Police getting tougher on speed tolerance

[scumdog]

Booze buses are part of the master plan. They make people late so that they speed and get camera fines. Works well in conjunction with a 4kph tolerance as even the most well behaved person whose late will stray 4kph and get taxed.

Nah, other way 'round.

People get ticked off going so slow and drink to calm themselves.

Then the booze-bus gets them!

[Akzle]

tolerance for the mufty cops who tail gate up your ass to incite you speed.

109. then brake check.

Who ya gonna call when the speed triple goes walkabout...????

my grandmother, or the mongrel mob/ or y'know... fucken anyone really.

No officer, I wasn't speeding. I know for a fact I was well below the speed limit, I was watching my speedo. You must have aimed your radar at my wheel, which accounts for 50% of the front of my vehicle, which will display incorrect speeds.



Prove otherwise fuckwit.

and that's an excellent start. only you go one step further and deny them jurisdiction from the outset.

Pfft, stopping is option now anyway haven't you heard.

stopping is always optional.

Tag: Runner season begins!

fortunately, i've managed to get my average interaction with crown agents down to about 30 seconds... ending with THEM walking away.
i'm like fucking jesus.

I dare you to try that, let me know how it goes...

bad. because you admit jurisdiction, and you enter as a respondent, and three cops stand up and jack the judge off and you're left with the soggy biscuit.

That's anti tax and silly talk. Repeat drink drivers end up in prison and cost 107k per year to keep inside PA plus they stop paying tax.
Now your sounding like an enemy of the state.

[Scuba_Steve]

I currently have NO demerit points ... I dare YOU to try THAT ... let me know how YOU how it goes ...

I'm pretty sure I've already told you...

And that all fines be ILLEGAL & VOID unless 1st convicted in a court of law... don't see that one being obeyed

Never gets that far, they just commit theft

Let me know how it goes if you spend only half as much time riding as you do ranting on kb.......

Or packing tasers and standing guard by speed cameras to prevent them being destroyed.
Lets face it your being replaced by a machine that's cheaper to run and collects tax more efficiently.
Just to add insult you will end your days protecting the governments more valuable assets.

Just saying.

Actually talk about adding insult to injury, your phone in your pocket will be the new policeman.
You will be mandated by law to carry it and keep it fully charged otherwise you will be deemed a terrorist.
And it will automatically tap n go pay your fine on the spot, and all of them. No discretion like the cop has now of 'oh $600 worth of fines that's enough even though I can write more"....

Speed is so easy to patrol. Why not fine the derps who can't stay in a lane or maintain a constant speed? Or get in the fast lane but don't pass anything, don't look in mirrors, or even look properly before turning etc. These are the real problems. The last few accidents have been caused by idiocy. It still doesn't stop the tailgater driving into you. Speeding wont stop the blind fuck wit pulling out in front of you. Most of the crashes "speed" is involved in is often due to inattention, bad judgement and following distance. Faster you travel the more you need to observe. Can't be going 60 km/h and then expect to stop on a dime. without anticipating stuff. Eg - an intersection - you just don't go barelling along even if you have the right of way. In a perfect world yeah. But you have to anticipate that someone will not be looking. Let off throttle a little. speed drops to 55. move hand/foot towards brake, just a touch - 50 km/h.

Say the car keeps coming. Brake progressively. Clutch in at the end. You stop in time. And from 60 km/h! Speed did NOT kill. True story. Why did I not crash? Head in the game and anticipation. I was not fucking around with ifags and shit. I was on my bike which forced me to concentrate. I could have done the same thing in the car too.

Case in point for arguments sake a school zone, 40 km/h. Yeah that is fine, there are kids around they could run out. So you do 40 k's. A kid runs out. You stop. Person behind doesn't. Following distance. But no it was speed. Person behind didn't have the brain in the game. And you can see it. Everywhere.

I was riding today, speed limit as you do, checking surroundings intermittently. Car in front was going various speeds. I noticed a lot of hand movement. Stupid bitch was having an animated conversation with the passenger. 80% of the attention was focused on the conversation. Meantime the speed was all over the car was all over the road. This is the shit that causes accidents. Half don't even realize they are actually driving. And really they fucking well shouldn't be.

[Oblivion]

So when is the time when the police force and ADD actually get some competent thinkers as the heads of road policing and safety? Is it when all of these old buggers with shit for brains retire with jeans made of $100 notes?

The biggest cause of crashes is Lack of skill and distraction. 100-0 for most people taking into account reaction and time for braking to start is 102m. At 50kmph its 32m

Most people dont realise how bad being distracted is at any speed. Even at 50, being distracted for 1 second doubles your stoppping distance.

Kiwis are inherently poor at hazard detection because as part of the licence tests, it is never bought up. And so if something unexpected happens? Its a lot worse than it could be.

Seriously. This is why I disdain voting. Because everyone promises big shit and overhauls for this area, but all they do is keep adding bandaid after fucking bandaid.

So whens that promotion happening Rastus?

Haha
have you seen the new one on the Wainui hill? It's just a stand at present... some 'Wainuiamartians' decided it didnt need the 'flash' unit, left it with some wires hanging out,, the whole thing had been removed last time I passed it.

What is a real shame is if the police put as much time, effort and presence into working against crime as they do hounding motorists the stats may look a little different.

3 murders out in the streets last night in Auckland, where were the police? just guessing, in a car, tucked away with a speed camera in hand or listining to their speed detector.

Just and idea guys (police) get out of your bloody car and look after your community!

So you are saying that a copper in each house in the country is the answer to lower crime?

Are you as silly as you appear in that post?

Or just trolling....

[Kiwi Graham:Me]

Nope, I'm saying a copper being visable on our community streets instead of hiding or crusing up and down our highways with a brief to ping motorists for a couple of K's is working towards an answer.

Have the police any idea how much respect they are loosing or have lost??
There are times they need the publics assistance in various areas of there work, what do you think the knock on effect of this current 'initiative' is going to do in encouraging the co-operation and assistance. I know the police aren't the brightest bunch of public sevants but it aint rocket science either!

SD I work with some of you guys I hear your banter and claims, what's silly is not recognising what your doing is harming.........what you do, or more to the point what the public want you to do, remember them? They are the people you 'signed up to serve'
Think about it for a moment and look at the bigger picture
