You can do a little wheel spin as long as its not excessive and thats up the officer witnessing the incident to determine.

If you accelerate and swerve all over the road in doing so then you will be done for careless driving.

The point the police officer is trying to make is that if your accelerating to piss the police officer off or to bring attention to yourself then your only looking for trouble.

Most people in WRX's dont want Police Attention and especially a pissed officer traffic officer

Hahahahahahaha, hahahahahahahahhahaa, hahahahahahahah

Your not fucking serious are you ?

People will actually read and believe that shit!

Get a copy of the hoon laws.

Yeah I got pulled over once on South St at 1am on a weeknight, in my dads stock as a rock Holden VY SS ute.

Cops were doing 50-55km/h in the left lane, I passed them at exactly 70km/h in the right lane (I know this because I set the cruise control when I saw them in the distance).

They pulled me over and started grilling me along the lines of "You shouldnt ever pass a cop car".

My response was "What, even if your going under the speed limit? If I was doing 50km/h you would have booked me for going too slow!"

The cunts couldnt get me on ANYTHING...they checked my license, checked the tyres, and even asked me where my mobile phone was, with the comment of "Wouldnt want to catch you talking on your phone now, would we?"

I pretty much said to them "You going to keep harrassing me at 1am for nothing, or can I drive home now before I get too tired to drive?"

They let me go after that...but geez was I fuming for a few days afterwards.....STUPID CUNTS! Even tried to get me with the whole mobile phone thing. If they had, I would have taken that all the way to court and to the Police ombudsman, with phone records proving that I wasnt doing anything of the sort!

Cops are all carnts.... useless wastes of space who abuse their power. Thats why they choose the job, not to help people but to exercise their god complex on a daily basis.


Apologies to the 2 decent cops in WA.

Hey all

Working in local government we need to up to date on the local laws, including the Road Traffic Act 2000.

Here is a link to the Road Traffic Act 2000 and others.

http://www.policespeedcameras.info/laws_wa.html

Might help with some of the questions.

Cheers Jimmy

End of the day (I'm sure many ppl will agree), permits aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

C'mon you guys... The answer is simple. Lower the speed limit
from 50kph to 40kph.
