Moral of the story… litre super sport with a flip plate. Just drop a few gears and take off.

People forget they are human too

After watching this video I then had a read of the comments, as you do. My first response was "well you knew it was an 80 zone, but chose to do 118". That was followed by "suck it up, sunshine". I don't know that road, and as I'm not a traffic engineer can't comment on whether 80 is too slow or not. A lot of commenters seem to have little idea of speed limits in other countries. German Autobahns with their 130 speed limits sound great, but remember Germans are actually taught to drive properly. Here we just have basic lessons and basic tests, and getting a licence in Germany is about 3 times the cost here. Of probably a dozen fatal motorcycle crashes I've been to, all but two could have been avoided if the motorcyclists rode better. They might not have caused the crash but didn't have the ability to avoid it.

Mate, that would've been an EASY ticket to challenge. As you were approaching the cops, the road you were going around was curving to the right. The Interpretation of Legislation Act 1984 (Vic), section 43 says: "In the measurement of a distance for the purposes of an Act or subordinate instrument, the distance shall, unless the contrary intention appears, be measured in a STRAIGHT line on a horizontal plane." They wouldn't have got your radar reading on a straight line which would breach this section of law and invalidate their ticket. Also, you could read the operator manual of the equipment they used and find inconsistencies in their operation. It's THEIR job to prove you guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Never incriminate yourself.

i mean sure its stupid or a "laughing stock to the rest of the world", but what did you really expect going that much over the limit, not saying i agree nor disagree with the policing but it is a written rule and should expect the punishment...

Australia definitely needs to revise their speed limits..it’s a 6th largest country in the world and you can definitely increase the speed limits safely without any threat to the motorists Paying an individual fine in hundreds doesn’t help in this crisis time

So you were speeding, and then you whine like little bitch about getting caught in the description, then don't fucking speed dickhead

Cope my man. You were speeding where you shouldn’t have been while on a bike and got caught. It isn’t the cops fault you can’t stop speeding.

If you're incapable of comprehending the road rules, don't drive on public roads. I figured a solipsistic whinger like this would be a habitual speeder, and unsurprisingly they've uploaded footage driving 119km/h in a 60km/h zone: th-cam.com/video/kVdNYQLR_AE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dSE0QOnWIBaMLZ4x&t=774 $682 fine and a 6 month suspension is too lenient for idiots like this.

1.speeding limits in Australia are all way too low and 2. If it’s a clear road who cars if your going 30 over he’s not hurting anyone and it’s a wide road so he wouldn’t hurt him self either

"omg i cant believe the cops are enforcing the laws that they are paid to enforce"

Being from the UK it's amazing how similar our police and punishments are; the cop's attitude and way of dealing with it is identical to our traffic cops! We also get milked for pennies for speeding too, having one of the lowest national speed limits in Europe (~110kmh) it's so easy to speed on motorways and main roads.. where there's always a mobile speed camera hiding!

Bro you have to use waze it could have saved you

I was caught in the uk 71mph in a 50mph zone and I was given 3 points and £100 fine. What you were given is absolutely insane

sorry for the trouble mate.

I thought that you had to be going at least 40 kph over the speed limit, to have your licence suspended for 6 months, not 38 kph over the limit.

got the same on the gold coast... wish you the best

Driving more than 20kph over a limit is a dangerous driving charge. Court appearance for that one. 🥴

Cops driving around in BMW’s on our tax dollars

Road pirates

Instead of chasing real criminals... ah that's right, there is no money to make there.

I couldnt be bothered chasing down that ice addict because he probably wouldnt have any money , but you with a nice bike , im sure youve got some money

40+kmh is loss on the spot?

Lucky to find a stretch of road that’s safe to 80 in Victoria

just dont do the wrong thing

At least the cop was a good bloke

That sucks man i just got fined 2 days ago for speeding wayy too fast i was doing 100kmh in a 50 zone and im getting my licence suspended. I admit that im dumb. i get away with a lot sometimes, and this time i was caught. Same situation as you though straight road few cars and opened it up a bit. But this time it bit me in the rear end.

Just great police work . Motorcycles are a law to Themselves think they can go any speed limit and be as loud as they want. Losers

The cop was actually pretty good.polite and calm...i

there was no one around sure if it was school zone but it was empty

118 on that road should be legal. Fining you is just wrong.

Reminds me of the quote from Liar Liar where Jim Carrey gets a call from an annoying client who's always in trouble: "Stop breaking the law, asshole!"

Wow they can scan u 380meters away?

I don’t have a problem with the speeding ticket , but why do the police handle the drug tester with their bare hands before they expect you to put it in your mouth ?

First raise the dumb & stupid speed limits 😒

Is this a hoax because they were doing the Hive finger gestures they do at the hoax protests. Aspergers is non-Hive from Hive families. Hive lie without conscience. Hive coordinate the lies with finger gestures. Massive criminal medical cover up. The entire neurodiversity narrative appears to be a psyop to drug the non-Hive.

Don't use Google maps use waze - that cop would have been flagged and you would not have that ticket

serious serious crime apparently

Government themselves should be fined for stupid rules like this. Empty open road. Police just sitting waiting. Ultra low speed limit. Plain daft. Pointless non-job as well. As safety has improved, speed limits should be higher so we can go faster and get places quicker. Police number on the road should be lower as fatal accident rates have declined. I live in Australia and agree with this. I regularly travel to Germany, where your granny will drive in her VW Golf at 150kph on the autobahn, or the UK, where you are left alone on the motorway until you go past 85-90mph, or the US where everyone drives +10mph over on the freeway, but then you come back to this.

Welcome to the Peoples Democratic Republic of Victoria where clowns in costumes shake down this guy for a few bucks meanwhile a murder is being committed down the road with impunity

theres a fine line between being too chill and pissed off. if you come across as too chill, i reckon the cops think youre just arrogant. too pissed off and theyll think youre being rude. that being said ive had 3 speeding tickets and never gotten off. still tryna find the balance.

You endangered so many lives with your reckless riding. 🤣🤣 Australia is a joke.

Suspension for that? 73 in a 50 In the UK thats a Simple 3 Points + £100 fine.

Fuck around and find out

Bro when he breaks the law: "ARARGGGHGHH F*CKING COPSS!!!"

I agree speed limits are a joke but breaking the limits is still stupid to do

easy, dont speed

very respectful, tbh, i am from victoria and to be safe i use waze haha

That cop seems cool.

There was literally nobody there other than you ffs.. I would have actually asked them if at least I can breathe or not after all those tests and questions…seemed like you bloody killed someone.. That one of the things I really hated about Australia..ridiculous speed limits.. and the way the think.. too stricter for no reason.. cops should try to use logic sometimes and not just be slave of the government.
