I think the only reason why ur friend had a short suspension was because he had a 'valid' reason for speeding. Like family emergency or anything along that line. Otherwise he would have to be the luckiest man on earth to speed like that and only get such a short suspension and fine.

[Mr. Jones]

I think gantung and 2k fine.. like my friend kena last year.. he did same thing that you did... Good luck friend!

[samuelftw5]

amen. Hope you dont need to retake everything.

i was late for work my company has a very strict policy about puntuality. plus juz nice the road was clear so i chiong lor who knows got tp ard. i did not managed to see them. and for ur info i was damn suay. if i was travelling at 140 most to most 12 points but i was at 142 so its 18 points. dunno if they can drop the charge to 140 anot..

 

 

rule of thumb: plan well.prepare to go to work early so u can beat the early morning traffic rush n reduce the risk of getting into an accident.n pls dun use that excuse in court unless u wan the judge to turn u into a laughing stock.plus, having a licence is a god-send nowadays n some ppl need it for work so treasure that green card

what's the update?

[Nick_Lee]

hopefully no news is good news... but i doubt so... normally no news means bad news...

[w00t]

Where's the news!

[HimQQ]

ok.. went to find mp got some good news, maybe bad news to some.. mp confident of dropping the charge to 12 demerit points... i get to keep my licence and still have 12 points can take class 2... praise the lord...

 

I thought after deduction of 12 points, you'll be left with 1 point to spare, until 1 yr from the date you commit the offence, then is the 12 points returned to you?

[ohayo]

Maybe he cant pay the fine and 'went in'?

i second that. But that would be tragic. After all u could 160 legally in German Autobahn, but go in to squat in SG for lesser speed. Real tragic then.

[hanwen]

no more updates from TS?

[Tyrian]

the only way to speed legally is

 

1) Behind an ambulance

 

2) Behind a hearse

 

3) on SAF 4hour notice to move. eg, got recall to catch Mas Selamat.

[hanwen]

are you sure its legal to speed behind an ambulance?

You can actually argue on this issue. You already got punished by the court for the offense that u committed. Why do they even want to summon u to the court if they wanna revoke your licence in the first place? They can even appeal to the court if they are not satisfied with the judge's decision, instead of sending u a letter to revoke your license. No one can overrule the court's sentences. You can look for the MP from your estate and see if he can help u to write in to TP on your behalf, a simple note from your MP will be better than an appeal letter that u wrote.

[ocel]

pay yr fine gt yr point still want to revoke . wat crap is tis? me too few yr back goin at 119 when the road is 50 gt 18 pt n 750 fine. bt tp neva call me after tat had to be a gd rider for a yr n all 18 pt clear one shot.

[temp3r]

they will revoke only your class 2A.. they give you chance to explain.. but is all crap.. they sure revoke your 2A

Used to speed when i was younger.. Got caught once but was let off with a warning.. TP clocked me at 130km/hr... hehe.. was riding a super4 vtec 2.. My excuse was since when was i speeding.. what i see is i was riding at 100km/hr.. Then the TP said.. What is the max speed on expressway..

 

So i said 90 plus minus 10 mah.. So i bring at 100 la.. Then the TP said at 100 he could fine me as well.. I was let off with a warning and he asked me to get my meter checked.. What a nice TP.. I would kiss him that time LOL.. was left with 6 points btw.. So from that day on i promised myself no more speeding..

 

that's damn lucky.. if he fine u at 130 ur license sure gone..

Bottomline - not worth your while to "try" and beat the system here. The system always win hands-down.

[Metaphor]

So what's the final outcome?

 

I too was caught for speeding 146km/h on a 80km road.

 

Exceed 61km

 

Offence on the April 19th 2010.

Who you meant the OP above? I didn't see what's his final outcome.

not directed at anything in particular, but i thought, above a certain limit, the punishment becomes much more severe than the usual fine and demerit?
