesson - now i have to wait till ANOTHER pay day to get the HICAS lock bar :(

I know someone that drove a new vehicle back from a capital city with a 7 day permit. Sped through every speed camera he could find just to frustrate the law!!! Vehicle was unregistered - with a 7 day permit - no number plates!!!! Bet the camera's took a lot of really nice photo's though.

^^ This is gold.

I got my first speeding ticket through the camera coming down through kurrajong on the bells line of road, just when they put the camera up (about 2 weeks later anywho). I opened the letter and laughed, rang the old man said "hey i got a speeding ticket", he mentioned something about going too fast and whatnot, then i mentioned "you have an envelope with exactly the same markings etc on it".

He managed to get done on the same day, just behind me (we were doing a convoy type thing to sydney).

Not a good feeling! Such a waste of money, and they are often on Limestone... you must have been in a rush!

Except I'll bet you were later in the end than you would have been had you not been pulled over...

i got fined on my P's and had my license suspended for 3 months... wasn't much fun either, it was during my HSC. in those days i couldn't afford a skyline though, and any P plater who can has too much money.

I drove around for about a week with no plates when i got my skyline... i didn't purposely speed thru any cameras...but the thought did cross my mind that they wouldnt be able to get me if I did ;)

~200 rwkw for a < 20 year old is scary.

Unless you grew up karting or something...

Haha yeah i did the same, but i figured i'd be the dude with an unregistered maroon skyline flying thru all the speed cameras, then 2 weeks later i'd be the only dude registering a maroon skyline, and somehow it would get back to me.

Very unlikely to happen, but still.
