I don't see how not losing a demerit point is being a smart ass?
Personally, I don't know how many points I have lost - not because it's too many to count, nor because I don't care.
I got pinged once years ago on the drive from Laverton to Kalgoorlie... First stop in town was the Kal post office to pay the fine.
The demerits didn't matter because I learnt my lesson - not to brake road rules to the extent of attracting any attention or causing an unnecessary hazard, and subsequently I haven't, so never needed to count how many I had left to lose.
