That doesn't seem fair

I thought I'd start this up and see where it goes.

A mate of mine recently got a yellow sticker on his truck. Couple of small issues which he fixed and took for inspection. All passed Ok EXCEPT the inspector pinged him becaust the fog lights on his roo bar didn't work. Here in WA fog light are not permitted to be used and my mate pointed this out. They came on the roo bar and as they are not to be used here, he had not even wired them up. Nope, not good enough.
As they are there they have to be work, even though your not allowed to use them. Anyway he wireed them up and got passed and now has a prefectly legal truck even though some functions cannot be used.

The law is the law is the law, even when policed by dickheads! Get a name etc and have the evil twin whack a curse on, might cost a coupla chickens but hey, revenge is rarely inexpensive! Hahaha

If i fit a grenade launcher to my roo bar, does it have to work, even though it is illegal?. Any other thats not fair stories?

I remember years ago when living in Alice if your motor bike had indicators fitted they had to work.
easier to remove them at the time and just use hand signals

I don't know how true it is but my mate who does roadworthies in VIC said that if the car has a spare tyre in it, the tyre must be in roadworthy condition. But there is no problem if there is no spare.
So when doing certificates and the car has a bald tyre as a spare he takes it out, passes the car and then puts the tyre back in.

When I got the GU back to WA I had to put it over the pits for rego, due to not having the 3rd row of seats I was told that I had to remove the seatbelts before they would sign off on it and change it from a 7 seater to a 5 seater.

A guy at the laser cutters just got pinged for the very same thing.
I told him to take it off the back door and put it in the cargo area, but he didnt
and copped the fine

Yep, I had to do the same in ACT with my old Patrol

So maybe just maybe all these ppl with drawer systems in the back and the belts still showing
are pushing the laws a touch, depends if policeman notices it I suppose

Yep, correct Winnie.
My brother in law used to do them.
