    Also been riding bikes for a long time and not 1 fine on them been defected twice for my fender eliminator but that's it i am semi sensible, its just these cops are ruthless they hide in bushes and have spotters on bridges ect ect they just want your money and the whole we start taking points now for your safety is BS its just more money again court costs disqual cost fines for driving disqual just a load of bs 3 points for talking on a mobile just because dumb sh*ts cant do 2 things a once and cause accidents i mean how hard is it to drive and talk on a mobile if you cant do that give up life is way harder than that.

    Three lane commonly used main roads used to be 110km when i was younger now run between 80-90 kms yet roads in the hill which dont get used as much have limits of 110 which is un safe i dont even go that fast on some of them roads but in a straight line with gaurd rails spliting on coming traffic we can only go 80 pfft

    I do put a belt on now like is said young and dumb insurance only just managed to get its as a part driver but if i was going to get it myself i doubt i could get it not for at least 5 years from my last offence. Even then i recon if have an accident i doubt they will cover it and try to get out of it .

    I've lost mine once Click here to enlarge

    Was a high speeding offence.

    Early last year, 1am, coming home from a good night out clubbing.
    I was the DD for the night and also a very tired one. Tiredness was kicking in so bad that I put my foot down to achieve some sort of adrenalin rush.

    Then got done at 159km/h in a 110km/h zone, 8 points.

    I know there is no excuse for speeding but i wasn't being stupid. M1 is 4 lanes wide and was at 1 in the morning with no one in sight.

    there is one company i know of that would be saying 10 yrs 100% clean record before they'd review the situation.

    I know we need order on the roads and im not saying that police should not speed and we should but its funny how its all so safe for the copper to accelerate to catch up and dish out the fine, what because he has had some training and some lights, why not call ahead and stay behind at a safe distance and speed until another squad car can intercept if its so bad

    You may think of me as a stupid person on the roads, but i have not had a single accident because i am extra careful partly because if i break my shit its all over no magical fix it fairies and like on a bike i drive like im invisible and i adapt my driving for my surroundings

    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....
