Victoria Police - T.m.u

[MattD]

Have you ever really had a chance to talk a highway patrol officer? To talk in an environment where the nature of your questions and answers wouldn't result in how many stickers get placed on your windscreen?

Well, I have that chance on Wednesday, face to face, in studio.

So, SAU, lay some truth on me, what do you want to know? OR - What have you always wanted to know but were too afraid to ask?

[ashneel]

do they really like doughnuts???

lol

just about the whole cooler thing. it dosnt weaken you structure when cutting a small circle of a thin piece of metal (from what i read posted on an engneers cert) does that really scream for defects???

[R31Nismoid]

Ok so not really seeing the point of this

Without knowing what you spoke about (which could only ever be the tip of the iceberg)... this could be long winded

Past tense?

Im still a tad cut about getting an epa for my exhaust without being pulled over and passing the test.....waste of a day, stress and 40dollars

do all police officers simply jump tp conclusions when they see a sports car or is it in their quota to make money for the epa/exhaust shops whom pay a tax im sure

are they more bias to p-platers??

oh and how come ferraris/lamborghinis and harleys have more rights then we do with a middle class/price car

Not sure if you notice but i doubt a ferrari would pass a 5000rpm rev test at 90dB

[(B1) MR_fanny]

how about we start off by listing what you chatted to MR policeman about and we can go from there?

He said he has the chance on Wednesday, which implies that the talk has not happened yet..

[dezz]

He's saying he has the chance coming up this Wednesday, and is asking people what questions they'd like asked...

Does anyone actually read these days, or just post up first...

[RBJ3T]

I'm not sure how one conversation with a cop means you can now answer all of our questions? I have a million. My first question is what did you talk about and myabe I could base my questions around your topic of conversation.

Cheers.

My head hurts.

what are the major things that you see that will make you pull a vehicle over?

with a car like a skyline, are you more likely to pull over a thrashed out dirty stock 160rwkw 33gtst with altezzas, or a nice clean yet obviously very highly modified 350rwkw 33gtst?

[jakez88]

LOLZ this thread is stuffed up with people thinking the talk already happened!

read the first post guys!!!

ask them why must they break the law (weave through cars, go over median strips, speed, tailgate) to get to a import that is clearly not breaking the law just to pull them over?

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

QUESTION: Why dont they stalked rust bucket pouring out smoke and oil and macking hell of a noise clearly unroadworthy, but yet they stalk skylines and defect them for a break light or reverse light.

fair is fair, we all use the roads and want them to be safe.

and old people driving under the speed limit, have slow reaction to green lights and arrows, car judge car's, think they can just merge into traffic doing 80kph or even 100kph and a steady 40kph. why dont they issue them with a license re-sitting, or a drivers safety course

[RBLUV]

yeah im with him ^^ so many shitboxes around yet they still pick on us

[bluejeans]

id like to know why they always act as though they just jumped off the trojan war horse which invaded troy when they pull a car over..

and when you ask a simple question they jump back with 'are you being a smart ass' or a 'you know what you did' when you clearly have no idea what the hell you have done..

i can answer this one

see what this is commenly known as is "sand in the vagina syndrome"

i mean when u got sand there im gona guess you wouldnt be to happy, and for the more agro ones

where there is sand there are sand flies, and sand fly bites.... and on such a sensitive area they are gona be hella pissed off

so next time one come down hard just ask if he has sand in his vagina

Good work mate ......I can only hope that the interview/discussion is portrayed in a fair manner without bias

How about ask him/her how the TAC and police have got away with using 'Speed Kills' for god knows how long when it is a false statement. Speed doesn't kill it is simply a multiplying factor when an accident happens and is not a cause (this doesn't go for inappropriate speeding). All this does is enable to gov to generate funds and does not address the real cause of accidents - driver training or lack there of.

Ask him/her why the police have gone down the path of speed camera's when they do very little to stop the offense from occuring. Receiving a fine in the mail about a month after the offense has happened does nothing to stop it at the time. Instead of hiding camera's, visible ones will actually reduce peoples speed AT THE TIME.....or even better have more patrols on the street (how many more patrols would the cost of speed cameras have bought instead?).

Lastly people who habitually reoffend...whether it be excessive speed or drink/drug driving should be forced to visit a busy emergency ward on a sat night to see the damage such offenses cause.

[jakez88]

or offer him a steel brush to clean it out

[KURAUN]

and some vinegar or salty water with teh brush

[Ant97GTR]

Oh and ask him/her why there aren't uniform vehicle rules and reg's across all states....and why here in Vic you can't get certain modifications engineered and passed like you can in other states?
