Demerit Points As Well As An Automatic Suspention


Recommended Posts

Ok i have done a stupid thing and got pinched for speeding with an automatic suspension (6 months)

Now my question is i only had 6 demerit points left on my license before the incident... After receiving the fine which is an automatic suspension of 6 months and 6 demerit point will this mean i get suspended twice or will the suspension run at the same time ?

I know i have made a stupid mistake so no need to go kickiing my butt even more but i have no idea how this is going to go with an auto suspension as well as wiping out my points ... any light on the subject would be really appreciated thanks

ish!

once you get your licence back i would guess you might get that bond where you cant lose any points for 12 months or you can forfeit your licence for xx period..but maybe it runs concurrently *shrugs*.. what ever happened to smokey?

You'll be sent an option notice sometime soon which will come into effect after your automatic 6 month suspension is complete. Your choices are A. be a good boy on the road for 12 months and at the end of this period all your demerit points will be wiped out for a clean slate, or B. stay off the road for another 3 months and at the end of this period all your demerit points will be wiped out for a clean slate. Should you choose the good behaviour, and you f*** up even 1 demerit point, you will be off the road / suspended for 6 months...after which your demerit points will be wiped out for a clean slate.

Also interesting to note: hypothetically, if you only had room on your licence for 4 more demerit points before getting an option notice then your "clean slate" would be starting off with 2 demerit points because of the 6 demerit point offence carrying over to the next slate.

thanks guys .... basically i got pinned behind 2 cars in a double lane doing same speed (45 kms) late for work etc etc... God onlyt knows why its 50 kms up this stretch of road as its paddocks one side and one big factory the other...

as soon as i had my gap i went back a gear and feed a bit of boost to clear my self away and bam he lit me up like a Christmas tree further down the road ... i still don't believe it as i really didnt think i gave it to it that extreamly...

i saw the radar and it stated 95kmph///71.5 metres so i will just have to cop it sweet...

:D

ohhh gotta go Gf is lecturing me hard, back later

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
