Karl, i made the choice once..

was driving from byron down to melb.. and was overtaking a truck and a cop coming the otherway did a u turn and pulled into the truck behind that... so im now 2 trucks ahead... i overtook one more truck and then planted it... he never even made it around the 2nd truck as we got to twisites after that.. i think he decided to go back to where he was heading.

i have always wanted to properly outrun cops.. but knowing me i would get caugt. I was thinking u could hook up a switch that turns off all your tail lights (and importantly number plate light) , so when u get far enough in the distance, quickly pull off into bushes and they wouldnt have a clue where u r.

yes on the m1 i've personally seen them gain ground at ummm very highish speed, and then u have to sink that size ten to the floor and watch them disappear in the distance, but i wouldn't recommend doing that during the day.

[rb25]

and im not sure if the CCTV cameras can read number plates too. be carful on the M1....

If a cop can do 200km/hr to chase you, then why is that any less dangerous than you doing it?

anyway, fact of the matter.. speed is cheap thrills, and free fun...

That is why most people get done that far over, its not like they would do it all the time - they just happened to try it at the wrong moment and managed to get caught.

Here in VIC with 3 km/hr leeway (at any speed), it takes major concentration to stick at the speed limit. Its a whole different ballgame. Even going down a hill you have to ride the brakes to avoid paying the Government revenue scheme.

exactlyslip if i got caught, but of course they would have to catch me

[Spook's_Skyline]

i reckon the new penalties are way harsh;

bit of revenue rasing by the gov me thinx;

i got pinged 150 bux and 3 points for a 74 in a 60 the other daay

not happy;

[chaos]

the whole idea is to stop people speeding but obviously it isnt working

i am from melbourne but being doing a bit of work up near cairns and got a speeding fine for the hire car in the mail last week from the qld police. 136 in a 100 zoen, $350 and 6 points.

[BelGarion]

Yup...now you are even more ****ed.. you're gonna be walking for a long time boy !

[Guest INASNT]

not really i will get my gfriend to sign the stat dec saying she was driving so she will loose the points!!

Back In July I was a passenger in car coming back to Townsville from further north and the driver was done by a radar gun at 94 just after the limit dropped from 100 to 80. The cop dropped it to 92 and thus the penalty was only 1 point and $100.

Rather than 3 points and $250 i think if the cop wanted to be serious.

I'm from Melbourne and I thought if we were in Victoria, at 14 km/h over the limit, the driver would have been cactus.
