Bummer!

Yup, they do post things out. Gives them something to do back at the station while eating those donuts...

Search Scumdogs recent posts, he put up the full scale of taxations quite recently.

That'll be $230 and 35 demerit points

And I thought I was hard done by for getting a "not wearing your seatbelt sir" ticket. I tried to tell him that it was coz I'm always on my bike, he even asked what bike I ride (rode) while writing out the ticket.

77 is a popular number. I got pinged at that just before xmas. As above. $230 and 35 points.

Does anyone know how to check how many demiert points you have?

ask the cop to check next tme you're stopped, or any local (esp rural) station should tell you if you produce your licence.

or, list your tickets on here - we'll tell you

I would list my tickets but I can't remember them all. .. bad bad me. I am always gettting snapped for usually 20k over or something like that. I should invest in a radar detector.

i really do. but then cruising mode kicks in and 130 is not very hard at all. Went for a cruise out in the countryside yesterday and managed to sit on 110 for a couple of hours. then all of a sudden, after coming out of some twisty bits, i found myelf doing 140, and what ya know, police show up. In this case I just got a finger wave from the cop. So pleased he didnt stop. so pleased. This is one of the main reasons I havent brought my ZX10 yet (my dream bike). Just too damn irresponsible.

Is it like Lotto? You just show up at the station with your tickets and they scan them to see if you've won?
