Gday
I no a few blokes on the list are coppers, well this is my story and can you
please give me your advice:
On monday night i went to the fatboy slim concert at UNSW and on the way back
at 2.30am i was going along victoria road across the gladesville bridge and i
went over the top of the bridge and on the other side they had a rbt unit where
they were pulling cars over. I was pulled over and did the test and i had 2
beers in 5 hours so i passed the test, then he asked me for my license which i
didnt have. I left my wallet at home because i thoguht that there was a high
chance of having it stolen or lost at the concert. But i took my proof of age
card cause it was a over 18's only. So he asked me if i had any other id so i
gave him my proof of age card. So he took it then went back to car where i
assume he checked with base to see if i had a license, which i do, and to see
if my car was regestered, which it is. So after about 5 minutes he came back to
me and asked for my address, whcih i gave to him then he said he was issuing me
with a fine of $69 for not having my license on me. Thats it. Im fuckin pissed
off for a few reasons- i wasnt drink driving, wasnt speeding, wasnt driving
like a fangio, i wasnt a smart arse to the cop, i have never had a ticket for
anything ever before and my car was registered and insured. Yet he still gave
me the fine for a small offence that was my first run in with the law. And
about 10 years ago i was in the back of my family car when we were coming back
from a restarant when dad got pulled over, he passed the breath test, then the
cop asked him for his license which he left at home, but the cop said ok dont
woory just remember it next time. And in the last year my mate was pulled over
for doing 112 in a 70 zone and the cop let him off with a verbal warning.And
that rich poofter Mr Faber castell was clocked at 203 in a 110 zone and got off
with paying the $56 court costs and going to some piss weak education course.
He didnt get license suspended or fined or community service. Well the bottom
line is i am a uni student who is poor and i dont want to pay the fine and i
honestly beelive that i have been harshly done by, especially when you consider
the mitigating circumstances. How do i go about protesting the fine and what
chance do i have of getting off. Im not a happy chappy.
Pele.
