    Anyone else got a ticket lately?

    Got caught this morning, 113kph on the way from Welly to Petone. Cop had his blinders on, did his job and, sent me on my way.

    I realise these guys probably don't care and are just doing their jobs, but as my only interaction with the Police for the last 5 years, they need to work on their interpersonal skills.

    I felt like a number. Not a speeding, dangerous lunactic like I'm made out to be by their anti-speed PR campaign.

    105 on a dry road with awesome viz.

    In case anyone missed it, we're writing tickets for any speed over the limit by more than 4. There is no tolerance on the tolerance.

    Guess thats the reason this thread started. We do what we do. People have every right to disagree but it wont change what we do.

    Moving on now. Couple of hours where hundreds of cars and trucks went past. Only 4 bikes and 1 was the popo one.

    2 hours of death ray sticking out like a sticky outy thing, so deterrent message delivered to hundreds. Just the one speeding ticket, $30, what a revenue collecting bastard I am.

    Off to an alleged donut sale. .....

    Well, it take a small amount of time for eyes to refocus from gazing at the speedo when doing the road check every now and then, so the viz probably isn't going to be that awesome for the rest of his trip. Thanks for making the road safer

    Um........did we ever say that the policy doesnt apply to nice people?

    It's been fairly well publicised. Nil ambush there.

    I was sticking out like a beacon, likely to be why I got so few speeds. Like, one. By deduction I got somone who wasn't paying attention.

    So if it makes you feel better., think of thr ticket as one for someone not paying attention.

    Nothing so saucy. Told me there was nothing coming so she just slowed down and went.

    There actially was nothing coming, but its a stop sign, not a give way.

    There's no speed tolerance through stop signs, especially ones in areas where nasty things have happened at stop signs.

    I always think of that old retort when people tell me they slowed down........If I pulled you out of your car and started beating you with a baton, would you want me to stop or just slow down?

    Tee hee.

    come on you must have seen someone on a cellphone at some time that you could have pinged - I drove 5 kms yesterday and spotted 5 people using cellphones in the cars - one had a ipad on the middle of her steering wheel while she was driving in heavy traffic
