    Jap import fresh off the boat, taking it 800m to a mates place at midnight. Rounded a corner 4 cops cars wedge me in and accuse me of being in a high speed chase.
    No Number Plates.
    No Rego.
    No Insurance.
    Off to court then no license.

    Apart from that about a dozen speeding fines over the last 10 years but never enough to lose my license.

    And dave don't worry about people on their high horse every time I speed at the time the reason seems valid, its not until i think about it after that I realise maybe it wasn't the best idea. Hindsight it a wonderful thing.

    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....

    I did this also. It was my first and only ticket (in Australia). I wrote to them telling them what a good boy I am and they whiped the fine.
    There are a few conditions though; You must not contest the fine (admit that you were speeding), It has to be under 10km/hr over the limit, You must not have had a speeding ticket in the last 2 years. Something like that anyway.

    And no I have never lost my licence. I have been to court (in NZ) to defend it though. The cop reckons I smoked it up around a corner in my 12A J port 323. I told the judge that it was a 1979 car with a 1.2 motor that used to belong to my mates grandma Click here to enlarge
