i spoke to my lawyer today who i will be speaking to properly at his office. He seems to think they have little chance of winning if i contest it in court. The court fees and solicitors fees don't really bother me, it's more so to prove a point that he should NOT be able to do this.

Take the advice of your solicitor. Police already have prima facie evidence as soon as they present the device. He then presents his expertise and the video and you are toast.

Too many crusaders who try to prove points clog up the court system. It does not worry the police. They are paid to be there and it does not worry the solicitor. He will happily take your thousand dollars to defend a $300 fine. It is the system that suffers.

Proving a point is only costly to one person. The one trying to prove a point.

But if she's on her reds it's an automatic suspension and because it's 37 over the limit it may be a longer suspension...

Mandatory 3 months off the road for any speed for a P1 licence. She then loses it for a further 3 months for demerit points.

But if she's on her reds it's an automatic suspension and because it's 37 over the limit it may be a longer suspension...

Versus taking it to court, maximum penalty imposed, licence CANCELLED (Not just suspended)... I know where I'd be going...

Sorry I haven't been replying.

I was on my green p's and it was an automatic suspension because I'm a p plater.

The rta says it will be a further 6 months due to the demerit points.

Have an appointment with the solicitor tomorrow, let you all know how it goes :-)

Actually courts disqualify you. RTA/Police deal out cacellations and suspensions. Signifigance being a much harsher penalty imposed for driving whilst disqualified as it is a court order.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30掳 silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30掳 silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
