Re: $300 fine for ciggy butt!!
Thoughtless and stupid !! There is no excuse !!
You deserved the fine you got and its a shame it wasnt more than $300 !!
Just get an old jam jar, put some sand in it and put your ciggie butt in there instead and put the lid on .... doesnt litter or cause fire hazards and lo and behold stops the smell.
Although, I suppose such a simple thing is beyond the thought capacity of someone who thinks its ok to chuck a ciggie out of the car window and in Australia of all places

Re: $300 fine for ciggy butt!!
So far I've clocked up
$180 fine for dropping a cig butt that i was about to pick up, i was just treading on it to extinguish and then put in the bin.
$442 fine for parking in a disabled spot at 8.45pm for 1/2 hour!
$82 fine for doing 12km over the speed limit!
1. I've never so much as dropped a crumb on the floor since
2. I've never nipped in or stopped in a space not meant for me since
3. I still never know whether a speed limit on a ramp also applies 3 lanes over on the main road therefore still don't know what the speed limits are so will no doubt get more speeding fines at some point!

I hate able bodied parking in disabled spaces. I have to pick up my eldest from Woolies at 9.30 of an evening and even though the entire shopping centre is shut and the disabled spaces are nearest their exit door, I still can't bring myself to park there 
The off ramp speed is just for the off ramp, not the rest of the highway.

So $700 and you've learnt a thing or two. Well done I hate able bodied parking in disabled spaces. I have to pick up my eldest from Woolies at 9.30 of an evening and even though the entire shopping centre is shut and the disabled spaces are nearest their exit door, I still can't bring myself to park there

Well I have NEVER parked in a disabled spot in my life... but my car was chugging - there were other spaces around... but i pulled fwd into the disabled to reverse back into the normal space but some bastard pulled in behind me and i couldnt go anywhere and it meant i would have to drive round the block again!!! And i just couldnt be bothered and my car was stalling so I thought oh it will be fine because there were other spaces back up the road and on the opposite side.
As for the ramp speed well i was in the 100 zone, then as the exit went off it said 80 and 3 seconds round the corner theres a speed camera which i didnt know about and i was doing 92 damn it.
Gotta laugh or you'd cry eh!
