Our rights as motorists

yes the lights were attached to the car via the cable, and were being dragged accross the ground at 130km/h. it was pretty funny

[blabla]

^ No.
They cannot judge your speed by 'glimpse' They are not ninjas, we just assume the all are lol.
My advice to you, is to not open your mouth or deny everything until you see a speed camera reading.

"It looked like he was doing XXX" will not hold up in court. I know this through experience.

You are innocent until proven guilty.
First mistake everyone makes is admitting guilt before seeing the police officers evidence.
"Do you know how fast you were going back there ?"
"Yea about XXX over"

His got you.

I got done speeding because they herd me! WTF!! i took the fine because I didnt want to argue it.


Seriously my advice SHUT THE **** up and node your head and say yes sir no sir then ask for his name and badge number.

Check this I was turning right from Smithfield RD to go onto ELIZABETH DRIVE Bonnyrigg (SYDNEY) just about to turn into a side street to head home I get pulled over cop asks for my license etc gave him the license COP Ask's do you know what the speed limit is here mate i said ye I do 70 cop says no its not, I turn to him and say mate there is a sign few back thats says 70 cop mumbles under his breath, keeps looking at my license looks at me 2-3 times. I say look i have put on some beef since that photo cop says no need to be rude BRO cop gives license back and walks away what a gronk.

Police are stupid, They will chase after any p plater but when there is a drug deal going down the road from ur house they do **** all!

Just another thing I would like to add is that the Police are actually aloud to be on their mobiles because they might be on a case seriously wtf pull over lol

Sorry,

At what point did you get a ticket?

If you think he's in the wrong, take it to court. It's not difficult; he's the one that's going to need to come up with the basis for giving you a ticket for speeding.

Also, cops can't just arrest people on the say of you that a drug deal went down; to arrest them they need to witness it; unless you and another witness are willing to testify to it happening and will identify them -- and I very much doubt you'd step up to do that.

I see people talking on their phones all the time; at least the cops are unlikely going to be having a gossip session with their bestie while they sway in and out of their lane.

There are bigger issues than cops on phones -- like people who shouldn't be on the road in the first place.

the first page of this thread literally blew me away. all these car enthusiasts getting out of tickets because they didn't admit to them and the cop didn't show them a radar reading. yet i know a 50 year old man who was not speeding, got done 30ks over the limit, asked to see the radar gun, got told to **** off, took it to court and lost. not saying anyone here was talking shit, it just amazed me.

Pardon? He was not speeding, but was done for 30km over the limit? Was denied being shown the radar, was told to **** off, and lost the court case?

Seems like a more extraordinary set of circumstances than the other stories, as far as I'm concerned.

Sounds like a chunk of truth is missing.
But it seems like a great story to tell your mates as you sit around telling each other how much the Police force sucks.

Yeah i'm sure theres something missing here, because they cant refuse to show you a speed reading, they usually offer to show you your speed on the camera or ask if you want to see it.
If they cant provide that (and they told him to **** off, which i think would probably be considered some sort of misconduct) then there's no reason why you should lose the case in court.
