I Need Help!

This whole thread seems like a big pisstake. If it is serious then +1 to everyone who said wake up and ride to work. Get fit and stay out of trouble/jail.

SA must be more lenient than here because if you drive while disqualified the cops will drag you out of the car and throw you in the paddy wagon for a night in Jail until you're seen by the magistrate. They won't even lock the car on the side of the road for you.

Think of the risk reward ratio man: risk - crash, injury, lifelong debts, permanent black mark on record, pulled over for anything and jail, loss of job. Reward: drive to work listening to bad FM radio to keep working in a job for $200/day and paying off the house.

Push bike: no risk of any of the above, maybe risk a cold from riding in winter.

And shift work is bollocks for no options. Where do you live? There's bus, taxi, train, tram, begged rides, family, push bike scooter, the list goes on. You've already said the missus will give you alift some days, how about putting together some options for the others. You drive disqualified you may not keep the missus and you get caught you won't keep the job.

^^ spot on Bud she might come and visit onec but she will get pretty sick of other prisoners eying her up and down

[nisskid]

hmmm i thought it would be pretty strict down here...

yeh i got f**ked over big time....driving down port wakefield road, cop pulled me over sayin i was doin 107 in a 60.

port wakefield isnt even a 60km speed limit...so god knows why i got pulled over...but yeh...

so even for a first offence its jail time?

wasnt when they were doing the road works on there?

[nisskid]

btw, motorised bike is the way to go, completely legal without a license, and will get u a long faster and easier than a pushy.

Damn thats some bad luck my friend, mayb the cop just hated the jap imports???

being pinged doing 107 in a 60 is not 'bad luck'.

[NFSR33]

As stated elsewhere in this fred, get a pushbike, leave heaps early, deal with it and move on. And no, I dont care that you live 30 minutes drive from work, thats still push bike-able.

on that note, pretty sure as a P-plater it is a breach of P's to go over 100kmh by any amount, not that I care or know if who ever posted that initially is a P plater.

hate repeating myself but i wasnt speeding...i was going 70..

cop obviously didnt re-calibrate his gun, said i was doing 107, this was while in heavy traffic

did my topic say "help i need sympathy" nope......

thanks for the mature and reasonable responses on here though everyone...

its evident id be a dick to drive unlicensed..

im cancelling the house im building anyways and cuttin my shifts down..

just annoying that u drive sensibly, get f**ked over, and have to sacrifice things in order to obey the consequences of the law.

welcome to the sa police

public transport isnt possible....i work 4pm til 1230am

25minute walk to nearest bus stop, 20min bus ride to train station, 25min train ride, 30min walk to work...thats gettin to work..

getting home, theres no trains after 10 30 down my way. and if anyone here knows what the northern suburbs are like u dont want to be goin through there at 230 in the morning...haha

p.s missus wont leave, shes driving the skyline

[NFSR33]

being pinged doing 107 in a 60 is not 'bad luck'.

having to change a tire in the rain is bad luck

driving 70 in a 70zone but gettin told ur doin 107 in a 60 is just f**kin retarded

[NFSR33]

wasnt when they were doing the road works on there?

nah this was further down...about a kilometre back from the main north rd/ pt wakefield intersection

70km signs everywhere.

[NFSR33]

thanks for the responses everyone..hopefully my replies havnt come across as being rude..

ive tried to keep my frustration in.

im not a hoon driver or anything like that, my last car was a twin turbo supra and i sold it and bought a non turbo auto r33..

so i can be more careful on the road, but to lose your license while driving sensibly and obeying the road rules

is pretty f**kin annoying.

me and my missus would be movin into our house on the lake in 3months but to have to rearrange our lives to compensate my license loss means weve lost the house..

but, ive put a for sale sign on the car, havin it around would tempt me too much to drive so its gotta go

11more months to go of headaches, public transport, taxis, buses, and days off work to go

hopefully in 11months the p platers in the sociey who drive like dickheads wouldve stopped, leaving there to be no reason for the cops to follow us, pull us over, and catagorise us as "all hoon drivers"

see ya on the road

she aint happy she wont get to ride in the skyline...

but coz im not working as much now....

shes happy that theres more time to ride me hahahahah kiddin

i lay odds you're NOT kidding!

That sucks mate, Im a P plater and its seriously annoying me how there seems to be a fair few accidents going on involving us. Just read the whole story myself, cant believe the hard luck you've had, but it could be a chance to come back better once its all over.

yeh ive had my car for a year, i dont race ppl, dont drift, nothing at all..but i get pulled over twice a week

because i had a p plate up therefore i was stereotyped to have done something wreckless..

but ur right, something goods gotta come out of it.....x lotto would be nice haha

[scandyflick]

why not just get one of them electric scooters? there flagrantly gay but do around the 40ish kmph and you could do the same shifts etc just leave 30 mins earlier for work?

A friend of mine lost his licence for 12mths months for speeding,

He took his slightly younger brothers birth cert to transport SA and said 'lost my wallet' got a photo taken and licence send out a week later,

Bought an inconspicuous cheap litttle white 90's model corolla,

100% Stuck to the speed limit and only flashed the licence at bretho's etc.

Drove for the whole year no worries at all.

fk public transport!
