hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 4m 24d Posted 29/01/08 03:42 AM Share Posted 29/01/08 03:42 AM On australia day with double demerit points, I was cruising along, there were no speed signs, I was travelling downhill, out from behind a rock jumps out a copper. Books me along with about 20 other cars doing 80 in a 60 zone. Double demerit points. Ill post up the photos of the sneaky slimey coppers. there were no signs, they were hidden at the bottom of a hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really call them "Dirty Sneaky Slimey Cops..." when you were the one breaking the law and they caught you doing so. There's no excuse for travelling 30% over the posted speed limit.

It's the parking inspectors that need to be beat down with big sticks, they are the real slimly bastards.

If they truly wanted people to reduce their speed in this area they should have made themselves more visible.Oh well, sux to live in Sydaney Edited 29/01/08 04:41 AM by TurboDewd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 4m 24d Posted 29/01/08 05:12 AM Author Share Posted 29/01/08 05:12 AM So many people got caught, I exchanged details with so many of them, they were all confused about the speed in the area. Police had no intention of slowing people down just booking them.If they had a warning up ahead or if there car was visible people would have either slowed up or still been booked as nobody seemed to know the speed limit. there are no houses about the place, its not a built up area???
