isnt it strange how if they see a 'New Holden' they probably wont pull him over, but if a old R32 doing the correct thing on the road is spotted, theres no second thoughts about pulling him over, the lights just go on. one of my relatives was doing a course in law were he became a cop for about 1 year and he quit it, the reason was; "Cops are so corrupted these days, they think that just because they try to enforce the law they think they can break it, theres always at least 1 out of 10 good cops, but its getting worse every year"

Burns just remember to keep it cool and dont rush ahead, you'll win this.

hey if you want to get off the fine you would be more likely to do so if you can say you did it because it was safer to do so than remain completely in your lane.

Say what you first brought up, thought there was an accident and slowed down and moved away from the roadside edge to take a more safe route. Then you can use the picture of the cop as it too looks like he has moved away from road edge over the centre of the lane because he's seen your father there and its the safest route because a pedestrian might step out in front.

Try and take the 'its more safer route' rather than try and dodge the issue up. Of course you wont have much chance of convincing them that you were being 'safer' if say you have a total of 11 points, in that case I would just let it slide.

hogans ghost!!! hahaha use the alf stewart pic!!! thats so piss funny, hahaha. if the world was a perfect place, that alf stewart pic would stand up in court. get alf to come in and be the eye witness....ya flamin mongrels

as far as i know self preservation is a valid defence to any road-related offence (protecting yourself)

if you state the the road was unsafe, and that you moved across the line to protect yourself etc, and then use the evidence of a police car doing the same. (by agreeing with you that he was doing it for a "saftey" reason also gives the officer an easier way out of an embarrasing situation)

even then the court may not accept the digital photos as evidence.

also im pretty sure u can't "spring" the photos on the cops in court while they are testifying as others have previously stated

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
