BIG THANKS to the Cop that pulled me up in Victoria today, clocked me at 121 kph and was a $220 fine, he let me off with a warning and said to have a safe trip home to Perth, thanks heaps mate. Lesson learned was when you put 33" tryes on it puts your speedo out, I should have remembered that earlier after all these years, wondered why everyone else was going so slow...hahaha
Good to hear mate..... safe travels.
You were lucky.
They were probably amazed that a Diesel Patrol could actually go that fast.
Must've been a lot of smooth talking going on doggy ;)
He gave him some free tuppaware.Quote:

He prob couldn't be bothered with the extra paperwork for an interstate fine.
They are deadly serious about the road toll here, maybe break out the GPS
for a more accurate reading
If you were getting a ticket for 121kph you were probably doing 126ish kph
Very very very lucky, but we all deserve a break at some stage, dont we lol
I assume you were nice and polite and he was a reasonable bloke, good outcome.
Mate of mine was "done" in Bremer Bay WA over the Easter break.
He was leaving town, was in a 50 k zone, saw the 80 k sign 100 m in front of him, so accelerated, two girlie cops hiding behind the 80 k sign did him for 60 k in a 50 zone. Also gave him a breath test, inspected his 6mth old Prado for defects and where going to book him for not having a rego sticker, they aren't issued in the ACT (or most other states I think) anymore. Held him up for 1/2 hour while they checked his "story". Oh, he is a grey haired 65 year old, so hardly a bogan hoon.
Score Vic Police 1 WA 0
Must of fancied ya lol
Doubt they were coppers, more likely strippers checking out their costumes...Quote:

I think that WA was the first mob to drop them actually but could be wrong
