i had only 2 more weeks and this would of been all sweet, i cant believe it

I now have to attend a court summons soon, i have a FEW questiosn i would hope can be answered

1. Does anyone know what Im lookin at? How long suspension? and how big fine?

2. is there anyway to appeal or get out of this? I heard something about a "section 10" ???

3. Will i be able to drive my Skyline after i get my license back, lets say if its a 12 month ban? Im a red P plater

Im just hopin i can drive it, i only had it for 2 months b4 losin my license in march, then now this, i h8 it

thanks

Well to be not to play the blame game but this is the reason why this law is put in place to stop offenders from driving.

Just pay the fine or something and take public transport :)

What were you thinking when you took your friend home. Tsk Tsk..

"Self inflicted" Yes I agree..

i reckoned ur friend should chip in to the fine you're going to copped because if its wasnt for him u wont be in this mess aye? either way its comes to common courtesy or just being ur friend to help you out in some way. my 2 cents.

Section 10 of the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act 1999 gives the magistrate an opportunity to dismiss a charge even though you've been found guilty. It would be also possible to be placed on a good behaviour bond through this as well. They would take into account factors such as your circumstances, character, etc.

But seeing as you were already suspended and reoffended I don't think you'd be able to use this.

Habib, you are EXACTLY the type of P-plater this law is targetting.

Although it sounds like you couldn't give a toss about licence suspensions, so why you would care about a power restriction, I have no idea.

a section 10 with good behaviour bond is not applicable unless you are on your full license, so forget about that..

and i am quite sure you will get hammered in court, especially with all the bad publicity lately, if i were you i would put my car up for sale right now, you will probably have to wait a 3 years before being able to drive one again! (until u get your full license)

looks like you will not be able to drive it...doesn't the new law say that if you already have your p's but have your license suspended then when you get them back after the date the new law comes in, then you cant drive performance cars...think that what i read in the paper...

simple fact is that you shouldn't have been driving, and your friend should realise that you haven;t got a licesne so shouldn't have got you to drive...if he can afford to pay part of the fine then he can afford to pay for a taxi...

thats bs that means i cant drive my skyline till im 25 or so
No, it's not BS. You broke the law, now you have to suffer the consequences.

You obviously don't take the law seriously considering you lost your license 3 months after you got it and then had the arrogance to defy your driving disqualification and drive again without your license. I'm sorry mate, but seriously, what were you thinking?

As said above, the law is designed to target people like yourself. I know the penalty may seem harsh, but perhaps next time you'll think before you deciding to break the rules.

Sorry to say dude, but you're going to get raped in court. Expect ~$1500 fine and 12 month CANCELLATION of licence.

I'm currently suspended/cancelled for 3 months - it's not worth the risk driving dude, don't have your licence? Don't go hopping in the car (unless you ain't driving anywhere but up/down your driveway :cheers:) and definitely do NOT go dropping mates off...

What you've done now is considered a "major offence" and if you do another TWO of those in the next 5 years, expect worse and worse penalties... ranging from heavy fines and further suspensions/cancellation of licence, and 3 year MINIMUM bans!

Sell your Skyline, use some of the money for a GOOD lawyer - to try to get the penalty down to a minimum... then when you get your licence back in a year or so - buy some N/A car that's going to keep you out of trouble... non turbo skyline maybe...

Good luck man, you're going to need it!

    • My take on gg2 48mm, 54mm, 58mm, and 62mm compressor map for same size compressor vs gg1 : All gg2 only outflow gg1 above 20 psi. As all g gen 2 surge line at lower left of comp map move to the right, all gg2 sacrifice spool vs same size gg1, surge line move to the right worst for 54mm gg2. So for same size compressor if you want best response, use gg1, if you want max hp at >20psi use gg2 but you will be laggier vs same size gg1. Max compressor efficiency drops to max 75% on all gg2 vs max 76%-80% of same size gg1. Iirc lower efficiency means hotter iat less dense air so lower hp at same operating point of comp map. Also curious why gg2 is mapped to lower max rpm vs same size gg1 (only 48mm size both gg1 gg2 mapped to same rpm) : 54mm gg1 165,000 rpm  vs  gg2 160,000 rpm. 58mm gg1 150,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000rpm. 62mm gg1 145,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000 rpm. If gg2 can safely spin to gg1 rpm then they can flow a bit more than as mapped. Good thing that all gg 2 interchange compressor and turbine housings with same size gg 1. So gg1 owners can buy gg2 chra only if planning to boost >20psi.
    • My stuff is all with Shannon's, granted, I don't really have imports I'm driving on the road, however, I've had multiple cars at the same time with them. Presently we have the Landcruiser on laid up cover, Sarah's Kluger on full cover, and the house insured. About 18 months ago Sarah wrote her Subaru Liberty GTB off, insured with Shannon's, and the payout, and buy back of the wreck was super quick. In 2020 we had the VF Commodore totalled in a major hailstorm. Storm was on the Saturday, I called on the Sunday and lodged it, vehicle was towed on Tuesday night, assessment team called on Wednesday to say it was a total loss and get payout details, money was in the bank on Thursday morning. Have had a few other claims both at fault, and not at fault, over the years, and never had an issue with them.   Funnily enough, they're also the cheapest insurer I find for things like Sarah's Kluger.   I will say I'm less impressed dealing with them lately around "the experience", as a lot of their staff that you deal with aren't car enthusiasts. Shannon's has a much more main stream feel ever since they decided to become "big corporate", laid a heap of staff off, and then hired a bunch of non enthusiasts. At the same time they've been making a push to be less "call us and we'll personally have someone who cares help" to "hey, this computer can do stuff for you" and are trying to get more square pegs to fit round holes. (That's just the vibe I get from them). Again, have had no issues with claims with them, but get a bit of a "less personal" feel from them.
    • A thing I wasn’t happy with with enthusiast was during the initial phone call they told me they’d insure it for 130k but needed photos.   I then sent them photos and they told me $80k as there were other cars either similar modifications available for around that price, I told them to send me the links to said cars so that I can buy them. i then sent the modification list with prices of the parts (no labor) and the price then came to 115k, which is still shy of the 130 that was agreed in the initial phone call 
    • Ask me a bit later this week before payday
    • I agree that delayed payment probably isn't the most suitable solution. It seems a solid complete transaction would be best. As I wouldn't be using this sale as a line of credit that would typically earn interest, we can probably arrange a much cleaner single transaction deal. I can do $92.52 today. Would you prefer EFT, or Cash on Pickup?  😛
