Well well, the government, in its wisdom, has decided that 40 kph over the posted limit and - zip - no license for 28 days. - ie 91 in a 50 or 141 in a 100! And speed cameras "anywhere - anytime"
But still - musn't grumble

Well it could of been worse,I see most of the things a lot of folks were worriedOriginally Posted by SPman
about didn,t come to pass.
I,m looking foward to seeing how this drug testing goes.
I use some drugs on a daily basis that iv,e been told by my Doc,will produce a reading.I suppose I will have to carry an excuse card of some type.
No hidden cameras but.
Yeah bugger we may as well all buy 125s.

Used to be you only panic if 50kph over!! Maybe that HUD is getting more and more necessary.
It will be governors next on all vehicles restricting speed to 120kph?
I dont need to worry about such things as speed ...
See here me hearties ... ho ho ho and a bottle of rum.
I ride by "the vibe" ...
I think that might be my next signature thingarmejigg
THe hand's farster than the eye ... keepan eye onda feet .. .
So that’ll mean over 139 & you’ve got to consider if you'll stop or not…
If you stop though ... you gotta consider all those cars you just passed getting ahead of you again ... ... and then what ?Originally Posted by BugSplat

hey... thats not good! how does one practice doing a runner so that when the time comes I know what to and what NOT to do?Originally Posted by BugSplat
While understanding am occasional "need for speed", any moderately sane person should concede that 91kmh in a 50kmh area is a bit excessive?Originally Posted by SPman

in a 50kmhr area, possibly, although how about a clear construction zone with no workers who've taken off for a week and left their signs out? easy to do if coming down from over a 100.Originally Posted by Hitcher
as for 140 on the open road, in many places, thats well excessive. But in other places, I find it quite easy to tick along at 140+ with good visibility of any approaching hazards. Specially if you have a sorted bike/tyres and know the road.
whats the 'see ya sunshine' limit in other countries?
Just one more reason to get onto the track! $80 for open days sure beats a ticket or impounding!
It's a bit rough to apply that rule to bikies, after all, we mostly hurt ourselves, but cage drivers can do far worse. Maybe 65-70 would be a better option?
Hey SP, you aren't going all anti-government are you?
We are the government, and we are good for you.
Didn't you know?
How does this drug testing work? Random or along with breath testing? Blood or urine?
Why, I would never whinge about the gummint!Originally Posted by curious george
I heard something about a "walk along a white line test" on the radio - would they make you do that on the motorway?
“- He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.”
If the LTSA were serious about speed ALL vehicles would be restricted to 100kph and trucks to 90kph, but then we all know that it is driver error that kills not a car/bike/truck/etc.
The drug testing will be a swab sample from your mouth,They are currently useing it in VIC, OZ.It probably won,t get here for a while yet.Originally Posted by curious george
Iv,e checked it out on the net,Hay fever meds, will give a pot reading, so anybody take meds, for that will need a card from their doc,.
I take pain and heart meds,plus hay fever meds, so I,m a bit pee,d off I have to explain myself yet again to some body who,s business it ain,t.
It looks like the cops are now going to have a chase speed limit they can,t go over.That should create some interesting situations in the near future,Aye!!
