Hey guys, got defected last night after a dinner with family in seven hills/prospect hwy, had some kind of operation last night hwy patrols up and down doing laps, anyways got done for bald tyres, loud exhaust, pod, and 60mm off the ground, says i need to get a "pink slip" and only gave me 24hrs to clear it and today is sunday so basically nothings open. is it possible to call up rta/rms to give me a week to sort stuff out? i need to drive the car tomoro to work so im not sure if i should just risk driving to work then calling them when they open tomorrow?

any help would be great,

Thanks

Tam.

yeh i wouldve thought they would give atleast a week being a saturday and sunday the next day but atleast i didnt get any fines, which is good but only a day its like they are testing me, im hoping i can ask them to extend it to 1 or 2 weeks, coz i just need to change exhaust and get stock shocks , whack on my airbox and stock wheels on with tread and im good. still shits me its a sunday and hardly any place is open today.

After speaking with a few cops the length of time they give will vary from none, to 3 weeks (maximum).

A lot of it comes down to how many idiots have given them lip, and how you speak to them. If you found that after you spoke the copper was a touch more firm/angry in his response you were most likely coming across quite defensive (in a bad way) or aggressive towards them.

Also depends on what you've been booked for in the past.

The popo's were on a cruise. Taken from another thread:

OT, that's a joke, 24 hours to fix?

Seriously

How can they defect cars when they don't even know what bits are what

I had a HWP pull me over and pop my bonnet, he knew exactly what to look for. This is the reason why I didn't go to TopGear. A whole bunch of defects going to one place is bound to be a killing zone for defects.

They didnt seem to be targetting imports at Top Gear, i saw a heap of cars pulled over around the weekend but not one was a modified import.... The cops were mainly directing traffic and were quite polite :)

Of course i was driving a Golf so i was stress free for a change lol

Hey the cops pulled me over yesterday, in my work. and actually were not to bad they said If I be a smart ass they would defect me, so I said I'm not be smart I'm just saying u guys will make me look bad to my boss pulling me up in work and he said shut up then checked my license and let me go. I think it depends what cop you get! And I had a blown out headlight and they let me go. How cool is that?

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.

      Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.

      Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual

      Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.

      There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
