Yes you read right, got a fine and want to get out of it, has anyone done it?

Dont want to hear from people who just want to tell me that i got the fine and now i should live with it, its not that simple in this case (happy to pay the points are the issue).

Also when i got this i was on a 1 point probation, now im off that will the points be back dated and i lose my license if i pay the fine?

If you are on the photo (go down toe civic compliance and see the photo), then you are well... stuffed.

That is why they take photo's as evidence. The only way your are going to get off is if the photo is a bit ambiguous and you can't clearly see your number plate.

I believe the points will date back, and VicRoads will send you a letter

Unfortunately being a truck driver means that i cant afford to have the points taken off see im seeking out other ways, there are websites around that tell you how to do it but dont know any one who has used these successfully.

Only other option is to sign them over to someone else but since it was in a truck does the other person need a truck license, on the fine it says it was in a "vechile other than a heavy vehicle".

What do you mean get around it? You were busted red handed - there is no such "getting around" anything.

You could pass them off onto someone else i guess, illegal however. And i would imagine they would need a truck license as whoever re-processes the form is likely to check (i would imagine).

If the offence was in a truck then using someone who doesnt have a truck licence may result in them receiving an unlicenced driving sting.

I'm a truck driver also and I have an old guy at work with a HC that doesnt drive anymore that sells them off for a gorilla a piece. Cheap price if the alternative is no work for a month or two....or twelve.

I'd be offering someone at your workplace a bucket of cash for some points.

At worst you can apply to vic roads to be allowed to drive during working hours if you can prove that you will lose your job if you can not drive, willing to pay someone to take them but not for 1k each.

I challenged one in court, was on the edge of the line, in traffic inside the intersection, the argument that I entered on a green light was not good enough.

I got no demerit points after taking it to court but got the fine.

That was ONLY because I had no previous fines, its going to be tough to get out of losing the points :)

hmm is vehicle registered to work?

If so how well do you get along with mgmt?

*could it be that*Company owned vehicles might have so many different drivers that its really impossible to tell who was driving at the time? And can pay an additional payment as well as fine to not nominate driver. To date I am not aware of actual driver logs being cross referenced afaik provided the bastards get their money the rest is who cares.

They normally ask me who i want to sign it over to before they do it but it was a new chick that signed it over, the boss him self is an arse hole and wouldnt go through any extra shit for his drivers.

Its also a company vehicle that is registered in a different company's name.

Also this fine is from december but they have only just signed it over to me last week.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.

      Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender

      I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
