I got a court summons after a RBT unit pulled me up on the way to picking my girlfriend up from the station.
I was already disqualified for 12 months, they didn't say anything except "see you in court". No fine, no ticket ,nothing....all I got was a little piece of paper with a court appearance date on it.....
Which brings me to my next question for BlueCenturion (I think we should make up your own personal post BC)....
I was give a ticket about 3 weeks ago for speeding 15+ ( 3 points and about $197 , except it was double demerit w'end) which ended up being 6 points off my licence, now i'm left with 6.
The question is : they didn't pull me over straight away, and the fact that they were on-coming in the opposite direction with a median strip between us, can a radar detect your speed on the other side of the road (with 3 lanes between u) and why didn't they put there lights on and do a u-turn straight away. I had already traveled 2 klm's before they pulled me up. Asked if i had an exuse for speeding I said "I wasn't aware I was speeding" It was at 11.30pm just outside eastern creek raceway, there were no other cars or trafic on the road. I got done at 80 in a 60 zone.
What I would like to know ( I'd like your opinion too ac boosa) if i take this matter to court, do i have a chance, and if so can I reduce my points.
One thing i must tell you is that my driving history is not very good.....
