Thread: Cost of not wearing a helmet...

  1. #1

    Cost of not wearing a helmet...

    I'm sure this post will generate plenty of lectures from various people, directed at various people, about various things over which they really have no control in the end. Now that I've said that I'll get to the point.

    How much does someone get taxed for not wearing a helmet when it comes to a blue/white infringement notice handed out by the filth at the side of the road?

    I'm guessing it's not the same amount as a cyclist, which is $50 or $55 I believe...???

    Subject to correction as it may be out of date, but I thought it was $150. The problem is that it doesnt necessarily become an "Infringement Notice", and may be subject to a Court appearance (Traffic Offence Notice) if the blue people decide (based on circumstances)..

    Needless to say, do you really want to go there?
    It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off.
    As I ran out the door, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off.
    Now I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.

    And the point of this discussion is?
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    As for the fine, the ultimate price is alot closer than you think.

    One ditch away . . .

    One mistake . . .

    One corner . . .


    How much are you willing to pay?
    It is what it is

    Never said it was going to happen, or be me if it did...

    I am interested to know what the fine would be, definately...

    But the main point of the post was to incite such reactions as above...

    There is no filth at the side of the road - wanker.They're trying to keep dipshits like you alive by saving you from yourselves.

    There you are, you expected - you got it.

    whether you wear a helmet or not. I don't know you. I won't be going to your funeral.

    Go ahead. The penalty for being spotted by the Police is $150.

    The penalty for fucking up is death.

    Your choice.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

[though two were bikers]

    or maybe not, maybe just grinding your face off in the ditch at 100k+, and living with the scars and the brain damage for the rest of your life, (you know who you are)

    Then there's that other possibitlity that every ride encountered without a helmet is trouble free and without repercussion.

    The world is full of possible outcomes, some more likely than others statistics wise.
