Default Re: Who Has Gotten the Most Speeding Tickets?

Three via "Speed Cameras"
73Kph in a 70 loss of 1 point $165
62Kph in a 60 loss of 1 point $165
70Kph in a 60 loss of 3 point $365
No front number plate loss of 3 points $110 5-45am driving to work theu U turned to stop me. In fifteen years of driving the hotrods and corvettes without front plates NEVER been stopped.

Now THAT'S tough! $165 for going 2 or 3 kph over the limit?! Here in the states they usually let you slide if it's anything below 5 or 10 over. Traffic cameras, the new scourge of the highways!
But, I digress....no tickets for the past 15 years though I've been pulled over thrice recently all for 'rolling stops'. Rolling stops my ***, here in town I was pulled over by one of the newbie cops for what must have been a roll of about an centimeter. Turns out he used to work with my wife so we had a big laugh & all was right with the world. He told me he just wanted to see what the car looked like.
Funny, ha,ha! I wasn't laughing when he pulled me over.
I swear, like Maxxm's comments above, a lot of it is just to generate revenue. Get a ticket here in town & it goes right into the cities' coffers.
