During that time, a driver speeding 20km/h over the limit through a red light in a school zone could lose 13 demerit points if the intersection has one of the new cameras installedJust go past one at over 30 clicks during a normal period outside of school hours and you will still lose your licenece. The above 'what if' is way out there. The above example just shows how stupid the demerit point system is. Double points some days, extra points on others, no points for some stuff.Trust me, im not a fan.I.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XR09 Guests Posted 23/02/10 02:36 AM Share Posted 23/02/10 02:36 AM Has a car ever been crushed under the hoon law's in this country? Even if they were really Gunna, how could they to a car that's under finance? Or indebted in any financial way.Politicians are like baboons in a circle high on over ripe mango's. Slapping the ground and grunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another cheap stunt by a governtment that's not going to be around for much longer.I.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregor Member 459 Member For: 16y 5m 1d Posted 24/02/10 09:19 PM Share Posted 24/02/10 09:19 PM I wonder what % of the road toll is caused by high speed pursuits? As you said, it sounds nice but won't do anything - if you're up to 10 years + a pursuit law wont be an issue. The traffic penalties are way out of step with our criminal punishments anyway. You can do some skids and get your car impounded even if it was a deserted industrial area late at night but if I get pissed and go out and bash an innocent bystander I'll probably get a good behaviour bond, maybe some community service.
