Is there a time frame that police have to mail you your ticket?

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 ...

Cost me $400 for no licence.

**Gareth123** · 19th June 2011, 18:34

$400?

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.

Really? That seems like a long time. Wish I could take 6 months to do my paper work.

Don't we all.

Government departments you know, not all that quick.

I have my test booked for the first Monday of July. Then I'll be all legal.

Plus I'll start riding like a nana.

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
