Hey peeps,
Seeing all the talk about defects on here over the past few months, i though someone might be interested in my latest experience.
My S14 was parked out the front of a friends place during the footy on saturday, and when i came back to it sunday morning there was a defect on it, stuck to the outside of the front window, with the defect notice under my windscreen wiper. The car is defected to regency and given NIL hours to be driven, which would actually have made my car illegally parked the instant she slapped the sticker on.
The defects were for:
Bald tyres (admitted but isnt this just a cop shop defect?)
Steering wheel to be legal (momo - my old car went through regency with this wheel on it, it has the legal e4 stamp)
And the best one - Exhaust to be legal, THE CAR WASNT RUNNING SO HOW CAN IT BE TOO LOUD??????????
My question is, can they do this, i cant believe that a sticker can just be whacked on the outside of the car, surely the owner needs to be there? I have spoken to one police station and they seem to think its ok to do this but im not so sure. Has this happened to any of you.
I am trying to get in contact with the officer that put the sticker on there at the moment to discuss with her what the hell she thinks she was doing.
This shit dont seem right to me.......
