Stung by quota-filling bitch on my noob plate

I know exactly how you feel. I got pinged for 100km/h too. And the truth remains, you DID exceed the speed limit by 30km/h, and as the saying goes, if you do the crime, you pay the fine.

The day before my big roadtrip ever was when I got the ticket, and that wasn't going to slow me down. Auckland to Rotorua, 79.9km/h, scariest two days of my life. Still alive, after many changes of underwear.

I've got just under a month until I can get my restricted, and on that day, that L plate will be TOAST! (L plate burning ceremony and drinks!

)

You just didn't bother reading what had been written earlier in the thread or...?

As for all the advice about claiming that the L-plate fell off. If you can't make an L-plate stick to your bike in a manner so that it doesn't fall off, I don't think you would rate high on the kiwi-ingenuity scale!
Honestly, if I was a cop and someone tried to pull that kind of bullshit I'd throw the book at them as well.
