3rd speeding fine 139km/h in a 100 zone 4 points $180
4th reckless driving(read roadrage) 4 points $220
Licence was suspended for 3 months. I continued driving(very stupid)
5th U-turn at intersection(no sign) 2 points $60 and a court date.
Licence was suspended for another 3 months and a $350 fine. I continued driving(very fuking stupid)
6th Fail to stop at stop sign. 3 points $135 and a court date.
Lost my licence completly for 2 years and a $750 fine. Needless to say I learnt my lesson! I now dont drive.

Total fines = $2015
Only 18 months to go

Yeah I lost mine about 2 years ago, for doing 119 in a 70 zone. Lost 6 points, had my licence suspended for 3 months, but the real killer was the $1419 fine.
I figured I'd get my car painted in that 3 months, but it blew out to a bit longer...... like another 15 months longer (18 months in total). Oh well, at least it's on the road now. I gotta give it a bit more power now.......
Hey showtime, if you don't mind me asking, how much was your fine?
I rarely meet someone who's been done for anything, including DUI (which is the worst offence in my opinion, not that I'm pinning or anything....), who has been fined more than me.
EDIT: Jeezus, take the above thread as a perfect example!!!!!

Yeah
First fine i had was for doing 85km in a 60km zone, $165 and 3 points (my mum took that one for me)
Second time i lost my licence for four months for doing 108km in a 60km zone, i was trying to race a wrx, copped a $300 dollar fine, six points, passenger restriction for a year, oh and 11 month extension on my p's on top of the 4 month extension, though i continued to drive.
Third fine was for doing 89km in a 60km zone (nearly lost it again) cause i was late for work. That cost $200 and another 3 points.
So far i have spent $665 on fines and lost 12 points, i should have been on suspension or good boy option this time but as i pointed out above my mum took my first fine so i am lucky, she is not so though as she lost all her points and is on the 12 month option.

well
f*ck
and here I was thinking you guys were responsible... I feel all out of place
my only fine was $184 and 3 points for 79 in a 60 zone (but it was actually a 70 zone.. stupid copper)
my brother is still on suspension for DUI resulting in his car wrapped around a tree, his reading was 0.21 I think ... it was the highest at the meetings he had to attend
my other brother wrote off my mum's car into a tree while unlisenced... so genetics are against me... my friends all say the 1G will be the end of me
of course, I regularly speed 15+ (and 45+), but I just do it sensibly
what did you lose your lisence for yogi?

Cool1,
With a record like that, maybe you can speak to the RTA and get a special free number plate like WANKER OR DICKHEAD! Then again maybe a big sticker on the back window would do the trick.

Speaking personally, I've never lost a licence, but I've copped a couple of speeding fines over approx. 17 years of driving.
Luckily for me, When I received these fines, I was on licences which didn't have points "attached"...
As for DUI, I won't judge anyone. I can only hope you've learnt from your mistake. One of my brothers went DUI in the mid-80s and I thought "Shit, he won't do THAT again..." Wrong! He went DUI not once, but twice more! (3rd time lost licence for two years and was told "don't bother appealing". I think he finally got the message...
Road rage? Did anyone see the news piece the other night about some wanker in a 4X4 who went beserk as a result of a minor bingle in Sydney? Rammed the other car (an orange BMW, if memory serves) and attempted to stab the driver before pissing off...Now that is a complete wanker!!!

Cant beet the radio, and then when thay do catch you thay will drag you out the passanger door king hit you in the face and add resisting arrest (by beeing difficult to drag out the passanger side of your car) and assulting a police officer (with your face agenst his fist)
i have found it much better to just pull over as soon as you see them throw there coffee out the window and think of a decent story, saved me from geting done for 160-170 in a 110 zone it was droped back to 140
speeding down a fwy at 9am on a sunday is one thing .05 or other offences are just plain stupid i personaly think it should be .00 spend the beer/weed money on your car or paying off what ya owe!

exactly!
screw the 0.05 .. ANY alcohol impairs your ability to drive, and too many people out tehre have little enough ability as is.
it should be a 0.02 limit for everyone (which is basically no drinks)

Touch wood....I made it past my P's with no fines/points. We only had them for one year when I got them, beat the new laws by just under two months.
I dont see anything wrong with speeding under safe conditions. By safe, I'm kinda in agreeance with Allan. An empty multi-lane freeway is safe. Like when you pelt along at 200kph because you are running late
There is NO way I could be DUI. Its crazy! Every time I've got drunk, you sit there and think, I dont have the ability to see/think/walk straight, how the hell am I going to control 1200kg of metal!!

is that 1 point left on P's, or 1 point left of your 12?
I never understand how people lose all their points on their lisence, except maybe thru getting unlucky with speeding a fair bit

Cool1, I guess those words were a little harsh but still, it all sounds pretty stupid and I'm sure you've learnt your lesson. We've all been caught with the odd speeding ticket and that I can understand. Its the DUI that really shits me and gets under my skin.
As for Mr Cool Tim, I wasn't even talking to you, but I wouldn't mind seeing that Celica of yours. A man with that much to say must have a mighty fine car for all to see? Or maybe its just another stock shitty, hence the picture of the yellow number plate next to your name?

Yeah it's just a stock shitty, it has keyless entry big stereo and a custom interior (with lots of velour and thick pile shag) and, I must admit, ricey blue neons replace the interior light. I managed to give it a remote boot realease thoough. that's cool... I am picking up a 1ggte on wednesday though and then things shall get moving can't decide weather or not to paint the engine bay whilst it's out though....
Anyways, after owning 1100cc bikes, cars never are going to seem fast are they??
No use being a lameass Justin, just don't bitch on other people. It's not nice...
(cool) Tim
P.S. the number plates kinda more like under my name...
