Licence Disqualification

[Fabs_32]

Just lost my last demerit points this morning on the way to work! Damn Cop Bike!

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone knew of any tricks to avoid losing ur licence (please dont say "don't break the law")

I already know that...... and at this point of time, it's not funny.

It's gonna kill me if I lose my licence for 6 months!

I've already appealed my licence and was 7 months into the "good behavior" period. Is there anything I can do????

I've heard you can go to court and ask just to drive to and from work only. But I don't know if that's just bulls#%t.

Any ideas???

mate you can try that, ive heard a few things like that, but unfortunetly if you break the law then you have to face the consequences. I think its time to bus it.

he lives in the hills, bit hard for him to bus it, specially beeing a sparky......

unlucky fabio, where did he get ya? gorge? speed?

You've answered your own question.

If you've previously appealed - the law now says you cant appeal for another 5 years. Theres an option at the back of the fine that says something like you can dispute it in court and fingers cross the cop that fined you doesnt show up - nothing to lose cept a few extra bucks! lol

[skyhighR33]

i would say theres a fat NO!!! the law will f*ck you in all positions it can.harsh but true

I think its more than just a few extra bucks. Court fees are not cheap.

Did he get you unfairly? Were you not speeding? If you're 100%, then you can appeal and risk it thru court. Cop it sweet otherwise unfortunately.

Yo can get an Exeptionary licence that allows you to drive to and from the place of work, usualy have to wait a few months beforew you can apply for it and it has to be applied through the courts

[RubyRS4]

If you've breached your good behaviour period then you're probably in for a longer haul. Altho it'll take time, the only option available to you would be as mentioned below ...

Not sure if it'll cost ya, but anything thru the courts usually does.

Good luck with it all anyway.

Get a lawyer.

Seriously.

Even if you're guilty, have screwed up multiple times, there can often be something negotiated with the court; a lawyer knows these and will leverage it to the best of his/her ability. That said, it sounds like you've gotten more than a few traffic infringements, so you're almost pissing into the wind, however I have heard of some miracles worked by lawyers.

+1 for a lawyer, had a mate that had lost his license for a year and he only had a week to go and he got caught drink driving unlicensed only got 6 months. Another mate that had an hour of madness in his car due to ex gf got 15 driving offences was gona do time and lose his license for 60months (5years) laywer got all charges dropped and only 9 months, cost him 2500g's but well worth it

101 in a 80. Actually wasn't doing it on purpose this time, just in dream land and wasn't paying attention (damn brain!). It was just outside gumeracha on the way to kersbrook via checkers hill rd. Don't know if you know it, but yeah. Didn't even see him till I saw the lights come up behind me.

How much (very rough estimate) would a lawyer be for this type of thing? I have no idea on lawyer costs, never needed one.

Busing it isn't really an option from Gumeracha. It's a rarity..... and especially at 6 in the morning.

Anyone want to go for a hills run every morning to pick me up??? hahaha.......... (I'm depressed)

[heslo]

Wow I've never seen cops up there that time of the morning! Better tell the missus to watch out, she's just moved up there

[Ryanrb25]

i feel for you mate, it would suck big time. Cant imagine what id do without my licence. perhaps moving into the city and getting a lift with a work colleague could be an option if worse comes to worse. seems dramatic i know but much more practical.

I think I'm gonna have to venture down this line, coz what else is there!

I could ride the pushie from home, if I leave at about 3 in the morning! yeah, right! I'll get to work looking like the dudes from dumb and dumber with ice-icles (cant think of how to spell it) hanging out my nose.

Remind me not to be on the road next time you're not paying attention and driving 20km/h over the limit....

Already been said, but either fork out some serious coin and get a lawyer, or bend over and take your punishment like a man.
