Two of my mates have been done for racing a Green commo ute thats been done up and looks like a nice modified ute, the ute comes up beside them, egg's them on then whoever races them gets pulled over when the ute's starts sounding the sirens and the blue and red lights start flasshing, both my mates lost there licences over racing that ute. I cant believe that the police are going so low as to encourage people to race them by acting like a hoon themselfs in a modified car, let alone the dangers of encouraging people to race at excessive speeds which could end up killing someone, both my friends said if the ute wasn't trying to egg them on they wouldn't have tried to race them. Fair enough they raced they got caught but it's how they got caught that's absolutly ***ced. It pisses me off to think they can get away with such bullshit. And they both got caught on a 60 zone on a very busy raod up here (infront of the caltex servo in marochydore if anyone knows the area ).

It seems the police justify breaking the laws they're enforcing by catching so called hoons doing the exact same thing as the police use as a tatic to catch them. Another friend lost 3 points and got a 150$ speeding fine when an unmarked car pulled us over in my skyline when he was driving, the conversation went something like this...

Cop: how are you tonight sir, have you been drinking blah blah.. ( had to do an rbt and licence check) Can you explain why you where doing 84 in a 60 zone

My mate: I was doing 60k's not 84, the same as every other car around us

Cop: Well i was following you for around 500m and saw you reach speed in the region of 84kmph..

My mate: I was doing 60, maybe 65 at the very most.. the same as every other car on the road.. can you show me the radar gun showing me doing what speed you said i was please

Cop: I dont have to mate, I was following you for a good 500m and you speeds reached up to 84kmph, I sae this on my car's speedo, I get the cars speedo checked regulaly and thats what speed you where doing.

Now that to me is ***cing bullshit, and to make things even wierder the cap said " I'll drop your speed down to 76 so you dont lose all your points and your fine will be $150 instead of $250 "... By the way it was a single cop in an unmarked car vs 4 people in my skyline.

Fortunatly I have never been pulled over in my life for anything at all, not even an rbt, thankfully I haven't because if cops are like this to people in imports that i'll lose my licence...

wow. i just did some drawings for a court case very similar to this to prove that the drawing prepared by the police was inacurate. the difference is he hit a drunk and killed him. obviously more to the story but he looks innocent from here. poor bugger has done the jail time already too. hope it works out for him.

In QLD don't do over 40klms of the speed limits that gets your Lic canned straight away.

In all these stories everyone is doing at least 30klms over the speed limit maybe if people were going a little slower then it would have been different.

Late a night I usually do 20klms below the speed limit, not because of cops, but for the reason that no one is going to be up your arse for it, also can have some fun behind the wheel relax a little etc.

I've done 50klms in roclea and seen a cop car in the side street waiting for someone to come along.

Then again I have also done 190-200klms all the way through the main drag through from sunshine coast to inter brisbane on that road that goes through chremside.

Also have seen a cop car waiting there also I was doing 20klms below the speed limit at that time though.
