    Scotty you asked for one reference for getting booked for slow driving and here it is. The fact is he got booked for driving slow, even if the story is a beat up the fact remains he got booked for driving slow, the reference you requested

    No, he didn't.

    He got booked for driving in the right-hand lane when the law clearly states, on that stretch of road, you must keep left unless overtaking; his speed was totally irrelevant.

    He was just trying to seek sympathy / do the great Aussie whinge in his attempt to get the media on side and therefore embarrass the cops into withdrawing the ticket.

    He did the wrong thing - it was nothing to do with his speed - he should stop deliberately obfuscating and cop the fine.

    Same thing, if he isn't overtaking (going fast enough) on the right lane keep left yeah right. So he wasn't going fast enough to overtake i.e. driving slow in the right lane.
    So he got booked for driving slow end of story but technically you can come come up with something like failing to adhere to the constant velocity that is expected for the occupants of the right lane.
    You can call it or describe it anyway you like.

    Even allowing for the fact you are obviously tossing it up for the sake of sh1t stirring, isn't your brain bleeding after being twisted into such a ludicrous argument?

    not stirring, you asked for evidence and I gave you a sample, after sample was given you said it was a beat up story and now accusing me of sh1t stirring and indulging in ludicrous arguments (takes 2 to tango), if the argument was so ludicrous then why did you ask for evidence.
    Anyway I have stated my opinion regarding speed cameras and their real purpose for using them, for me they are used to make money for our incompetent state government and for you it saves lives.
    I can live with that fact and move on, I am sure I have expressed all my opinions so I'll put an end to it.

Having learnt to drive in country Qld, it's hard top stomach a single lane bi-directional road can can have a limit of 100kph whilst 4 lane roads here are 60kph...
    The canberra ref, is actually a dig at how great the roads are there, not where the money is, and yeah I can say that, over the years I have done a fair few km around australia, one trip included, the great ocean road, reefton spur, black spur, bells line of road, mount panorama, galston gorge, old pacific highway, monaro highway, snowy mountain highway, and all the connecting roads.. Close to 6500 km in 9 days..
