Anyone experienced this before?

Got a fine while on my NSW licence in VIC, had up to 15/8/2010 to pay the fine.

Switched to VIC licence on the 6/8/2010 succesfully

Is this attached to my NSW licence, so should I even bother paying?

if you don't they will chase you

points dont carry over though unless it's changed recently.

I am pretty sure the points carry over when I got pulled over last year in nsw on a qld liscense.

Do you think the bureacracy will just forget you if you forget them? gutsy move !

My mate moved from QLD to VIC... and got a fine down there on qld plates also.. changed over to VIC plates before the fine came.. he didnt end up paying.. cause the fine came up here and he wasnt living here anymore.. kept sending letters adding on cost and threat of action.. dunno if they ended up finding him (in which he would claim not to know being at a different address) but i dunno if that will work..

I'd pay the fine as it's not worth hassle, etc whn they eventually trace it down.. All the higher fines, etc will stay in place.. In QLD they are suspending people's licence from unpaid fines 10+ years ago LOL.. you broke the law, just pay the fine..

Ignorance of the law is no excuse.

Just imagine if you were fined under sec 49 sub section 3 of the Trade practises Act and claimed you didnt know about it , expecting to get off. Good luck on that one.

I've plenty of mates in defence, they've rarely paid a fine and had the points added, it happens sometimes for whatever reason but its rare and they purposfully have licences in different states etc.

Even though you incurred the fine on your NSW licence whilst in VIC, and now you have a VIC licence, if you don't pay it you will be chased and possibly have your VIC licence placed under a fines suspension. So in other words, don't be a tool and pay it :)

      Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.

      Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.

      Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
