Re: Is this anything ?..... - rev 01 - 19-06-2005
A fellow busa rider told me a story today about people going to court in NSW (I think) to challenge traffic infringements & getting a successful outcome.
Consequently you would assume that there would be no de merit points recorded against your licence in that case right ???
WRONG !! The RTA or whoever they are decided to thumb their noses at the law & record points regardless of any court findings.
Now come on you NSW blokes, tell me that story is bullshit

Re horn - Djpete - 19-06-2005
Chopper,
The horn idea is simple.
If everyone blasted their horn when they went past a manned speed camera imagine
1 the noise
2 how it would be a show of solidarity
3 the media running the story if it got bad enough
4 end result is a great way to show the goverment that the public have had enough
Of course still warn others of the bastards too... Cheers,
Pete

There was an article confirming this on Current Affair on Friday night.
These days, they have too much technology on not enough common sense.

Re: Points even when case dismissed - rev 01 - 20-06-2005
Well there you go, so it is true, a government agency treating the public it is there to serve with utter contempt out of sheer spite & malice because someone with authority ( a Magistrate) acted with justification & found against them
So even if you win, they make you lose
How long will it be before they take away our democratic rights to challenge ANYTHING ? this seems to be the first step
though
Hardly surprising in this day & age & that I'm afraid, is a totalitarian regime right there
You can't even fly this anymore without someone bitching about it

Re: First and final warning - nickmakwell - 20-06-2005
Interesting tactic this:
"But of course it wont go to court, because he wont know who i am because i dont wear number plates while commuting any more."
by Beestroyer?
It just happens that I dont wear my rear plate anymore on my truck, only cause it snapped off!!!
and a bloke in the BMW Club up here, who is a motorbike cop, has told me if you want to go for a blat, just leave your license plate at home.....
but cant they get ya for something else - i mean if you are in traffic, and are 'caught' (not flying by at 180mph) by plod, can they book you for not having a plate?
I have been done for obscuring plate - had a film in between the plate and protector!!!!
Its a shame we have to resort to these tactics isnt it?
Re: First and final warning - Djpete - 20-06-2005

Come on Bee...fess up...were u fair dincum and what does happen if caught..?? Cheers,

Re: Re horn - Chopper Bob 1 - 23-06-2005
DJ, it is a good idea to sound the horn when passing a radar unit. Unfortunately it will not work across the board. People are too piss weak to do this. It is hard enough to get them to flash their lights and the only reason they do is because it is silent and they have little or no chance of being caught. I have had people tell me they would never flash their lights because it is illegal and they may get a fine. It would be 20 years since I started flashing lights and how many drivers do it now? Not bloody many, we are in the minority.
Encourage the flashing, beep if you want to but don't expect much support.
Good luck. Regards
Chopper

Hey dudes long time no post. This work things a bitch..
Riding without a plate on your bike is an offence in Queensland (section 24 - www.legislation.qld.gov.a...RR99.pdf). I dont know what the fine is but its about $130 last time I had to act for some punter charged with this offence. There aren’t any demerit points attached to the offence but usually the coppers with give you a summons to appear in court rather than a ticket and then the Judge has the discretion to cancel your licence regardless of how many points you have left. You can also be charged for flashing your lights - for obstructing police, although I have only heard of this - never seen it actually happen. Insofar as contesting tickets, you either win or lose. If you lose then the court will fine you, or suspend your licence - the Magistrate doesn’t have the jurisdiction to make any determinations about demerit points as demerit points are allocated statutorily by the Transport Dept. The only way of avoiding demerit points is to get off the charge completely, which is essentially impossible these days, no matter what you might read in the newspaper or see on Today Tonight. Sucks arse doesn’t it?
