Re: I got nicked for speeding.
Altho 2 of mine were my stupidity for believing that when driving on a UK licence I'd get the fines, but no points. Well that WAS the case till I applied for my QLD one and there they were! ... :curse:
Other WAS a stitch up and 92 in an 80 with unmarked car parked facing me in the middle of nowhere (on the way to Jacobs Well). Corn fields on both sides for a good few miles and apart from a martian making crop circles popping out of nowhere I wasn't gonna harm anyone, and was actually in an emergency situation but the copper was a tosser and just wanted figures!

Re: I got nicked for speeding.
yeah thanks guys, I was being very good and as soon as i saw the 70 sign i slowed down but like i said, you don't jam ya brakes on do ya. you just lift off the accelerator and slow to the required speed. The sneaky copper was sitting just after the 70 sign and probably catching everybody.
I mean come on, hands up those who go straight from 90 to 70 in ten feet.

Re: I got nicked for speeding.
i think it must be the only way to be to be honest. i do think the coppers are being a bit unethical (if thats the right word) in sitting 10 yards inside the speed limit sign behind a bush. i wouldn't care but it is on a dual carriageway with no danger to any pedestrians at all. Its not like anyones at risk from me doing 10k over the limit for another 20 yards.

Police here just don't seem to have or have the freedom to think for themselves. They are sneaky in getting people for speeding so think it's only fair to be sneaky in police trap avoidance to level up the playing field.
Get yourself a UHF radio either fixed or hand held and put on channel 40 well worth the money it will save you $1,000's in the long run.

They just don't take into account traffic flow, conditions or empty roads into account at all.
