lol vl burgs. i had a similar thing happen to me SLY-PSI but we kept going for like 5 KM's then the cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket. i was doing like 135 in a 110 zone and got $350 and 4 points

My Story I I received a speeding fine 3 weeks ago, for 15kmh over which is 3 points and $207. The fact is I was not speeding! I was doing 50kmh in a 50kmh zone. This is happening more and more around my area, and it�s really starting to get on my nerves. This happened on a Sunday night around 9:00pm. I was exiting a round about, taking a left hand bend which had an approx 5metre rise up a small hill. Even if my speedo is out due to 18inch rims, when I came around the left hand bend the officer was standing in the middle of the road signalling me to pull over. Firstly, he couldn�t see me (but could hear me) due to the degree of the corner and secondly, when I did come around the corner he was no where near his radar, he was standing in the middle of the road waiting for me. So apart from denying the fact that I was speeding and arguing that he was lying, the mistake is, the numberplates that the officer wrote down on the fine are totally different numberplates to mine. I have talked to my lawyer and she has advised me to write a letter, because if he can�t get my numberplates correct while I�m being booked, how can he possibly get my correct speed which was apparently 69kmh around a left hand bend with a slight rise. My Story II This happened last weekend early Saturday afternoon. I was driving down a fairly steep hill into town doing 60kmh in a 60kmh zone (knowing for a fact that police sit at the bottom with their radar at least three times a week). As I came down the hill, I could see them on the side of the road, one on the radar another standing next to him looking through the traffic. As soon as he saw my car, he pointed at me to pull over. This time I had a witness with me, my older cousin. The officer walks over and asks me why I was doing 76kmh in a 60 zone. (just over 15kmh). I replied, �Well as a matter of fact officer I know for a fact I wasn�t speeding, I saw you from the top of the hill.� The officer said that the radar had clocked me at 76kmh and that�s that. He walked off wrote the fine and came back to my window and told me that I was lucky and that he only booked me for speeding less than 15kmh above the speed limit. That was it I�d had enough!! I blew up, �What the f*ck for, I wasn�t speeding in the first place!! You pointed me out because I have a nice car, simple as that�� He walked off back to his fellow officer. I sat their for a couple of minutes to compose myself, got out of the car and walked straight up to him, (making sure I blocked the radar, just to be a nuisance) and asked him to prove the fact that I was speeding, and then I would accept the fine. He couldn�t prove it!! I�m taking the matter to court and I�ll keep you all updated. All this in three weeks, and i'm not the only one...

They have to show you what the radar picked you up for, before they write the ticket.

you'll get off, and if your on your ps try to put in a compo claim - stress over the two incidents, worried you were going to lose your license, lose job, fail uni etc. milk the ****ers!

maybe try to calibrate your speedo with someone else (who has an accurate speedo). your speedo may be out. mine is.

But got away scot free. But that was about three years ago now. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

was doing 142k's they reckon, at the time my license was suspended, and got in to a chase but they couldnt get me, back then had a twin turbo supra and got chased by a red xr8 AU ppl around my aerea would know who drive that car, and a commodore couldnt make it out if it was a SS. got home pulled up in the drive way, and i was talking on the phone for about, max 2mins, they rocked up in my drive way, 14 months extension to my suspension wich was for 2 months, and $1100 fine.

I just added 118 in 100 3 points $200 to my list coz thats the one i got last night when i pay the last 3 tickets i will have 1 point to go, Mmmm not good

I was in the city and a sti pulled up next to me. It had exhaust and had gauges everywhere. So I thought ill give him a run. Just before the lights go green this guys crawling forward. (obviously cant launch his manual) So I have to start from 2 car lengths back. Lights go green and this guy sling shots off. I built up to 60ks and started on my pursuit off traction. This guy was quick took me till around 140 150 to pass him. This thing was so loud I could barely here my engine and I have a screamer pipe and it was only when I got ahead of him I could make out the radar detector going off. I brake hard back to 60ks as was 60 zone and pretend to be a granny. About 20 seconds later I can make out the flashing lights in the rear view mirror. Sure enough he pulls me over. He comes running to the car and says "do you know how f***ing fast you were going," So I told him look probably 70k. He shows me the radar and says more like 170ks smart ass and sure enough on the display 178 is showing. Congratulations he tells me you just made the papers with that effort. said he heard me from 1klm away. So Ive gone listen to my car giving it a rev. How can you hear this from a kay away. (I have a big muffler very quiet untill boost then it screams) Did you see that blue wrx cane down the street. He said no. I said you obviously heard him as my car isnt loud at all. If you hurry youll probably catch him. He looked at me and goes back to the car and tells the media it was a false alarm and took of up the road. Moral of the story radar detectors save cash.
