    Just a thought, but did your parents mention personal responsibility to you when you were a young fella? Not trying to be mean, but your fate really is up to you.

    Lucky you weren't going 6kph faster!

    I think that strictly speaking the mixup (putting the speeds in the wrong boxes) is no defence - infringment notices are not invalid for want of form. But, the police don't usually like to be seen making such silly mistakes. It's embarrassing. So there is perhaps a chance that if you write a nice polite letter pointing out the error, proffering some explanation , and promising to be a good lad in future, you just might pull it off. They don't have to though, so you need to polish up your grovel.

    deal with it, truth is you were dumb enough to do 80+ in a 50k zone... the judege wont look at it any other way, except for that maybe the officer was new/tired... still doest change the fact that in essence you were 34kmh over the limit.

    Pay the fine and get over it. Maybe when you lost your previous points you should have thought about it instead of being a dumb ass.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Hahaha... mark ya homo... I notice they've torn up the road down the bottom of the hill eh, fuckers didn't put any notice up either, so I nearly lost it last night on the way home from work.

    Was it a mufty car or what? Apparently there's this guy with a green ZXR gets into triple figures coming up that road most times, bad luck you got caught.

    Now pukker up and pay the fine.

    Sigh! Young ones these days! As I said to my son recently when he got a $400 fine for no reg/wof after I'd ben telling him for weeks to get it sorted, "Can I say I told you so?" HE said, "No!" LOL!!! We'd just paid for his ticket to Aus and he was supposed to be paying us back for it! Think t's going to be a bit of a wait as he had to register and warrant his car then pay the fine... He's usually good on such things, but as he lives about 50m from his work, he hadn't bothered getting it done!

    65 in a 50 I'd say fight it, even 70 in a 50... but 84k in a built up residential area? That's a bit much, laddybuck.

    84km/hr... you would be damn extremly luckly if you got away with it....

    I do have a friend who got off a ticket because one letter of his rego on his ticket was wrong and the judge though the was a slack ass idiot.

    But of course it will depend on what kind of judge you get....

    Good luck and tell us how you get on. I could go on about how slack it is for them to be careless with ticket etc but since I know this place is filled with bacon loving bastards I'll keep it to myself.
    I have deep pockets. It's just that it's a deep empty pocket...........

    Don't listen to these buffoons who say 'pay the fine'. Allowing police officers to get away with issuing infringement notices with incorrect details on them sets a poor precedent. The forms are there for a reason, and they're pretty bloody easy for any literate person to fill out. If the ticketing officer was so stupid he couldn't read the text in the boxes that said "speed limit", "alleged speed" and "registration", how can you be sure the myopic twit was reading the display on his speed radar properly?
