Brought in permanently at the beginning of Easter, which is notorious for deaths on the road.

What happens to Stewie when he goes past a speed camera or past one of the vans that are hiding all over the place? No-one to whip his id out there to , is there?

Meelie, I dont think that Stewie , your traffic cop friend will be too pleased about you publishing this info on him in a world wide public forum, you could get him into a lot of trouble , he wouldnt be too hard to track down


Have another chat with him and see what he thinks

jeez, like a dog with a bone ....

i'm sure there is more than one traffic cop with a first or last name of stewie, stuart, stewart, whatever, out of the many hundreds in queensland. someone would have to be pretty sad to follow what is essentially hearsay up

Get over it, it's a well known fact the same as if we speed you get points and fine, we know that source or no source.
