isnt it strange how if they see a 'New Holden' they probably wont pull him over, but if a old R32 doing the correct thing on the road is spotted, theres no second thoughts about pulling him over, the lights just go on. one of my relatives was doing a course in law were he became a cop for about 1 year and he quit it, the reason was; "Cops are so corrupted these days, they think that just because they try to enforce the law they think they can break it, theres always at least 1 out of 10 good cops, but its getting worse every year"

Burns just remember to keep it cool and dont rush ahead, you'll win this.

hey if you want to get off the fine you would be more likely to do so if you can say you did it because it was safer to do so than remain completely in your lane.

Say what you first brought up, thought there was an accident and slowed down and moved away from the roadside edge to take a more safe route. Then you can use the picture of the cop as it too looks like he has moved away from road edge over the centre of the lane because he's seen your father there and its the safest route because a pedestrian might step out in front.

Try and take the 'its more safer route' rather than try and dodge the issue up. Of course you wont have much chance of convincing them that you were being 'safer' if say you have a total of 11 points, in that case I would just let it slide.

hogans ghost!!! hahaha use the alf stewart pic!!! thats so piss funny, hahaha. if the world was a perfect place, that alf stewart pic would stand up in court. get alf to come in and be the eye witness....ya flamin mongrels

as far as i know self preservation is a valid defence to any road-related offence (protecting yourself)

if you state the the road was unsafe, and that you moved across the line to protect yourself etc, and then use the evidence of a police car doing the same. (by agreeing with you that he was doing it for a "saftey" reason also gives the officer an easier way out of an embarrasing situation)

even then the court may not accept the digital photos as evidence.

also im pretty sure u can't "spring" the photos on the cops in court while they are testifying as others have previously stated

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
