Queen St, Auckland - 30Km/h limit

**lanci** · 28th December 2009, 10:50

A couple of weeks back now, I got pulled over on Queen St after taking off from the lights rather quickly. The officer reckons I got to maybe 70 but I think I hit 62-65 tops, no matter. Anyway the motorcycle officer that pulled me over was a very top chap, he mentioned that I did take off to quick and in the 30K zone could well have lost my license. However he also stated that the marking/signage in the area were extremely poor and that not many people knew or could see the speed limit. So let me off with my new found knowledge and we had a chat about the BMW he was on.

So, all in all a good look for the police in this instance (which is prob 95% of time anyway) and be careful on Queen St, it's a speed trap for motorists now!

What the hell were you thinking.
It's summer and the skirts are short and the tops are tight.
20. max.

Touche, although that said it was 9 o'clock at night...

OK - some mitigation. :-)

Doesn't night time on Queen St mean that the tops are even tighter and the skirts even shorter? Boob tubes and belts no?

**lanci** · 28th December 2009, 10:59

Alas no, it was a Monday night and the only people out where the homeless...

perhaps

but the arses are wider, the gender is suspect and at 20 kmh the smell factor comes into play

You didn't know the limit on Queen Street is 30km/h? It's been that for almost a year now.
