    well I don’t know where you patrol scumdog but can tell you that is exactly what has been going on, in fact police have been pulling drivers out of lines of cars at 100kph and fining them for doing bloody nothing wrong other than breaking a technicality by about 2kph that has been documented.

    and to be quite honest if you think its justified to fine a person because they are driving responsibly even at 105 or 110kph and you cant see that this is nothing but ripping drivers off for doing nothing wrong, then seriously you need to take good hard look at the bullshit your bosses are pulling.

    I’m truly really glad that folks have finally sorted out the revenue collecting bullshit that zero tolerances are all about, and maybe we can go back to some sensible policing of our roads, where a cop will target the idiots who truly deserve attention.

    Stepfather got done for 94 with a trailer (empty), going downhill not long after being overtaken by a Linfox (55t?) truck. You might not be one but there are plenty of asshole cops on the road.

    If the "line of traffic" is exceeding the posted speed limit ... the worst place to be is the last vehicle in that line.(nothing behind you to register on the radar) But as a general rule ... they wont interrupt (pull out a vehicle from) the flow of traffic. Unless it has been seen overtaking (IN/Through) that line of traffic. (With *555 .. it makes it a good chance .. that will happen)

    105 km/hr and 110 km/hr is over the usual "Holiday" lowered tolerance ... and significantly over the zero tolerance this thread is about.

    They just stop the idiots that attract attention ...

    The *555 by those righteous cunts with speed-approximation-meters causing the queue of traffic. Those cunts are the dangerous ones on the road.

    Sounds about right. Pretty much the same as the letters of complaint to Sky when they ditched MotoGP coverage,

    If accurate speedometers were required for WOF .. perhaps less *555 calls would be made.

    You really ought to focus on your inherent conflict of interest. People are getting ticketed for 1-2 km/hr over the limit while police cars break the 100 km/hr limit, and do abrupt and risky U-turns, to catch them.

    And there's the rub. Given that the limit is 100, can you even say that they are driving responsibly regardless of how well they are driving, if they are breaking the law by exceeding the limit?

    When you say "people" im guessing it may well be just North island "people" as ive yet to hear of anyone down here suffering such a fate and will add that down here we think things are as they should be....as for a police car breaking the speed limitoh the humanity.

    The unfortunate thing is that the zero tolerance initiative means there are more people out there taking speed measurement into their own hands and not relying on the speedo in their vehicles.

    It's also (sadly) documented that there are instances where people have been pulled up and cited for travelling at 101km/.h. (The right honourable member of the forum may well not be so myopic.)

    However...

    The law states that the speed limit is 100km/h. There are instances where exceeding this is reasonable, but can anyone tell me why they should be allowed to do so as a matter of course? Why any unauthorised road user should be exempt from the posted speed limit, except in exceptional circumstances?

    That said, the police time would be far better spent on stopping overloaded vehicles travelling at 90km/h on a highway, but obviously overloaded to the stops on the suspension and weaving all over the road. Anyone recognise this, bearing in mind the recent holiday season? Or stopping vehicles sitting in the right hand lane at 96km/h, oblivious to a queue of vehicles behind them. Or a vehicle manœuvring without using mirrors (or any attempt at observation) and causing other road users to swerve or brake violently, with a knock-on effect on other road users. Or... Any number of other obvious instances of bad, illegal or dangerous driving, rather than focusing on Mr or Mrs Average who had inadvertently exceeded the limit by 1% on a long, clear downhill stretch.
