[TOM1111]

a guy that works for us used to look after the hwp cars down wollongong way don't worry they don't need edit, ford can do plenty with the ecu when they want to

so can Expensive Daewoo but they always deny it

I went to the Expensive Daewoo factory in adelaide and my old man asked if the cop cars get a different ecu/tune and there like NAH NAH there stock

It was ten in total, they were all ZF autos with cloth interior and reverse sensors only, standard brembo brakes. Sorry, I can't remember the plate numbers

Come one mate I'm sure you can get a hold of those details....

I guess they are fighting fire with fire, I doubt they will be able to get into the new rexys so whats next - the phoon of course.

Yep, I saw the unmarked Seduce Typhoon this arvo on the New England Hwy just outside Singleton. He was booking a brand new VE Late model camira SS for speeding. The look of humiliation on that Expensive Daewoo boy...

So - wonder how the first person testing the "entrapment" law with these new vehicles will go??? Remember - if they entice you to engage in a race, they're in the wrong - and can be in deep doo doo if proven to be doing so. Know your rights......

I know a bloke who got the cops for entrapment on a bike

they ended up just leaving as he said he would PWN them in court for entrapment

[ZAP]

There is no provision for entrapment under Australian law.

The only way you might get away with it would be to video a cop reving his motor up next to you trying to make you drag him.

If they booked you then go crying to ACA or TT to air the video.

At the end of the day, no one made you drag race, just because a cop in a unmarked car is baiting you, you make the decision on IF you floor it.

Entrapment in State Proceedings

The situation in relation to entrapment has been changed so far as state offences in New South Wales are concerned by the Law Enforcement (Controlled Operations) Act (1997). The definition section makes it clear that a 'controlled activity' is an illegal activity (s. 3).

A law enforcement officer can make an application in writing (or, in urgent cases, orally) to the chief executive officer of a law enforcement agency (usually the Commissioner of Police) for an authority to conduct a controlled operation. The application must include the plan of the proposed operation, the alleged nature of the criminal activity or corrupt conduct being investigated, the nature of the 'controlled activity' to be used, and a statement about whether there has been any earlier application (s. 5).

The chief executive officer may authorise the controlled operation if satisfied that

*

there are reasonable grounds for believing that criminal activity or corrupt conduct is being conducted

*

the nature and extent of the criminal activity and corrupt conduct is such as to justify the conduct of a controlled operation

*

the nature and extent of the proposed 'controlled activities' are appropriate to the suspected criminal activities or corrupt conduct

*

the controlled activities are capable of being sufficiently accounted for

The power to issue an authority can be delegated but only to an officer of or above the rank of superintendent (s. 29). A written statement of reasons should be kept by the Chief Executive Officer (s. 6).

Importantly the legislation prohibits inducing or encouraging a person to commit criminal activity or corrupt conduct that the person could not reasonably be expected to engage in unless so induced or encouraged. It also prohibits conduct likely to seriously endanger the health and safety of any person, or cause serious damage to property (s. 7).

The authority must be in writing and must indicate:

*

the operation by reference to the plan

*

the law enforcement officer who is conducting the operation

*

must identify the names of each person who may engage in 'controlled activities'

*

must indicate whether such persons may operate under an assumed name

*

must indicate the 'controlled activities' each law enforcement officer and civilian participant may engage in

*

must specify the duration (not to exceed 6 months) of the authority (s.

A law enforcement official and a civilian authorised to engage in a 'controlled activity' does not constitute an offence (s. 16). A certificate issued by a chief executive officer of a law enforcement agency to the effect that he/she was satisfied of matters referred to in the certificate is conclusive evidence that he/she was so satisfied (s. 27).
