seriously get a lawyer, tell your circumstances to the judge, like where u work and stuff how you needed to drive on that day, don't listen to people who think you might get higher penalty or other penalty even if it true, And don't say you were driving with out licince more than once u probably will regret it, but at the end of the day its your decision, ow start praying to GOD when you go to bed and go to church, and hope for a miracle

I had to be the bearer of bad news but God believes in justice too. haha

haaahah relax relax im not that dull.....

i wont lie i did drive from time..... but still i will keep my mouth shut, i need to see whats the mandatory for driving without a license, ill find that out with a legal aid... If he tells me mandatory for driving without a license is 6 months, then whats the use of getting a lawyer right?

Fair enough im a believer in god, but im a man not a saint :rolleyes: even i cant be nice all the time hehe

Hmmm, bad luck man. It was a stupid thing to do to drive whilst suspended licence. I have been busted 6 times for the same stupidity. The 2nd time i got caught and explained my story the judge let me off with a bond. 3rd-6th time was all in 1 hit court summons. Through me in community work and a fine. I do consider myself a lucky chap as they are to throw you in the cell for a couple of months on the 2nd time you get caught.

I think the judge do consider your side of the story, get a legal aid to help you with getting your side of the story out so that they can also advise the judge that you have learnt your lesson. But yeah it's really up to the judge at the end of the day. Worst case senario is going in for a couple of months... But i mean they take into consideration of your age and if you are getting somewhere with your life eg, work, school..

good luck mate.

m.

i wouldnt bother with a lawyer get legal aid they are good. its not worth the money. you will cop a fine up to $1000 depending on judge

they can give you longer loss of licence but if they do just cop it on the chin.

just dont get caught again cause then your screwed hard

im in the exact situation my mate would have gone to jail for 2 years cause of a prior offence

i ended up getting my second drink drive cause of that. i wasnt happy. but i had to do it cause he would have done it for me

what the f*ck is going on! why the fudge does everyone have court appearances or been to court?

anyways, gd luck to those with upcoming court dates...

but seriously, fark, it's not that hard to drive legally, ain't rocket surgery

Their is no mandatory (statutory) punishment for driving whilst suspended in VIC. I know this 100% I was lucky and got no additional time added to my suspension.

The magistrates discretion will come into play. More than likely you will get an extended period of suspension.

But because it is magistrates discretion it's worth having a "real good story" and showing emotion, remorse, etc.

oooo man that takes alot off my shoulders.....

well everyday it takes me almost 2 hrs to get to work with public transport. I leave my house at 5:30am and i get there at 7:20. when i finish which is 4, it takes me almost 3 when returning because of all the traffic. Going from Narren Warren to Burwood its a hell of a thing. I have driven only 3 times to work and i got caught once.

I can get a Refrence stating that i need my car to get to work and all that.

Wow that post really made my day... well i guess we will see what happenes :)

got any friends that live near your work that you can shack up with for a short amount of time? pay a little rent, but get to sleep like an extra 2 hours every morning :)

hahaah i wish, if that was the case i would have never driven in the first place :P

ahahah yea that would kinda suck....

what i will do is get my boss to write me a letter of recomendation and also stating that i need my license for the job, maybe it will sway the judge to just giving me a fine.... only time will tell i guess

  • 4 weeks later...

ok well i talked to the boss he is going to write me a recomendation, and i got a booking for a lawyer on june 28th so we will see what happens, oh and this coming wendesday i get to drive.... feels like its been years.... ill keep you guys posted what the lawyer says

  • 4 weeks later...

alrite well i got my liscense back... good god it feels so good to drive again.... in these past 2 weeks i clocked over 1,000kms... alrite anywhoo

I got my employer to write me a letter, stating the position i was in at the time, and also how long it took me to get to work, how i got there etc etc preety much the bibile on how i get to work.

Although the lawyer had to rechedule the meeting till 17th July, so i still have to see what he has to say...

I dont know if you guys were waching the court cases here in Melb (dandy) but the 4 cases i saw, preety much they were in the same position as me they got away with only a fine, and they had no written proof from their employer on paper stating they had to drive, so i like my chances.

Also another good thing in the report it doesn't say that i drive a Skyline all it says its the rego number so :thumbsup:

Things are looking good so far, but i will keep you posted as promised,

Cheers

Good to hear bro - glad you're finally getting your life back on track!

Just remember this as a valuable lesson and do not do the wrong thing again!

As long as you learn from your mistake and move on gracefully, there's no need to dwell on the past and beat yourself up all the time... move on, but do not forget the leassons learnt - this is the key!!

Good luck mate.

Im finally getting the grasp of the actual car and the way you just drive it in piece and people noticing it. Although i had ALOT of people trying to drag me, but as you said lesson learnt so yea... anywhoo ill keep yas updated

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
