Say bout 11 or so! Thought I was in for a treat! Cops just looked at my plates/rego, license, breatho, checked my back tyres! Then yeah he left me standing there wondering if I could go or not cause he went off to check some bikes. Sounds like u got them when they were in a bad mood mika! hopefully not too much is needed for you to get rid of your golden award!

Its from the VicRoads site.http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/NR/rdonlyre...8340/0/VSI8.pdfI did the whole Chaple St thing 10 years ago and all I can say is stay away if you dont want trouble from the cops.

Went to a club called White Charlie and left just before 2am. I saw they were detouring cars off chapel and into the safeway carpark as they saw fit, dodgy as...there was one cop on a power trip, my mrs had one drink and just to be sure she asked to get breathtested and he was such a dick about it, he basically said "I'm not going to breath test you now and if you get in that car and drive off we'll pull you up down the road for RBT" blah blah f*ck off wa*ker, that's what you get for doing the right thing.Anyway back on topic, im pretty sure that the car has to be a minimum of 100mm off the ground when NO ONE is in the car, not with a full car load, take it somewhere and get it measured with no one in the car, if it passes take it up further, I was in the same situation as you one night, I ended up taking to to my machanic and he passed it and wrote on the roadworthy that was legal and shouldnt of been defected, took it to vic roads got the canary taken off then wrote a letter to the police with a copy of my RWC, they reimbursed me in full haha.Well I got no fine and no yellow sticker so I was lucky in a way I guess..

The only cars that were there were 'done up' and the cops that I spoke too were, straight on the offencive when I questiond him, so he probably was in a bad mood.
