He's right, you know...
Ah, that lovely non sequitur...
Car: repeat after me -- `I was wrong before. In fact I did remember to attach it -- it has always been attached to the swingarm/windscreen/number plate and the warden simply was mistaken and failed to see it. See, here's a photo to prove it. Can I have my $200 back now?'

Bingo. Did it myself with the Welly wardens. Got off the tax.

If you didn't get any demerit points please don't complain!
But yeah, there are a few tickets out there that doesn't make any sense...

Ah, yes, a cunning plan. And for once, it doesn't involve turnips.
If it doesn't work, there's always plan B: www.platemates.co.nz...
Should I get the new plate holder before or after I photograph the rego peaking out from behind it?

As a freshly migrated Pom, I'm well within my whinging quota, thank you very much.

that's good advice.
years ago i used to travel from auckland to levin and back regularly. One day a cop gave me a speeding ticket just before waiouru and his advice to me was to put $10 into a jar every time I drove through because professional reps are always going to incur speeding tax anyway.
the points are a different issue and if the laws get too militant i can see a lot more people doing runners from the police (with some more of those chased to their deaths by cops desperate to have their own 'legal' car race)

Man, I was angry, eh?
I called them the next day, and tried to speak to someone about it, was told that the ticket hadn't been entered into their system yet. They said I should write a letter, include photos, so that they could compare with the photos that the warden might or might not have taken of the bike.
I forgot about it at that point, other things on, and then a couple of weeks (?) later I decided to just walk over there with the ticket and the documentation. I decided on the way over not to try and bullshit my way out of it (reasoning that the truth was believable and reasonable and unlikely to land me in any shit or trap me in any lies) and when I got there they asked me to write a note to go with the photocopy they took of the docs and leave it with them.
Three days later, a letter in the post telling me that they'd looked over the case and decided to let me off. Result.
Needless to say, all of my vehicles are now displaying the correct rego and WoF labels. Lesson learned.

Hmmmmm....
Wife got a ticket last week for no licence label, and it had us really puzzled: did we licence it on-line, and have it lost in the post? Did I mix up the old label and new, and throw away the wrong one? :spudwhat: And I couldn't remember.
So, I rushed down to the PO, filled out the form, and took it up to the counter. "OH - your car's already licenced!"
Hmmmm....
So, I looked and hunted and couldn't find anything.
Rang the LTNZSA or whatever they're called now, and they said they'd send a letter saying it was licenced.
But, I looked and hunted and searched, and found out that it had been paid on the 25th of September. But where was the receipt? And the label?
Then the letter arrived.
And then I found the label and receipt in my bike bag.
So yesterday I photocopied the lot, wrote a letter telling them I was mentally defective and fucked up, and now we're waiting to see what happens. I'm expecting the worst, so we can add to this month's family collection of tickets and fines (so far $1400...)
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....

Ouch!
I actually went round, with my cap in hand (I have a cap specifically designed for wringing 'tween hands at such occaisions) but that was no use because the "appeals department" don't talk to you face to face.
Anyway, good luck with that, hope you get the same result.

It's complete nonsense, a traditional filler used in publishing to bulk out pages with realistic looking text. My first job was as a programmer for a publishing company, got to read and write a lot of fake copy.
Oh, look, wikipedia to the rescue:

I'll give most people doubt but traffic and parking wardens not a chance. They are the vultures of the city. Where's there's an event on for any reason they will be out in force. These fuckers actually enjoy pissing people off.
