your situation is ****ed. been there done that. don't go the lawyer route. waste of cash. they'll bring up all your driving offences and judge your character on that. which don't look like you got a chance. most likely you'll get a 12 month disqualification and a $500-$600 fine. well that's what i got anyway. plus you'll pay the $50 fee that the police charge to take you to gaol, but you wont go to gaol. since this is you first drive whilst suspended offence. and if you got caught in double demerits its 2X time and 2X cash owed.

My mate got caught street racing, yes it was put down as street racing by the witnessing cop.. he paid big money for his lawyer and also had to pay court fees.

In the end, he still had to serve one year on top of the time he was waiting for his case to go on trial.

Go figure, all that and still cop a year. its pretty hard to contest depending on your situation and record. Best of luck dude, lol ..

A work mate got his license disaqualified for 3 years and his parents paid 20k for a lawyer. he was going to serve jail time but got that 3 years no license and 260 hours community service.

No license, under the influence, no rego and led a police chase LOOL JESUS people. A license is a privilege, lets all respect it.

Lol i think i know this person

the judge said "your convicted" and handed out the penatly 450 and 1year. Does that mean I now have a criminal conviction?

I have jury duty coming up. Will I be ineligible for it?
