A friend of mine got pulled up a few weeks back and due to the dangerous and busy spot of road he was in the officer said he'd mail it to him.

It'll be 2 weeks tomorrow.

My friend was just wondering so I thought I'd ask for him.:innocent:

Several Donut shops have closed down lately......
Maybe all the cops really have gone on holidays?

So I'd just quote my license number at them? Would I have to ring the police station in that area? Or would any station do?

I think he just wants to know how much its gonna cost him. He's a bit broke at the moment.

If you were a true friend ... you'd pay it for him ...

And in answer to your question ... no.

He said something about speeding and license conditions.
Might have been 11km/h over and on a bike slightly larger than a 250.

10 km's over is from memory $120 fine ... exceeding licence conditions ... $400 ... may be more ...

Clean slate for the last 8 years. Sat on 80 demerits for 2 years back when i was younger. I drive pretty slow now because of that. The same can't be said for my riding however.

The demerits will be gone soon enough. 2 years isn't long.

Yep same here, one ticket every 5 years or so, now 70 points in 6 months.

(going on someone else's experience) ive been told that it normally takes 3 weeks for a ticket to come in the post, so you've probably got about a week left unless its been lost or they've forgotten to post one out
