Hazzard County

[NDORFN]

Far out, sounds like you guys have all the luck. Last time I got done it was for 60 in a 50 km zone at 4am in the morning. The only other person on the road was the cop who gave me the ticket!! Previously, 62 in a 50km zone after overtaking a granny doing 30km. A quick speed up and overtake then pull in and slow back down. didn't even see the cop coming the other way! To make matters worse, he even said that by the time he had turned around to follow me I was sitting on 53!!! Still gave me a ticket....and demerits....

That is EXACTLY the kind of shit they need to stop. That's where a HUGE amount of revenue is coming from... how many people do you know that HAVEN'T been ticketed under similar circumstances. It's a fucking disgrace.

*Waves hand* Me! I've never got a ticket! Must be doing something wrong (maybe riding a Volty has something to do with it).

Dangerous criminals like yourself should be permanently banned

............And when this happens to you?

• Will you slow down in future?.......nope! more likely to buy a radar detector and start developing a bad attitude towards the coppers-the guys that are supposed to be on our side.
• Can you dispute the ticket?.....BAHAHAHA......nope! neither a lawyer nor judge would care, and the cost of defence would far out way the ticket cost. Tickets of this nature are tax, plain and simple.
• Have you learnt a lesson?..........Coppers behave like the highway men of old, stopping travellers and taking money. They support a corrupt court system that does not effectively allow ticket recipients the ability to question both the validity of the charge and the logic of ticketing [in this case] someone travelling slightly over the limit on a deserted road. The motorist has indeed learnt several important lessons. The government is corrupt, ticketing officers are drones without a single functioning neuron, ticketing in this context is tax.

The government and police continues this brainless game at its peril.

I slowed down. I didn't get a radar detector. I didn't develop a bad attitude. You can dispute a ticket, if there are grounds for disputing it, like, say for example... ummm... I wasn't speeding? Not "I was speeding, but hey, its the coppers fault...."

If tickets are a tax, why are there so many willing to break the rules to pay it?

Cops being like highway men... I like that. Taking from the dumb to give to the dumber. Kinda like Robin Hood, you mean?

You speak of logic.... The speed limit signs are logical.... Ignore them if you wish, you aren't alone.... The logic of ticketing is simple too. Ticket? Or ignore, therefore encouraging the problem?

Verbal warnings do not work. Electronic ticketing is on its way and apparently it can record warnings as well. That will catch out those who say, "I haven't had a ticket in 20 years..." A check will show that is right, but in the last year he/she received 27 warnings for the same thing... Time will tell.

Awesome bring it on I say! I suspect that if the warnings are recorded one might be more inclinied to give them out.

Your taking the piss Patrick

Um....maybe the law is an arse and consequently ignored, maybe to many coppers justifying there own existence by ticketing clean skins.....

I was thinking more like a state sponsored gang of thieves

They are anything but logical. Imposed totalitarian instruction more like, designed to create confusion and strip cash. Do you ever stop to question if the law you uphold has any relevance? It seems to me police blindly accept everything told to them by the government, and impose law regardless of their acceptance to it.

Indeed. Future generations will look back at this period of traffic enforcement as we look back on 18th century Britain, where the speed limit was 6mph and an individual was required to walk in front of the vehicle. I.E archaic!

Pfft, cops, speeding, tickets? - I've other worries in life that affect my more.

Waaa fest, who cares?
-life is too short, move on, find something worth the effort matey.

If the speed limit was 300kph there would STILL be people that thought as per SixPackBack above.

Piss poor rebuttal scumdog.

A lot of KB members do care about dodgy coppers, inappropriate ticketing etc.

And thought what?.... that the law does not work?......stopping errant clean skins just over the speed limit[lets keep some context here] does not work?.....I could go on, but the message is largely lost on yourself.

An interesting aside to speeding is the wide spread habit of officers warning other officers of checkpoints, speed cameras etc. Tell me that does not happen with monotonous regularity scumdog? Kind of difficult for officers to point the chicken bone when the game is not played on an equal footing huh?

You know something though SPB, scumdog lives in a much quieter part of the country than us. It would be fair to suggest that he actually does not know about what you are talking about here.

And it does happen, there are double standards. Fortunately for us they are very isolated, but there is no doubt Hazzard County has its share of the element that are being defended by our illustrious scummy.

Disclaimer: I deserved the one ticket for speeding I received in Hazzard County, no doubt about it, the other one was a simple quota fill by a very industrious plod down Te Kauwhata way, then again I probably should not complain 113kph in a 100, while overtaking a truck on a passing lane is very naughty, I should in fact be dead, I was going faster than 100kph and speed kills

Man, you must live in a crappy part of the country.

I might just change my location to 'Utter Paradise'
