as for not travelling alone; close but no cigar
you were fined for travelling into the CBD if the car only had one person (cops on every entry into the city taking numbers etc)
if you had a special licence or multiple bodies in the car it was OK
I lived just behind the Mandarin Hotel and worked in the Shaw Ctr on the cnr of Orchard and Scott; I walked to work and only took the car when I had to get away from the CBD
Electronic enforcement will be here soon.

Your vehicle will be tracked electronically. So will you and you passengers with facial recognition software and simple systems like following your cellphone.
Your tickets will be automatic, no need to bother a policeman.
So, while I can, I wont pay the fee. So far I'm thousands up. They will get me one day.
When the system is good enough, I will have to pay.
But its not today.
David must play fair with the other kids, even the idiots.
Amen to that. Even when it is good enough, we will find other ways to get around it and make compromises.
From my calculations I am nearly $1500 dollars up which I am quite happy about. Also, I'm way down on speeding fines now due to being much more restraintful, aware of traffic Police/cameras and choosing areas to speed.
It's only illegal if you get caught.
Do you know roughly when the technology will be implemented?

i think even with the raping we are getting from vehicle licensing costs, you have to see the positive side of things.
running the bikes without a rego im finding myself with more money in pocket due to increased awareness and attention when on the road. looking out for the boys in blue and generally feeling much trepidation in the town/city areas has definitely led to a decrease in speeding fines and possibility of having an accident. a side effect of this all is increased respect from road users.
its keeping my skin and money where it rightfully belongs.
Don't they just kill murderers? Similarly to America, Iraq, Iran, and Saudi Arabia etc.
Morally corrupt to take someone elses life. Sure keep them in prison for the rest of their lives. And not the type of prisons we have, should be a big pit that gets a toss of rotten scraps of food that supermarkets constantly throw out.
Killing them is just... a sick thought. Though I guess some people think it's ok to take someones life, guess that's why murderers exist in the first place.
My bike has been off the road for about 8 years.
just been doing some work to it before i put it back ont he road.
Went for a test ride out whitford way - went throught the roundabout and round the corner the traffic was backed up. Then i saw a cop car parked with road cones out - did a quick U turn and off i went. Rego ran out april 2004 lol.
