Tonight, i was pulled up by police in front of a police station where they were conducting RBT tests as far as i could see. The police man asked me if i had anything to drink, i said 'no not at all' because that was the truth, he then asked 'do you have your licence there?' i said yes and handed it over.

He handed it back, and then i sat there, waiting for the RBT. After nothing happened for a few secs, i asked, is that it? He said yes you can go. So i left.

My point is, i dont think the police are doing their jobs properly! Have other people been pulled over for RBT and not tested like me??

Even when i was caught speeding about 2 months ago, they wrote me the ticket, but did not even bother to breathalyse me. What if someone was drunk and speeding? They wouldnt stop them!

Ive brought this up cuz its the second time, and i think its really stupid of the police.

Plus when i was pulled up tonight, another officer was looking over my car and writing down stuff, i dont know what for...but that was worrying....

Hmmm.. I don't think the cop did anything wrong. In fact I would have driven away thinking "What a good cop"..

You see.. in the USA they are not allowed to breathlise you unless they have reason to suspect your drunk. Hence the 'walk the line please sir' test.

RBT's in our country employ the guilty until proven innocent concept which is total bullsh*t!!!

That cop was a good guy.. he believed you.

first thing about a some (not all) drink drivers, you would probaly smell the alcohol almost straight away. You would behave differently as well.

Im sure the officer was been lazy, and was filtering out the likey drink drivers.

But i also rekon they were not interested in breather-lising you, they should be checking as many people as possible, drink driving is stupid.

I want to know more about the oficer writing stuff down...

i have been RBT'd a fiew times, one of them in castle hill the oficer walked all around my car with a notepad and was writing shit down... i have no idea what for but when i drove of my BOV went off (pretty loud) and they didn't do anything!
