Impossible corner

[Kev Murphy]

Meanwhile, without any further investigation, this traffic camera will continue to provide false information regarding other drivers/riders which will lead to more charges.

Yeah. Don't do it Draco. Have your day in court my friend. 12 points is a high price to pay me thinks. 

Surely it's not 12 points!   
Do you mean 4 points added to the 8 you already have?
Either way, it reads like you've done the deed and now have to ride like a Nanna for a year.   

  because i accumulated "2" speeding fines within 1 year the highest points are doubled so "6" become "12" thus "Nanna" rider for 1 year OR loose it for 5 months, but lose 2 points within that year it becomes 10 months NO LICENCE SAFETY MY A$$ revenue raising is the correct term for this

Draco you really need to fight this one.
1. It is grossly wrong and you cannot afford the points, or the fine.
2. You may save many other riders from an incorrect reading.


Its easy for us outsiders to say but any reasonable person can see that the rading is impossible


Cheers

Maurice Blackburn Lawyers motto is "we fight for fair".  While they specialise in accident compensation suits, they have a social justice area as well and may be willing to take your case on for "no win, no fee".

I've had no dealings with them apart from picking up a card at a motor show so know nothing about how they'd handle the case or even if they'd take it on.

There could well be other legal firms doing the same stuff but it may be worth a call.

Good luck

I think you'd need a pro-bono solicitor.  Maurice Blackburn and the rest of the Ambulance Chasers will only take on cases on a "No Win No Fee" basis where there's money to be won.  There is no prize money for this one.  Only a possible escape from paying money to the gummint.

They have been doing the Helmet and helmet cam cases for free as i understand it, mind you it does give them great free advertising.

Totally agree. Understand, that the easy way out is go with the flow ,pay the fine and and take the points. Not if you are right though!

I would like to propose that as we all will benefit from the court action,  we make a contribution to support this cause. I am very happy to chip in $100 to a win lose draw fund, to fight this rubbish. If we don`t, we are collectively letting ourselves down. Nigel

[Biggles]

Can you fight a fine if you've paid it?  The payment of the fine is regarded as an admission of guilt,  which is why you don't pay it before going to Court, and why the points aren't applied until the fine is paid.

[Nigel]

Just the reason it has to go to court, but if a loss occurs the costs are covered > Nigel

[spanner]

I'd pop a couple bucks into the kitty

I'd have thought that if they won, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers would ask the magistrate to recover their charges from the Police as costs.

You could well be right.  I try to stay away from lawyers, judges and Courts, so don't know much about any of them.
