Hey all. Last august i got my first speeding ticket and now that I've paid it off its time to reveal my evil deed.
Date 27/8/2002 (days after my B/Day)
Time 10:00 am
Car (this is ridiculous)
White Toyota |SEDAN|? Its an ST162 for christ's sake.
Offence: Non-School Zone exceed speed limit by > 45 km/h
Speed: 110KPH Zone Limit: 60 KPH
Note that i no longer drive so wrecklessly, but i still think its something worth framing!!

Oh and the fine was a whopping $1447 and 6 points.
Normally ACT drivers only have 4 points, but i did a special course which gave me 4 extra and the right to take off my P's!

I had a mate a few years ago who got done doing 200 in a 100 zone on a bike with a bald rear tire. Ended up with a $600 fine and lost all but one point the cop hand delivered the fine to his front door.
The guy actually made it on to John Laws talk back the next day (i hate that man) where he got bagged out on national radio.

It's called P-Off. And yes, the ACT rules. It's a rogue state when it comes to licensing rules

Same here. i think the cop that stopped me was too enthralled by his prior donut purchase to really be angry with me.
On top of that. He booked me for not displaying my P's!!
Overkill if you ask me
