    How dare the police do the job they are being paid for.

    Remember they don't make the laws, they are only enforcing them.

    Simple really, don't speed

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    +1 to the speeding. I got caught once dropped from a 100 to a 70 and I got caught doing 79 down a steep hill. About 100m after the limit changed.

    My car... fitted rear Eibach springs and mudflaps and changed the front grill over. It looks so much more aggressive now. Started at 4.45 and finished at 5.30... the joys of owning a decent rattle gun... then it got too dark for pics and any other work. Will see how I go and maybe get fronts fitted tomorrow then an alignment ASAP.

    I've been caught more than once, and each time the police officer asks me if I had a reason, i said "Yep, i'm a dickhead" lol.

    My view is if your willing to speed, you should be willing to cop the fine. I've calmed down alot since going to the track though, now all I worry about is keeping the car safe so I have it for track days!

    I've been booked more times then I care to remember!!!

    Always my own fault, though was once cautioned after a short conversation:

    Police: you know you were speeding right?

    Me: I do now, sorry about that.

    Police: Any particular reason you were doing XXX here?

    Me: Well none that are really a reason, except it's 2am, I'm on an expressway driving a GT3. That's about it really.

    Police: Look, jut keep it under 110 and be sensible. Off ya go.

    Me: cheers mate, champion!!!

    Some police will take into account the circumstances, others don't. But if your doing 120kph is a 60 zone at 6pm on Friday, I wouldn't expect any "discretion" to be shown. Click here to enlarge

    thats exactly what i was getting at, only time to get mad at cops is when they target your car when your doing nothing wrong, every other time its your fault...
