Like having drunk sex with an oversize ugly chick?

Just to rub it in

It's not only sign posted it's painted on the road

Panda, I objected to a speeding ticket 18mths ago for doing 67 in a 60 zone & got off...I went to the exact site that was stated on the ticket, took a photo of the 80km sign that was about 20m away and sent it, along with a letter explaining why I could've been doing that speed (basically, I mentioned that 1. I was either slowing down from the 80, and left it a bit late...2. I was prematurely speeding up.) In the letter I mentioned that I hadn't had a ticket in over 10 years, I make a point of not speeding in built-up areas (didn't mention open road) and that I thought it was "very poor form" that they would resort to parking a camera car within a 20m vicinity of an 80km zone...I also stated that I believe that the area that is zoned for 60km should be reviewed as it is not near shopping, school, or residential zones, it has a service lane running parallel, and that it is on a main hwy...

Not sure if they read all of my letter, or infact believed me...but it got me off the hook!

Wifey (who NEVER speeds) copped a $300 & 6 points fine on the way down to Pemberton on the long weekend (double demerits and double points).

I was catching some zzz in the shotty and woke as the incident happened. Fair enough she was going 93 in a 70 zone, although she honestly believed it was a 90 zone as she had already exited the country town quite a while back and was (ahem speeding) south, as were the all of the cars in front, which were also over the limit but not stopped. We were stopped as we were the last car in a line.

The unhappy dyke (sorry but she was definately both) that issued the ticket had a bad attitude and knew they were operating in a really sneaky revenue collecting spot. Wifey was clocked going down a slight dip in the road and 50-100m freakin metres before it actually is a 90km zone!! Bad form.. Add to this that at the time most Perth coppers weren't even issueing tickets due to industrial action. Kn kn kn kn kn fk!!![}:)]

I am all for making the roads safer and understand the need to stop cars hooning through country towns (strange that the coppers were on the leaving side of the town rather than the entering side??) but set-ups (and this was a classic one) like this don't achieve anything other than a lack of cred for the coppers involved.


BTW Panda would the infringement-fest described above have anything whatsoever to do with the fines kitty being unusually low due to weeks of no fines being issued? Might just be - I'd say.

Oops.. sure they wern't so desperate for chrissy function funds they didn't scoot over to banana land?

I forgot panda was from Qld.. he has always seemed to make sense previously.. strange?

Are yes.. the inspiration behind Welsh eh Green Mwyvnderleshntl?
