I remeber talking to some VIC coppers many years ago about booze buses, about a year after there implementation. The hierachy in the VIC police, ordered there booze bus operators to use them in times when it was unlikely to pick up drink drivers, so the statistics, would show a sudden drop in the occurence of drink driving. This in turn justified the expenses of Booze buses, and so they could buy some more. Statistics hey ,what a handy tool they are.Scotty←These stats are grosely fudged year after year!

Its amazing what weve let happen to our rights here as we have been guided along by one of the greatest political liars in parlimentary history. Fancy these wankers being able to just take cars at the descretion of the so called law when we have some of the most crooked politicians and police forces in the world. The thing that gives me a little comfort is knowing that most of these pricks get a good belting on average of 3 times a year. I know there are some good genuine ones among them, but after seeing first hand what they can get protected from and get away with in WA. Trouble is once they were police, there to uphold laws, now most of them are just the a$$holes from school who nobody liked who actually believe speed cameras and communistic legislation save lives.ALL POLITICIANS LIE TO ALL PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME and the coppers have become there lackies Things like this make me sick, and I'm glad to be leaving what was once such a great country. The people here better pull their heads out of the sand before theres no freedom or rights left IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Called a subsequent offence within the last 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
