You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I have a pretty low opinion of the officer in questions. I was treated rather unfairly by him and he was incredibly rude and seemed to be on a power trip.

This article actually really annoyed me with the way the writer is so arrogant and ignorant calling people who get defected "idiots" and "knuckle draggers". Since I have been defected more than once, does this make me a hoon, idiot or a knuckle dragger? I have always driven sensibly and have never done any illegal modifications to me car, but it seems that is not enough.

That's the problem with outsider perspective though, mate...and the reason why Pettett will continue to be able to pull his shit. Hardly anyone in the general public believes that police would harass people unfairly until it actually happens to them or someone they know. Worse, they actually believe that innocent people must have been doing something stupid to attract negative attention to themselves, thus the "you're all idiots who endanger our lives" comments regarding a FB page based around an unfairly issued fine for lights on a car. They actually piss me off more than Pettett, because these brainwashed twits have the right to vote...

Even car enthusiasts are guilty of this...have lost track of all the defect threads in the Vic section where some ignorant fool says "just drive sensibly and you have nothing to worry about, the police have never bothered me" - no shit Sherlock, you wouldn't be saying that if they did. Then I come along and say I was driving 5km/h slower (wipe off 5?) than the rest of the traffic when a police car went through 4 red lights (that gauntlet of lights outside Knox) to pull me over for "random inspection" (read: we've been pulling Skylines over all day, yours is one of the cleaner ones). But I'm endangering people's lives with my HIDs...

tl;dr: f**k people

Hahaha glad that pic made it in to the news story. Funny thing is that was designed to bag people getting defected, but the way the news were using it was to make it look like people making fun of Pettett.

It's frustrating that the things he defects imported cars for would happen on about 95% of cars on the road. If a cop pulled over just about any car over 5 years old and gave it a detailed inspection they could defect just about anyone. My dad has an X-trail with 4 balled tyres and a cracked windscreen which I keep telling him to fix because it actually is dangerous. He is the type of person the police should be looking out for, but because he drives an X-trail he is invisible.

If cops did pull over any sort of car and hand out defects there would be a huge uproar about it and "normal" people would be saying that police need to focus on solving real problems. But by picking on a minority and making import drivers look as stupid as possible on every occasion they can get, these things can happen.

Herein lies the hypocrisy of the ignorant. All those tools crying criminal/hoon and saying it's people's own faults for driving illegal cars...I bet you could find something wrong with their cars under ADRs or RWC regulations, fine them for it and then let's see how long they keep up the "innocent my ass" mantra. Just a shame they'll never get targeted because they are driving Corollas and Priuses.
