man cops like that are few and far between down here. i got one that pulled me with bald tyres, and i thought i was gone (brake sunk to the floor at that time too) he just asked me if the lights worked to my knowlege, i said yes, he said it must stop cause i pulled over, and gave me a "warning" and told me to get new front tyres (the backs were almost as bad) and said that he could have fined me. but would preffer me put the money into my rig than the government coffers.
but inspections aren't the main worry down here............
SPEED CAMERA'S
the buggers will pull you up doing 103 in a 100 zone, clear sunny day, no other cars around, no danger, straight road, and slightly down hill. they love the downhill stretches, they set up at the bottom
which is stupid because our design regulations state a speedo must be accurate to 10%. which means your speedo could legally read 100 when you get pinged for 110 km/h. and still have a legally working speedo.
ohh and it's like 200 bucks for a 3km/h breach.
that is where we get bent over
