	learn these words:  "I'm sorry, it was an accident"
 
 
"35.  Without limiting any defence under Chapter 2 of the Criminal Code referred to in clause 33, a person is not liable to a penalty for any offence under this Regulation or the Australian Road Rules if the person proves to the satisfaction of the court dealing with the case that the offence:
 
   (a) was the result of an accident, or "
 
 
This applies to the "continuous breaking of traction" which is the law cops pin on a burnout.  I was lucky, when I got pulled over for doing a "burnout" (I was finishing a 3-point turn and dumped the clutch too fast) I said it was an accident, and the cops didn't even try and pin it on me.
 
 
Tried to defecet my car, wanted a look in the boot, and gave me an official warning...  but no points no fine.
 
 
I would *definitly* be arguing that one.  You wont have much luck with the RTA though, they very rarely revoke a fine unless it was a clerical error.  A judge almost certainly will though, and you wouldn't even need a lawyer (a witness would help a lot tho, if the cop decides to stretch the truth)
