I got an infringement notice handed over in person for detected speed 108/alleged speed 106 on permitted speed 80. LASER at 370 meters from side road of a Hwy. Code 1929, speeding by 25-30. Disqualified from driving in VIC for 3 months, starts in 2 weeks.
Just 2 more kms under and would have got off from suspension.
1, On the notice, the given name is spelt incorrectly; so is the address. Does this qualify as defect notice ? Any chance get away from this based on the in-corrections?
2, When they pulled me over there were two riders (including myself) stopped at red signal in traffic. Few kays were covered between the alleged incident location and the place I got pulled over. There was no pursuit (lights/siren) involved.
[They cheekily made their way through, I bet they were speeding
Can they prove that they pulled over the right person? The other rider unknown to me continued as the lights turned green.
3, I could stop worrying about all these and take it on the chin and cycle to work, however, that is going to be hazardous with the current air quality in Melbourne. What are the possible consequences in court for pleading guilty just to prolong the suspension?
I would appreciate any suggestions on this.
Cheers
