    You never have to "just pay the fine" when you are right. Tell them "NO". If you end up in front of the judge, then indignantly tell him you are innocent, and will emphatically NOT be paying any fine.

    Stand up for yourself when you know you are right.

    So what happened? Did the OP have to pay up or did he get away with it?

    Understand your indignation but life isn't always fair. Mostly - but not always. Refuse to pay a fine and you'll eventually lose your wages and/or vehicle and ultimately be imprisoned.

    A mate of mine was pulled up years ago in Christchurch and accused of doing a runner. He had the bad luck to be in the same area as a similar bike.

    Got a lawyer etc and got convicted. Shrugged and paid the fine. He'd been speeding plenty of times and figured it was karma. Still riding enthusiastically today.

    Yup, they just start ripping it out of your wages now. Send a letter to your employer instructing them to divert X amount from your wages, and there is nothing you can do about it, apart from negotiating what you can actually afford.

    They only do that after all other actions are ignored ... you make an a agreement then they don't.

    Well I'm self employed, so they are SOL there. They will have to park across my driveway and charge a toll each time I use it.

    I guess there are a few people who get unreasonably treated by the legal system. It hasn't been me so far, but then I generally behave on the road - cheeky but not dangerous.

    Still I think I would be inclined to turn up in court in tee shirt and shorts, without lawyers etc, and tell the judge its all a bad mistake. A large and complex defense just gets them thinking the wrong way. Keep it simple I reckon, and just tell them "no, you got it wrong - ordinary kiwi bloke going for a ride gets unjustly accosted by police etc, kthx, byee." If they won't hear that, then just shrug and walk out - not your problem.

    Nope. They can draw it straight from your bank account.
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!
