i was pulled over and given 2 speeding tickets at the same time by 2 different cop (i really mean same time thye were both there one waiting to get my licence of the other one)

the first cop said that he got me on radar speeding in CABRAMMATA (2 suburbs away from where i was actually pulled over )(hume highway)

the second one similarly BUT IN BASS HILL (hume highway as well). i was given both tickets in BASS HILL.

ANY1 have any ideas if is is alloweD? like if i acutally got pulled over in cabrammatta for speeding wat are the chances ill speed again? i was like given 2 fines because i was speeding just because 2 cop car saw me doin it. its bullocks!!!

if you argue the point that the 2 officers saw u doin the same offence not two separate offencers one of the fines should be waved but not garanteed i had a cousin with the same prob but he got out of it.

Mate if you know some1 that has knowledge of the system i would query them about this.

If i was you i would probably appeal the 2nd speeding fine!

Goodluck

i guess the question is did u know you copped the first one till you got pulled over for the second one ? then one could argue yes you were still speeding . i think they will take them as been 2 seprate offences but they took the oportunity to give ya both at the same time .if one got you with the gun in one suburb but took him 2 suburbs to pull ya over and u got done again by another copper for speeding in the meantime i think your just gunna have to wear it . maybe slow down and you would not have anyof them lol

Don't bother going to a police station, they won't help you.

Best go see one of those lawyers that specialise in traffic matters.

The first one was for speeding in Cabramatta, the second one was for speeding in Bass Hill.

They are two seperate tickets for two seperate offences, and is perfectly legal. I dont think you have much of a chance getting out of these ones.

[Freddy Kruger]

the question is, were you speeding? if you were stop your bishing and cop it in the chin.

[mad082]

you should've asked to see the radar gun with the speed. they legally have to show you the speed, otherwise you could claim that you weren't speeding for the first offence.

[AlexR34]

Yeah mate, your best option is go see a good lawyer, it might cost you around $50-80 dollars an hour but might save you lots of money on paying the fines, and the advice shouldnt take longer then an hour. Good luck.

[readyGO]

appeal it, go to court and argue that it was the same offence..

dont go to a lawyer, its too expensive

[R32gts-t]

no different to you driving through two fixed speed cameras,

wipe off five.

[lastlineofdefence]

um, no they dont. thats a load of bs.

[mad082]

if you ask to see it they do. otherwise you can claim that you weren't speeding and your were just getting picked on.

You were speeding through different areas would be like going through a speed camera and then getting pulled over 2k down the road because you were still speeding.'

Best advice you'll get here is dont speed. And before you go saying everyone does ive never had a speeding fine and thats not just because i havnt been caught. how fast were you going in the 2 offences?

LoL thats very unlucky, you must have been hauling ass

I wouldnt bother fighting it, its done by two different cops in two different suburbs, just happened to be around the same time

[gtr fan]

Yeah they don't have to show you the radar gun, I once aksed to see it and He already cleared it. Went to the local station and it turns out they are not obligated to show you the readout.

y didnt the one in cabra pull me over str8 away? then i woulda stop speeding (n may have prevented any accidents n kill innocient people etc etc on the way0

[mad082]

i would be contesting it if i wasn't shown the gun and done for doing 71 in a 60 zone, as you could argue that they added 2kmh onto your speed so you would lose more points off your licence.

[Amaru]

They quite often follow you around to see how many more laws you break.

then i woulda stop speeding (n may have prevented any accidents n kill innocient people etc etc on the way0

For the simple fact you said that, no offence, indicates you are a complete and utter tool. If you are so concerned about accidents and killing people you shouldnt have been speeding in the first place. The primary responsbility is on YOU.
