Sorry but I'm on the side of the police there. If your vision is marked as being bad enough to require glasses, then not wearing them is silly and not safe!

Agree, I have that condition as well, and I refuse to drive unless I'm wearing my glasses/contacts (because I like to see what's going on far ahead of me instead of 2m).

It's a bit harsh mate, but rules are rules.

When you're on your L's, they can't really book you for anything hence why you could get away with a lot of stuff.

Ive been pulled over by a large woman with a shaved head and no bra, at least it didnt look like she was wearing one. There was no way any politeness or honesty was going to get me out of this one, I was lucky I wasn't eaten. Mind you, she was trying to book me for going through an orange light, to which I contested in court and won.

I wonder if the 'stupid cop stuff' thread is still floating around the wasteland. All sorts of fun stuff in there.

got pulled over last friday, cops spotted me from around a bend leaving the school i work at, raced up a back alley that leads to the same main road i was headed too, waited in the street parallel to me to see where i put my blinkers, then pounced (i was aware of all of this at the time and was just waiting for it), got pulled over, guy comes up to the car with his partner on the other side, have a quick look at the front of the car and says "hey mate, sorry we thought you didn't have a number plate at the front but its obviously their" (my numberplate is at the bottom angled (defect btw) ... he done the regular breath test thing and then best of all i didn't have my licence on me he asked if id had any dramas with the popo, i said no, he said he would give me the benefit of the doubt... he asked why i was hanging around outside the school and i told him i worked their and that was that, he left with a friendly smile and a wave...

now i hate to be a ball breaker but during all of this :

my car exaust was going hard out gurgling, car was too low, he sore the frontmount at the front, they herd the bov when i was driving, they checked out the leather interior and my subway handles on the hand rails, they could see all my pilar and dash gauges, shiftlight, safc, boost controller, e-brake drift button, turbotimer, numberplate off angle not to mention i looked like a drug dealer with my shaved head, earings and dolce sunnies on :rofl2:

don't know how some of you guys must be communicating to these guys (and don't get me wrong i know i got a good guy and their are some real power trippers out their) but maybe a attitute change is needed by some people?

Off-topic Joel, but what's your job at the school? You got off pretty well I'll say :rofl2:

Got RBT'ed last Friday night in 2 different locations. Was tested with no questions asked, but they were just staring like hawks as I took off lol

hey owens, yea definitely got off easy but i think they understood i wasn't a hoon and i think their reasoning for pulling me over was fairly valid :rofl2:

im a Network Admin at the school :rofl2: just some solid industry placement while i finish off uni :laugh:

Ha, I'm also a network admin at a highschool down here in Wollongong :P

What school do you work at down here?

High School I used to go to, my mate and I used to be the network admin team! Network went to shit when we left and they had to employ someone... LOL

Does your school ever buy IT stuff locally? I know the school I was at (About 5/6 years ago now) did.

haha, yeah not many schools can survive without someone there constantly and has knowledge of maintaining a network. I work at Albion Park high.

We buy alot of IT stuff through DET contracts and online websites like Megabuy because they have a wider selection and pretty cheap too.

Bought stuff locally a few times in the past but found them to be slow/expensive/limited to specific things we need.

    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
