I'm in agreement with you on putting more on duty in the city at night, but the amount of dangerous driving I see around my area more cops would be a blessing. The more visible they are hopefully the less people will drive like wankers.

i wish they'd get rid of all these cars with no brake lights.. does my fkn head in! way more dangerous then my road scrapingly low car..

damn streetracers :)

I wasnt even racing. I pulled up next to them at the lights, and i could sense that they were looking at the car. Lights go green - and i hesitate for a second to see if they will go firs,t but they didnt. so I went - got up to about 80 (speed limit), changed to the left lane, and they put the red n blue on. They just checked the plates (if it was registered to me), did a breath test etc - the cop was a nice guy though - think it made his day when i told him i stopped drinking about 4 months ago (not that i drank much or often anyway).

Thats pretty f**king bad. One of my dads mates was like that, even went to jail for 3 months after being done for multiple (more than 15) drink driving offences. He still drink drives to this day and actually encourages others to do the same. Retards... so many of them.

yep - i used to know a person like that. She got caught drink driving 2 times or something. Second time the judge warned her next time its the jail for her. Did she learn her lesson - nope. 3rd time she crashed into a car while not being insured, and driving on a suspended licence (i think). Luckily for her the car she crashed into belonged to someone she knew, and she was able to get a family member to come and help her out. Did that change her outlook? Nope - stopped for a while, but is on the juice again.

To be honest, i cant give a f**k if scum like that end up in jail or dead (better than them killing an innocent person anyway).....the world is better off without them anyway.

We have more staff on as holidays over so we are running traffic cars most days. I would say that most stations in same position so more out and about. We are running plate recognition days in next few weeks also which will be interesting.

I am almost becoming a professional drink driver processer as almost eveyone I pull over lately is pissed. Have had 4 repeat offenders all more than 3 times limit in last month. One also disqualified and driving unregistered car and almost ran us off road 3 times in police car. In his mind he did nothing wrong and told me off as I verbalised my disgust for him in no uncertain terms.

so do u know officer pitett? ns.com famous police rep from a couple of years ago.

I guess with a drunk person you have to let go any feelings about things you may have personally. As you are probably aware, rationality goes out the window most of the time. How do u deal with that? Does it frustrate you that there is no respite, and a continuous occurence of drunk people? Or can u spin it into a positive in that u are preventing people driving further that are a danger to others.

I totally am against drink driving if people are confused,

No I don't know pettett. I am getting sick of the amount of Drink Driver's out there and most are not a little bit over but smashed. I don't understand with all the media coverage and immediate loss of license why people still do it. (more than ever IMO) I am also frustrated that about 90% of them I have dealt with in last 12-18 months are international students and don't give a toss. I have seen some in at our station after fatal collisions where they have killed friends/family and others and weren't even the slightest bit upset by their actions.

I do feel good when I catch someone like that because there is a good chance that I may have stopped them killing someone else or even themselves. I never take things personally and never will, the day I can't control my emotions I shouldn't be wearing the uniform.

That is exactly the attitude all of Victoria Police should have, and I wish all police did; like anything the minority ruin it for the majority.

You couldn't have said it any better :D

LOL there are more than 5 people in the police force man. Pettett was known of around most of the Melbourne car scene for particular reasons, but I imagine the only people in the force who know him are his superiors and colleagues at his station.

RWC does not worry me. Other things do :D

even though people have legit RWC's, i have a feeling if they feel like it they will pin you somehow. for example warn seatbelts even when they are still decent. you dont even need to change them and go to vicroads and vicroads says piss off dont worry bout it. seen it plenty of times.

been there done that :P

got defected for a faulty seat belt. It got twisted when I got out. Dandenong TMU didn't see the difference and didn't bother un twisting.

Saw about 5 police cars last night coming home along the eastern - had one police SUV come up fast in the 80 zone before the tunnel and flash his high beams when I had a car next to me and couldn't move over, he then passed me on the shoulder. Couldn't tell it was a police car til he went passed due to it being dark, so he just seemed like an obnoxious SUV driver.

People still drink and drive because even if they lose their license, its just a slap on the wrist to be driving without a license anyway.

not really i'd say its a lot harsher then all these ppl that bash the crap out of innocent ppl for no reason or stab em etc are coppping..

those guys from the hungry jacks bashing ill be suprised if they get 12 months jail.. its a f*kn joke no wonder ppl wana arm them selves and bring on some vigilante justice the courts are pathetic.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.

      Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.

      So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
