Has anyone had a ticket doing 100km/hr on Learners???

This was a question asked by Streetwise on the last thread I started... (yes, I'm still alive, I've got to stop creating bloody wars on every forum I visit) and I thought some people (including myself) would like to find the answer to it.

I hope Streetwise don't mind me putting the question here but I thought it was a great question. Please let me know if you mind Streetwise and I'll take this post off (I don't know if I can do that but one of the administrators should be able to do it.

Na thats cool, Im interested to see if anyone has,,,,,

the ticket should be for 'breaching conditions of learner licence' a $400 fine/25 demerits. it shouldn't matter if it's for 80k or 100k, but once the demerit and $$ value of a speeding ticket exceeds the breach value, any ticket would probably be for the higher value. a ticket for two like offences would probably be frowned upon by the courts (eg a 115k and breaching conditions) however a ticket for 2 breaches (exceed 70k and carry pillion for example) would be perfectly ok (depending on what is ok to you....)

That dosnt sound right ???, Yes i understand licence conditions but that means you can have an over run of two offences,,,,,,

Hmmm can I take this as a sign that not many at all has been done for doing 100km/hr in a 100km/hr zone on their learner's? (At least this post will put this thread at the front again and help people see it.

89k in a 50k zone with a new cop netted me no L plate and over 70k = $800 (400ea) + $500 speed exceeding fine. 1.3k of tax. Lovely discretion huh?

You can take your L plate on the motorway infront of cops and go in the slow lane with traffic doing 90+ and they won't care, as long as you ain't speeding (as such).

Jebus i had a nice guy then last thursday (i think it was), was doing 79 in a 50 but he only gave me a fine for 65 in a 50 which was only 80 bucks. (didnt have L plate or anything)

Was shitting myself i'd get pinged like that

And the best thing is that someone who is racing their car down a motorway and crashes, endangering the lives of passengers gets a $1500 fine... And other people doing similarly dangerous things get lesser fines. Makes alot of sense.

so it does happen then mmmmmmmmmmmmm im suprised,

**N4CR** · 10th March 2006, 19:19

I had a completely newb cop who had to ring up and ask about what offences I should have got. That's why.

**Streetwise** · 10th March 2006, 20:40

thats gotta suck, bloody coppers.

**Gremlin** · 11th March 2006, 01:03

not me, was even travelling in the fast lane a bit at 110 ish, and I always wore my L plate.

Basically, followed all my restrictions, except the 70 rule, and behaved like a normal person.
