I was at my sisters uni graduation and I parked on Queen st in Auckland CBD... If you wait a couple of weeks until my stuff gets down here I will scan both tickets...

I'm not a bullshiter THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Maybe Spudchucker can back me up on parking laws n' such???

Bugger, must remember that, i always park on the footpath when in town.

the worst fine i got was 62 in a 50, the bugger was sitting at the bottom of the hill about 300m from my house. i cost me 20 points when i already had 90.

Nary a speeding ticket, a bogus ticket a few years ago for storing an unused car outside my place with no rego or wof and today my first ever parking ticket, still bogus in my view 'cause there was still room for two cars in the 1 hour space, so who am I depriving? Nill motorcycle parking in town and all my regular spots overrun by construction zones , parking warden can be the yellow guy

It's all a bit hard now, except when there are obvious 'giveaways' like those steel wheels with no hubcaps, extra aerial, etc.

Damn but you must be some ace!! How do you do it? Even when I slowed down to 125kph I still couldn't pick the no hubcaps and extra aerial until I was alongside 'em, guess I'll have to try harder eh?

drove without a licence when I was 14.... sentenced to get my licence when I turned 15....

**ZorsT** · 23rd November 2004, 07:15

Never had a ticket yet.... But i've only been driving for 5 months.

Those mufty cars are getting harder and harder to spot, I've seen some with only one aerial, but it wasn't standard, the only reason I saw it, slightly thicker. the little boxes that used to be behind the back seat headrest have dissapeared, makes me nervous

Oh yea, and I got a ticket 3 days ago for "accelarating through a roundabout" toatl of $200, anyone know what thats about???

Never heard of that one before. Can you post the exact words that the cop wrote on the ticket?

Can't say I've ever given anyone a parking ticket, it would have to be a very slow night. But yes, you can get tickets for such outrageous behaviour. I don't know how you can live with yourself, you parking thief.

Spud/Scum/Bykey, etc: Question for you guys.
The first (and only) time ive ever been pulled over, was in my car not too long ago (have been driving for about 8 years or so). I didnt get a ticket, but he basically pulled me over because I accelerated on a motorway onramp to 100km/h, then had to slow down because the cockboat in front of me wanted to join the motorway at 65km/h (this was about 11pm).

He said I came screaming down the onramp then had to slam on my brakes to avoid the car (wow, what a precise evaluation considering he would have been 150m away). Whats the deal here? I get up to motorway speed and have to slow down because some dork wants to join the motorway at least 30km/h slower than the motorway traffic, yet I get pulled over??? (fyi, that was sarcasm earlier, I didnt have to slam my brakes on, but I did have to slow down, this was right at the end of the onramp).

Fuck I hate people who dont know how to use onramps and offramps.
