EVILTD Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 GUYS, cut the dude some slack... I mean, yeah, he was stupid, idiotic etc... but hey, he's done what he has done... give him some support... Like I had said before ... you will be charged, fined and probably (most likely I must say) imprisoned for a few months... but you will have to be strong and stand up and take it up the arse... Having said that, shyte happens... just think of it as a very very expensive lesson... From what I have heard from other friends in similiar circumstances... mostly likely they will impound your car... I would sell it if I were you... Laterz now..

Johnny Cash Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Yeah they do. We all do. And shame on you all for judging him... NONE of you have that right. I would say you're looking at some jail time, and you'd be CRAZY not to get a lawyer. If you're VERY lucky, you may get away with some community service, but I doubt it.

I mean, yeah, he was stupid, idiotic etc... but hey, he's done what he has done... give him some support... Why would we support some idiot who endangers other peoples lives? I think he should do some time because obviously they have been far too lenient before and he didn't learn. Maybe his room mate 'Bubba' might make him think twice afterwards.

GTR R35 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 We should start a tote on the punnishment he will get. My bet is for" 6 months periodic detention 5 year disqualification from driving $5,500 fine + court costs Hopefully Habib, you WILL learn from this. If you drive again without a license or like a maniak, I assure you you will either spend a LOT longer in gaol or may be killed or worse kill someone else.

Kozeyekan Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Yeah they do. We all do. And shame on you all for judging him... NONE of you have that right. I would say you're looking at some jail time, and you'd be CRAZY not to get a lawyer. If you're VERY lucky, you may get away with some community service, but I doubt it. None of us have the right to judge him? I disagree. When this stuff happens it reflects badly on us all. On this forum, we hear of people constantly saying they are being victimised for choosing to drive a skyline... that insurance is higher, especially for younger drivers... that cops go over the car with a fine toothed comb based solely on ethnicity.... this is a classic example of why this happens... I seriously hope it's someone taking the piss in a late april fools joke. To argue against the people of this forum judging a person by his actions is to condone those actions... to do nothing is much worse. Personally, I'd say get rid of the car. You cannot handle it. End of story. You tried kid, but your overwhelming desire to prove your manhood by battling off some bogan in an SS shows that you're not yet ready for anything beyond a ford fiesta. It's really no different than picking a barfight because you think you can show how manly you are, except less people are killed in barfights than in streetraces. go home. Pack your bags. Say hi to the other criminals, for that is exactly what you are, a criminal. You and those like you make life harder for us all. Bah, I'm ranting. I'm turning into my father. I have the sudden urge to say "Are you happy now? you broke it!"

Rolls Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Mate, aren't Skylines, like all Jap imports, electronically speed limited (governed) to 180 km/h? If so, how could you be doing 187?!?! If you could prove that it was still limited to 180 and it was an acurate limit then you might be able to question the accuracy of the radar. Just a thought.

MANWHORE Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 What's a solicitor going to do??? Try to prove he wasn't speeding??? If he was dragging someone he's gone, no one in the world (EVEN the judge) can do anything about it, he broke the law for no reason, and they will get him. I've noticed that a lot of guys have just been flaming you, and knocking you, when i'm sure you already feel like shit, and don't need to be punched in the face while you're already on the ground. You're young, and may not have gotten over that speedy phase yet. Anyways, even where you are wrong, a solicitor/barrister can always help you immensley. The issue is with our court system (not a bad thing, because that's where i'll be making my money) is for the lay person, it is heavily biased against you. If you try and represent yourself, you won't know what to do etc. The DPP is a lawyer, so in a situation that it would be touch and go, he'd win. As a lay person, it is simply very difficult, if not impossible to know everything you need to know. e.g. what about if the DPP attempts to bring in hearsay evidence etc, will you challenge him citing provisions of the Evidence act 1995? or say if the DPP is attempting to prove the elements of your offence, are you able to identify the relevant section of the crimes act/other legislation etc. Get a good lawyer. he'd be able to advise you about what to do etc, and represnt you. I have had a friend in a similar situation, and the lawyer costed him $800 for the day. that's very cheap.

You're young, and may not have gotten over that speedy phase yet. try telling him that if he hurt one of your family members in the process. im sure your point of view will change dramatically. fair enough everyone has had their 'speedy' phase. but do u seriously need to go 187km to show your faster?

He was cool with it,but still stepped on it when the lights turned green. Always easy to say no to these kinda things....
