Do the cops have to give you a ticket on the spot?

**BigG** · 18th November 2007, 16:59

Just bin snapped at 134K's cop took all me details said that I would get the ticket in the mail as it was to hot for him to write the ticket out and didn't want me to cook in the sun. How legal is that, I thought they have to write you a ticket and give it to you for an instant fine. Any one got any clues.

Sounds to me like he was doing the both of you a favour mate! Standing around fully geared up, in the sun is not very pleasant. Yep, ticket in the mail soon..........start saving!

134kmh should be well up shit creek. Over the posted limit by 30kmh is loss of license territory.

**homer** · 18th November 2007, 21:05

I was in the cage 116kph

No it is not. 40 kph over a permanent speed limit, or 50kph over a temporary speed limit will attract an automatic 28 day licence suspension. More than 50kph over a permanent limit will usually result in a speed dangerous charge , which will usually mean a disqualification.

Over the posted limit by 30kph is only fine and demerits.

That would have been useful to inject into the conversation I had with a pleasant lady HP officer last week.
