Motorway Patrol on next/now (20 August)

[v8s&2wheels]

40k over speed limit is around $600 fine from memory (havent had it). And then chuck in a $400 fine for dangerous driving (riding in the this situation) and that makes your $1k pretty simple.

Also he was disqualified for 6 months total. They said loss of licence for 28 days was on the spot (because he did over 40kms over speed limit, cops are allowed to take licence right there and then).

...and at more than 40 km/h above the speed limit you could also get a 28-day licence suspension.

Not could... you do.

Unless the nice officer writes your crazy speed down to 139 or something like that.

licence suspension.

Is that licence suspension adjustable or is it pre-loaded?

[pyrocam]

I ride with random other riders all the time, its not unbelievable that he could of been riding with someone he didnt know. sometimes I prefer to ride with some random than some of the other people I ride with

[MDR2]

Scuse my ignorance,but isn't 100kmh the speed limit on the motorway?

If bikers speed was 160 (as said at the end of the program) then wouldn't his fine be $600?

Thought it was $10 per k over the limit was the rule yet he got a grand?

I'm prolly wrong but that was my understanding.

im not 100% sure but I thought there was a change to the way sppeders were fined earlier on in the year? Larger $$ at the cost of less demerits.

Hehehehe, I thought it was sweet that they felt the need to add the sound of the other bike hooning past the stopped Duke.

I'm also a bit shocked that someone who chooses to dress like Liam Gallagher circa "wonderwall" was riding a 748. Clearly the man's taste only extends as far as his transport...

You obviously missed that fat fuck on the ZX10 on last weeks program...hoodie,jeans and sandshoes...

when it comes to cops and bikes it's always pre loaded ... LOL .. hell, i got pulled over last month, and i said to the cop and i quote "excuse me officer and with all due respect, why did you pull me over and not the car in front of me, i was matching his speed?"

His reply.

"You were going 1K faster"

If your speed is more than 50 km/h over the limit you could be charged with careless, dangerous or reckless driving, and at more than 40 km/h above the speed limit you could also get a 28-day licence suspension.

I've never heard of traffic offenses affecting a travel visa .. but that's not my area i would imagine it might meet emigration policy.

"If it meets the definition of a "crime" as it is punishable by imprisonment. You definitely need to declare it."

if your worried about it contact the embassy of the country you want to visit.

I think that the Ducati Family should disown this clown! I don't want to be tarred with the same brush as that dumbass!

Im surprised there was no thread for last weeks episode where two bikers were pulled up.

One for riding a bike over 250cc while on restricted the other for riding a 250 with no bike license. I guess we only care about the speeders around here
