[MrR33]

yeah - i saw that article - todays herald - ' "blitz on hotted up vehicles" A WEEKEND police blitz targeting illegally modified (cant be arsed typing the rest, but u get the drift) blah blah skylines etc' hmmm, must b that time of year...

perhaps that explains why the last few day a group of street draggers seem to have moved into our area, last few nights have been absolutely nuts - extremely loud on Friday night.

They followed me tonight to see if I put on a burst of accelleration or not up a skinny dark side street tonight and then did a u-turn after I accelerated like a normal car. 5 minutes later going back saw this same p car pulled up a yellow TR7 with a FMIC!

Watch how you drive and keep your exhaust quiet at low revs.

Seems to me that every time any car incidents happen in my area - particularly where the mega rich and a whole bunch of upper middle class people in Southern side of Sydney live - the laws get changed or the police have a blitz.

Bloody 10%ers.

Sorry I won't say where.

Someone tell me is this blitz a Labour party initiative - what is Liberals stance on driver fines speed camera style revenue raising ? I thought liberal were the ones getting way too tough with their laws.

Speed cameras and speeding fines are proof of government corruption.

??.

Do you have to carry your compliance certificate papers?

How much is a defect fine, and if you replace the offending defected part, is the fine eliminated?

Nope. The plate in the engine bay is enough.

The fine depends on what's wrong and the kind of mood that the cop is in. I think most are around $74, but don't quote me on that....The fine is not eliminated after you clear the defect. You still have to pay it.

any one else get pulled over b'cos the cop "couldn't get a result when doing a plate check on you?"

I was outside the coogee palace and saw a cop car next to mine in the parking lot (paddy wagon). I asked him whats all the commotion about and why there are sooo many highway patrol out. He said to me is that your car (pointing to mine), after saying yes he told me that he would not even reccomend me to drive it home and leave it there till tomorrow mourning.

They're pulling over any import, WRX or hotted Commodore they can see. I reckon you'll walk home with a defect one way or another...

T.
