Traffic cops suck cock

**jimbo600** · 23rd July 2004, 12:27

My missus drives the car to the local train stn. Later in the day I go for a run (the fitness kind) to pick the car up,and therefore I am in shorts and a t-shirt. On the way back home some fucked up ex MoT ernie traffic wanker pulls me for speeding 70 in a 50 (fair enough) but gives me a $55 hit for not having a license. The distance from the stn to home would be about 5km's. Now someone please explain to me why the $55 for no license is going to lower the road toll. I also got a lecture about my attitude as I refused to give them my occupation.

Traffic cops are an embarrasment to the rest of the police.

If there are any traffic cops on this forum don't ever come up and speak to me cos I haven't got anything good to say.

They brought in the "you must carry your licence with you when you're driving a vehicle" thing back when they introduced the new photo licences. They gave us 6 months leeway/getting-off-with-a-warning at the time.

Why are you complaining about this now?

I thought the penalty for failing to produce a licence was $500.

Without getting off my butt to find out, I think there was a fine of $50 for no licence, as long as you could prove who you were. If you couldnt do that I thought it was $400 (like standard breach of licence conditions....like not carrying it with you).

I might have stuff mixed up though...

Driver licence offences
All drivers must carry their licence with them when they drive on public roads. If you are found driving without your licence, you can be ticketed and face an infringement fee of $55.

It is important that new drivers develop driving skills in a safe environment - safe for themselves and others. As a result, new drivers face fines and demerit points if they break the conditions of their restricted and learner licences. Drivers breaking the conditions of their learner or restricted licence will face:

a $400 infringement fine
a 25 demerit point penalty.
The less serious driver licence offence penalties have a $1,000 maximum fine, while the more serious have a $4,500 maximum. The most serious licensing offence, of driving while disqualified or contrary to limited licence, carries a maximum fine for a third or subsequent offence of $6,000. The period of imprisonment for this offence is 2 years.

You normaly get given five days or something like that to front up at the local cop shop with your licence.
It was probably your crap attitude that you got done for.

Ha ha ha! That's a fairly broad statement there, buddy!

Guy must've had PMS cos your attitude seems just fine to me

Bugger mate - thats one less 'life' for when riding the bike.

Tickets in your car are a waste - you should have saved it up for when you really need it mate.

Did you offer him the opportunity to suck your cock as your title suggests ? Maybe that is why he got so upset.

Other than that....what attitude ??

BTW - I haven't laughed so much in ages since joining this forum.

The "crap attitude" was his response after I refused to give him my occupation, which under currrent legislation I do not have to give. He asked for my occupation after he already wrote up the ticket. Up until that point I was affable.

So exercising ones legislative right is deemed as having an attitude is it now days?

**750Y** · 23rd July 2004, 13:35

bad attitude? lol, break the law, get a fine AND A LECTURE inclusive of derogatory comments. beautiful... 8-( write a letter maybe you can get off it somehow.

Hell yes.

I raised that in an earlier thread. Knowledgable crims piss off the cops no end by sticking to their rights.

I am. I'll send in the coin for offence No1 the speeding, but I will not pay the other. I'll write a letter explaining the mitigating circumstance.

Also what cheered me up was after this incident I went back home, had a shower, and returned to where the HP twats were, and parked down the road warning everyone approaching of the speed trap. Made me feel much better.

You didn't say that before,Sorry I didn't read much past Traffic cops suck cock.
I have a very good friend who is a traffic cop as you call em,.
He most certainly does not suck cock and would be the first person to give you a hand if you needed it.
If what you say is true,and I don't doubt it, then sure take it up with somebody that can really help but please don't exspect not to get a rise with the statement TC's suck cock.
