To me, it amply illustrates the bullshit that goes on, and adds proof to the claims that revenue gathering is the function of the HP.

Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

And they wonder why kids just tell the police to get f*cked. Esp. in HB where there is a big youth driving problem.

If I understand correctly, the guy concerned slowed down to 50 within 100mts of the posted sign, is that right?
If so I would have thought that this should have been waived.
What about scumdog and others give their input on this one, how much room do you have to slow down to the new limit?
I also see that the fine was paid, bummer, I would have sent another letter, just to wind then up and have another go. Seems a bit harsh to me anyway.

If the facts are as stated, the cop was out of line. There's a policy (not a law) that aloows a distance (I think it's 200 metres) after the sign before you get pinged. But it sounds like there might be more to the story.
EDIT. Ah. Found it. Here http://www.police.govt.nz/resources/...rcement-guide/
BTW, I love this bit from the same sourceWhen enforcement is taking place in an area where drivers are making the transition from a higher speed to a lower speed area, vehicles should not be targeted within 250 metres from the point where the speed limit changes unless there are exceptional circumstances, such as protecting people operating at road works or to ensure the safety of children near schools;
Not worried about damage to the cop, only the gadget!* staff may use a motor cycle as a power source for a laser speed detector, but are not to pursue speeding motorists themselves when undertaking this activity due to the risk of damage to the laser device.

PS to mr red repper - you know who you are- we are NOT defending our boy, just stating the facts- keep your finger off the button!

fuck the pigs , those cunts should all be ashamed of themselves
The instructions are simple...
Ixion posted clarification of what I said in the original letter (250m). Trouble is, the system won't allow a second round of letters - would just go straight to court. Not worth the hassle & (possible) extra expense in court costs to fight an $80 fine. Hence my bringing attention to HP revenue gathering being a FACT.

They are running more and more like a large faceless business everyday, and the number one purpose for the existence of business is the maximisation of profit for it's shareholders, ie the government. Anyone for an uprising?

It was 65 in a semi-rural zone. Hardly any traffic, most of which was behind me; no pedestrians; no roadworks etc. Cop was a wanker

65 ks, of course it could have been his mates behind him on their scooters, who knows? No Patouroa, it wasn't you - even if you do have all those attributes - you obviously have them well in hand
