Mr Eps Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) Vin it takes anywhere between two days to six months.... they're pretty quick on the ball though... FYI - i have HEARD.... this is just what i've HEARD... from someone i live and hold very close to my heart of hearts that worked on a project with the department of transport... i've heard that the way that our currect system is run... that when you pay the department of transport your fine... ...the department of transport must complete your financial transaction in order for it to be processed by police to deduct your points... in short if your fine is $110.... you send a cheque / BPAY $110.50c as it's 50c over... the transaction is registered in dept of transport as "complete pending refund" to take back the 50c - they must write you a cheque for 50c... until you clear that 50c, the transaction remains incmplete and cannot be handed over to police to demerit your driving record. so the transaction remains forever in the hands of the dept of transport.. and you can not lose demerit points because you're passively blocking the next step in the process... havent given myself the opportunity to try it out yet... awaiting a guinea pig.. ...hint.... hint...
