I got one a while back, about 3 weeks? $190 /95 in an 80 zone.
Thought I got off with a warning, cop pulled me over asked why I was speeding, did a rego check, and then told me to slow down.
Didn't tell me I was being booked, didn't give me a ticket, just turned up in the mail....was I pissed off or what!!!

All speed detecting equipment should allow for a 10% deviation as the ADR's allow for up to 10% speedo error.

You could use this book and never be held responsible for your actions again, makes you wonder what sort of bloke would write a book like that.

An ex policeman. ..that's a precision answer Magilla. :Y:
 
Can't say much more except that you can claim the cost of the book in court costs as well. :Y:

I have about 7 speeding infringements that i am not guilty of.

I tried taking 3 of them to court and the judges didnt listen to a word that i or my lawyers said and f***** me over.

I tried that link above for one of them and represented myself , and the judge laughed at me and the guy immediately after me who launched into the same speil given to us by " aussie speeding fines " , that guy is full of ***** and so are the courts.

My infringements are all from fixed speed cameras and i was pinged when i had no intention of breaking the law.

1) a tyre shop fitted the wrong sized tyres on my vehicle ( fitting 225.60.16 tyres when they should have fitted 205.60.16 ) , i didnt notice until i got 2 fines in the mail for the same location , i checked my speedo at a NATA certified lab and it was out by 11 % but at the time i was working 100 hours a week and didnt take those to court.

2) Victoria Rd at Ryde , NSW , I slowed down to 40 for a school zone , drove past the school , drove past a second set of signs on the left and started to speed up to 60 again where i saw the flash , the speed camera is 210 meters after that school and there is actually 2 schools within 300 meters of each other with the school zone finishing way further up the road . the c**ts who installed the camera have conspired to take advantage of the anomalies in that location to trick people into speeding when they had no intention to do so.

3) King Georges Rd , Hurstville , NSW , i drove up a street where there is a sign that said "school Zone" but the sign is overgrown with trees , i turned out of the street into King Georges Rd and was pinged doing 56 k's in what i thought was a 60 zone , i took that to court too with photos and the judge said " It is the responsibility of the motorist to know where schools are" and f*****d me on that one too.

4) Woodville Rd , Guildford . It was 2 days after school started back , i drove up Oxford Rd where there are supposed to be flashing yellow warning lights , they were not working that morning and i thought " thats funny , maybe this school didnt start back yet" , i turned into Woodville Rd and the camera pinged me , The infringement notice didnt arrive until at least 2 weeks after the event so my dash cam had already overwritten itself and i had no proof that the yellow lights were not flashing.

5) Hume highway / Woodville Rd intersection at Villawood . I drive through the intersection twice a day , I had seen the red light camera flashing in that intersection randomly for about 3 months prior , even when there are no vehicles in the intersection , and sometimes when the lights are green the camera still flashes , I have also seen the amber light phasing on very short cycles of what seems like 1 - 1.5 seconds . It made me paranoid about getting pinged inside the intersection so one day i was driving through it with the light green and i sped up to get through in case the amber short cycled on me but guess what , the camera pinged me for speeding as i was at 70 k's as i left the intersection , the speed limit changes to 70 about 100 meters further on but that didnt satsify the SDRO when i wrote a letter to the scumm and they claimed the speed camera and lights are "within specification".

6) Welling Street , Mount Annan . The speed limit in this street changes about 11 times over a distance of 6 km , i got pinged doing 60 in a 50 zone , the cop pulled me up 50 metres before the sign that said 60 yet they still upheld the infringement.

There are more but i am getting too upset to write any more.

I have lived in this country 30 years and never broken the law.

I have done hundreds of things that would classify as " Good Samaritan acts"

What do i think of "the system" ?

You take a ***** guess.

I feel your pain!!

The other day I got one in the mail 63 in a 60, God i get pissed.......

While I was driving trucks I had a highway cop write me up for 102 in a 100, I challenged it and won, the truck then had 6 safety checks in 8 weeks after the court case.......on the same highway....funny that :eek:

Hey Bazz, what pissed you off, the low tolerance 63 in a 60 or the fact you got caught? Was it a patrol or camera?

Hey ManPa

Well my state of pissed offness came primarily from the fact that I failed to notice him sculking around in the bushes!! and that I really didn't expect to be caught (another lapse in the stupidity meter) for 3 kph... Ooops! my own stupidity meter AGAIN!!!


;)
 
Ah!!!! you never know whats in the mail these days , last November got a letter you have been nabbed for speeding 10 k over the 60 k limit where Mt Victoria looked it up on the website yep that looks like lee midnight and the only car on the road travelling up and over Mt Victoria next trip was extra careful wheres the camera well theres a right dangerous bend going down the pass over 60 and your on the concrete barrier but coming up go round the bend road straightens up and you don't realise your doing 70kph , the camera is on the overhead gantry with the truck point to point apparatus what do you say its is a 60 zone but is it dangerous for up hill travel no
at least I can say I'm happy it only cost me $116 pension bucks lol now have a disrespect for the police, all revenue raising one night got pulled over What the f I Thought opened my door up and heard "stay in the vehicle driver" replied only getting my drivers licence out is that an offence next thing theres a bloke with a rabbit on a stick , this is RBT in action counted to 10 and was told to get on the way, after thought passed the breathalyser should have said to the camera man hey man like a joint but bit my tongue that night lol
what i have been told by cops we have discretion but its a target tally the more you get the better you look to the FORCE
 
I use a navigation app on my phone called Waze, it's great, it directs you around bad traffic, shows speed cameras and anyone can report police traps and mobile speed cameras.

I tried to get out of a speeding ticket a few years back, the RMS sent me a letter back saying that there is no point for me to ever ask for leniency again in my life due to my past traffic record..... :( That bad stuff was all in my late teens and early 20's. My worst was 160kmh in an 80 zone. :rolleyes: That was a $500 fine and loss of license 27 years ago.

I'm not too bad these days, only 4 points down in the past 3 years at the moment, gotta be careful.
 
Police were going to try to use past record for me from 25 yrs ago too, but it wasn't even me anyway.... reminds me that I need to get that driving history record fixed somehow now.
