I just watched Road Cops, and I was surprised to find that the dude on the AG100 only got fined $50 for no helmet, whereas he got fined $200 each for no WOF and no rego. Now I wonder what is more dangerous; no helmet or no rego....

Yep, mrs gave me a scowl when I mentioned how it might work out cheaper to not buy a new helmet and just risk the fines :P
And the guy on the trumpy, I know for a fact I couldnt scare up 9g with a few phone calls. Niiiice bike though.

Putting the Law aside for one moment......um, both Fuckwits.
675 Triumph, riding outside license (either on learners or restricted) and $9K worth of fines?
Hope he sells the bike to pay back his equally fuckwit mates. (fuckwits for paying his fines on the spot)

Hated the way they edited the program.
Just tell one story at a time. Stop cutting in and out of each incident throughout the whole programe!

Rego , and Wof hence the largess of the fine. Goes into the general fund ,,, and that pays for the beehive

It's also much easier to spot a rider without a helmet than a bike with expired/no license or W.O.F.
I'd suspect that has a hand in making those fines higher; more deterence to do it in the first place, because it seems easier to "get away with".
Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

Well the $50 fine hasn't increased since 1988 then (don't ask me how I know)

$50 bucks and the ticket from the cops confirming that you are a bit of a retard for not wearing a helmet
god im bored!!
i thought the cop must have given him the wrong fine for the helmet, im sure it was meant to be $150, i know a bicycle fine for no helmet is $55

$150 for no seat-belt (obviously in a car ya funny buggers).

Yep - no lid = $50 now... was $150.... but to appease those claiming it was all revenue collecting, one of the new reduced revenue collecting fines.....i thought the cop must have given him the wrong fine for the helmet, im sure it was meant to be $150, i know a bicycle fine for no helmet is $55
$150 for failing to give way....What about U-Turning coppers?

I sat there watching it as well, even said to wifey i'd love to risk a ride through town just for giggles. There is something liberating and naughty about not wearing one. I rode the length of Nusa Tengara (Bali to Timur via lombok, Flores, Sumbawa, Sumba) without a helmet. Picked up a few fines there but.

They are trying to make it "cool". How many times do they need to show close up shots of the front wheel going around??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone not wearing a helmet is a complete idiot. He was so thick he could have been used to shield the new nuclear facility in Iran. Twat.
