OK the story is. I was pulled over TWICE for rolling down the same massive hill too fast (once without green p's). camera got me at some 50 zone .

so offenses are:

#-title-demerit:

1-camera - 3

2-speeding (paid) - 3

3-speeding - 3

4-no plates - 2

Sadly all this occured within 3 weeks. Well, I've paid number 2 about 1 week ago but according to the RTA site the points have not been written on yet.

Now obviously I'm well over 7 demerit points by 4, browsing through the forums i see people in similar situation have served a 2 x 3month suspension while others have claimed they've only served 1 x 3 month suspension. Taking a guess this might have been due to a delay in processing points? Well i want some advice as if i should pay it all off asap or should wait till the "paid penalty" is cleared (points show up on site hopefully within 21 days) then pay the rest?

What a sad month this has been. There has never been any cops on that hill for the past year :D. Oh well i got to save a R32 by flashing him as he was obviously speeding crazy.

i have no idea how it works, but it would seem that your only chance of getting the single 3 month exceed demerit points suspension is to pay the remaining ones on the same day. then hopefully (for you) they will process those points as having been accrued on the same date so it's just the once 'instance' of exceeding your 7 point limit.

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
