    It's actually easy to not get speeding tickets. The method above works.

    Accepting control of your riding makes it easy to control your outcomes.

    It's just uncommon, as it's way too easy to blame someone else. Like revenue collecting Popos.

    I used to get cheesed off at Helen and her band of merry socialists attempting to control our lives, until I accepted that I actually control what I do, not her and her gnomes.

    Yeah, it's far better to make your own choices unencumbered by some jumped up authariterian knowall. Getting cheesed off about the gnomes pinging you for it is pointless, just pity them for their ignorance and move on.

    Only if the cops are honest eg get the right vehicle, or don't hold a high reading locked in so they can apply it to anyone they don't like.

    You only control what you do, within their boundaries. Not the same thing. Prisoners can make the same claim and I wouldn't say they have much control over their lives.

    You're new, aren't you.

    After a while you'll stop making sense and just whinge along with everyone else. It doesn't matter what else is happening in the world, if it happens to you, it's someone elses fault.

    Get with it man, you'll give us a bad name.

    No tickets.....YET

    I didn't get any speeding tickets from the age of 17 to the age of 36. I've now had 1 in the uk, and 2 in NZ (all national speed limit). Not happy to have received them, but sometimes stuff happens. I think the current speed restrictions are daft, but understand if I breach them and get caught I have to pay.

    I suspect my last ticket was bogus in the sense that it was less than 3 seconds from turning downhill, last in a queue to when I passed the police car. But I was over the posted speed, so my bad.

    Perhaps it's not that frequent an occurrence; perhaps you haven't covered enough distance yet; perhaps both.

    40,200,000,000 kms traveled by Kiwis each year
    750,000 tickets issued each year
    = 1 ticket per 57,500km
    If 1:10 tickets are bogus you'd still have to be very unlucky to be the one who got it. That's once in every 575,000km.
    If 1:100 tickets were bogus that would be once in every 5,750,000kms.
    But even 1:100 bogus tickets is far too many - the Police are there to uphold the law not commit fraud.

    The fact that you haven't been a victim of it doesn't mean it hasn't happened. I'm guessing you haven't ever been murdered either, but that doesn't mean that murders don't happen.

    I have been murdered twice actually thank god im not dead eh?
    If you complain about speeding tickets your just another bleeding heart victim arn't you. Because it couldn't possibly be that you were speeding could it?
    If the cop pings you doing 111 km/h your still speeding, its still your fault.

    I also rather think i have done the kms to get a ""Bogus"" ticket if such a thing is a regular occurrence. I live in chch and travel via car and soon by motorbike to katikati up in the north island usually do this twice to three times a year. I also quite frequently travel up to whanagrei where i also have family.
    So therefor you arguement is still moot. You got a ticket suck it up stop blaming the popo for doing there job.

    Do you live in a house with a white picket fence with your wife, two lovely children and a dog?
    Do you also not complain about any laws that they introduce that affect you?
    You must be living in the perfect world mate.

    It is everyone's right to question laws that may or may not make sense. If you don't challenge them you accept them. Which is what you are doing. Would you accept a speed limit of 50km max on all roads in NZ? And 20km around all houses? Where do your boundaries lie? Don't call people a "bleeding heart victim" just because they choose to question the law. Otherwise I'll call you the same if the law isn't on your side in future.
