While the $V's may have cuased it, we all know you wouldn't have got a ticket driving a Wheezer!

$142 is cheap, in SA a similar ticket would have been $206!

Does this work in all states?

I had a look at that Vic police link that Silver Ghia provided. It was an interesting read.
It surprises me that the state that doesn't comply with the ADR on speedo accuracy (62 in a 60 and you're gone!) actually has the 'official warning'

I also noticed that the Vic police motto was 'The way ahead, Delivering a safer Victoria'...I always thought it was Victoria Police... Shoot first ask questions later! ;)

You also should stop being such a creep.
What other ones are they using these days.... oh, you should have wiped off 5.

Seriously, though... I thought that they recorded 3km/h less than the detected speed? Or is that only for cameras?
