:spanking: oops, just gotta call from the bride at work,she got stopped for speeding to work this morning.$120, nothing new in that,happens every day,you say.True true and I love her to bits but this woman drives like a nun guys, you've probably been stuck behind her doing 75 on the highway.Irritates the nipples off me and any one else in the queue behind.
Come on I say to her,just try third gear dear, I think the engines gonna blow,if you don't like it we can go back to second, yes second is a good gear, I don't know why they put so many gears in a gear box'it does seem a waste yes,then after 15 years of not even tickling a speed limit she turns into a speed crazed hoon overnight.:2thumbsup that's my girl.
Of course you know it'll be my fault,dunno how but she'll manage some spurious link to my blamedom. :argue: :yes:

Of course it will be your fault, as you are a bad influence.
As a punishment, she now gets to choose the colour of your new (PINK) bike.

If she does indeed drive like you describe I can't help but feel a bit of schadenfreude... Too funny when drivers that NEVER speed (and perhaps even condemn those who do) gets a ticket. Only thing better is if they get done for going too slow.
Got one of those $120 + 20 DM pts tickets just over a week ago. Couldn't really get upset about it, actually I was happy that he only got me doing 18 km/h above the limit since I'd been sitting in the 20-30 km/h above all the day before then. Bloody good effort on the cops side as well to get me - the radar detector usually gives ample warning - he managed to ping me just as I came up over a hill crest and he was going down a hill perhaps 300 meters further down the road... Bugger... oh well.
He left me with the words: "Slow down and have a safe trip." I was tempted to say: "Are you offering me a tui - but don't worry I always drive safe..."

Easy... Usually they will ping you going in the opposite direction.
Radar detector works wonders - however, if you're out on the open road with no traffic in front of you and he doesn't turn his radar on until he pings YOU, then you won't get much warning.
In my case I probably managed to loose about 5 km/h before he got his measurement. I was very impressed with how quickly he reacted as I came up over the hill crest. The radar detector went nuts just as I saw the police car and I went straight on the brakes - but he got his reading...

eeerrr, not so sir! Oestregen is the nurturing, caring,baby-making hormone...unlikely to make us speed, trust me!
You'd be thinking of Testosterone, which indeed affects us hoonettes on a regular basis, however never as deeply as you fellas! :nya:

Ack chew ally, estrogen is a far more psychoactive hormone than testosterone.
High testosterone levels mostly have mood-altering effects because both men and women maintain their balance between T and E via the aromatase enzyme; high T results in high E, and therefore psychological disturbance, unless one is taking an estrogen receptor agonist like clomiphene citrate or an aromatase blocker like anastrozole.
Which is why anabolic steroid users take female fertility drugs and breast cancer medication to offset the steroids' side effects!
:laugh:
Testosterone is, however, a very good thing for women in small doses.

Especially if assimilated orally, one assumes...:innocent:
Testosterone is still the "aggressive" hormone, regardless of how you explain it.

Hahahaha, nice one! Mrs B got a speed camera fine through the post and I really took the mickey about her lack of self-control as she's always harping on about me. However, when she looked at the date, it coincided with a day I borrowed her car. Never been allowed to forget that one:laugh:

Nope; testosterone breaks down in the liver unless you alkylate the T molecule and turn a particular carbon atom into a methyl or ethyl group, making it mildly hepatotoxic (in the order of paracetamol).
Testosterone is therefore usually administered as an ester via intramuscular injection.

If she's so used to driving slowly, then it could be argued that her travelling at <20km over the speed limit is far more dangerous than (for example) Simon Crafar travelling at <40km over the speed limit. Are you confident in her abilities?

That's... ironic. Or summat.
Karen's had only two speeding tickets. The first was a speed camera ticket back in about 1998, when she had to travel from Tauranga to D'Auckland for work. She was trundling along the Southern Motorway, at the same speed as the other cars, and got pinged. A few weeks after that ticket turned up in the mail, addressed to me (as registered owner).
"Ha ha! Now it's your turn!"
"Um... dear: look at the time. It's the time you travel to work, and on the route you take."
"Oh."
But I've allowed her to forget it, and she's been (mostly) kind about my last three tickets, especially the first of them, when she was on the back of the FahrtSturm when we were pulled up.

Karen's had only tow speeding tickets.
Is that when you forget you have a trailer on the back and get pinged for driving at the same speed as the other traffic?

Wise man Ian. Discretion is something we all have to learn if we want a shag sometime within the next year :innocent: Our wives never seem to be troubled by dredging up the past though.
Mr Random... you're right on the money there. A few years back, I got pinged for doing 105 km/hr towing a trailer on SH1 near Marton. This was when towing was restricted to 80 clicks. I have absolutely no objection to being pinged - guilty as charged. However, I was pretty bloody disappointed when after the booking, he told me to stick to 100 and I'd be fine! The other thing which was disappointing was that he was driving an unmarked Nissan 200SX Turbo and I'd watched him closing in my mirror. He must have been doing well over 160 by the rate he was closing. I just thought he was a boy racer:shutup:

Oh dear.
Another example of when the act of issuing a ticket (supposedly for enforcing road safety) is less safe than the 'crime'.

Well what did I say..........My fookin fault, she gave me a kiss goodbye and even though I didn't ask for one,this peck on the cheek forced her to be late and therefore speed and I should pay the fine.:lol:
