                    • +3

                      @easternculture: Please just show some courtesy and respect to your fellow Australians and start to pull over when you have a car behind you when it's single lane and they are not legally able to over-take you. Most Australian's will not see a need to go 5km/h under the speed limit and you may actually cause an accident by frustrating drivers to the point they may try to over-take you in a dangerous situation. Or do you only care about yourself and not your fellow Australians?

                        @Scroosh: When you rely on your license for work, every km you drive over the speed limit is a risk.

                        Driving 5km below speed limit is a means of self control. And just be frank, my speedometer is at 60 when im driving about 55 on gps speed. So technically, im doing the right thing.

                        Overtaking is legal. You can overtake a 55km at 60km an hour. Ive tested it before.

                        I really dont give a rats ass about the person behind me if im being honest

                          @easternculture: You’re a hazard on the road. You’re not going to lose your licence doing less than 10km/h over the limit and even if you did you’d be eligible for an extraordinary licence if you really depend on it for work. Get a grip and do the speed limit.

                          • @cheekymonkey97: Driving 60 speedometer … if i didnt have a GPS speed window on my phone i wouldnt know i am driving 55.

                            So how am i a hazard now?

                            You’re not going to lose your licence doing less than 10km/h over the limit

                            So is that what you do cause obviously it seems like it which makes you the hazard, not me.

                            Not cool encouraging people to drive over the limit thats enforcable. Its people like you, that we have more mobile speed cameras on the street.

                            Next thing you probably will says its ok to text message when driving if there in no one infront of you lol

                            Just shows how ignorant you are to the road rules and safety.

                • +1

                  @easternculture: I'm the other way around. My speedo compared to GPS is always <6-7km/h less than indicated.

                  • @Maz78: Yeh its weird. Ive tested GPS speed on many cars. Some are over, some are under and some are spot on.

                    Im attributing this to other factors. Road condition, tyre conditon, weather, friction on road, etc. I guess its simple physics.

                    It makes sense when your driving on cruise control, that the speed varies by +/- 5 km on different roads

              • @drumondo: you’re saying odometer reading error is there but, as per ADR, it’s always higher than actual - so, with 10% error, displayed 60 may be actually 52.6?

                • -2

                  @AlexF: Up to 10% error, higher or lower.
                  When im driving 60 (car odometer) my gps based shows 54.
                  In the other car, when im driving 60 (car odometer), my gps based odometer shows 64.

                  Its also impossible to get actual reading, as there are many variable, like road conditions, tyres, friction, etc. So enforcing the exact speed limit would be unfair for drivers and it would be easy to challenge fines in court if you keep a digital record of your gps data

                  • +2

                    @easternculture: no, its not 10% higher or lower - speedos are normally calibrated to always display slightly slower than the speed you are actually doing because the rules mean they must not inform the driver they are going slower than they actually are for obvious safety reasons, but can acknowledging it is impossible for it to be perfect particularly as tyres wear down, they can be out in the other direction and show you are going faster than reality

                    "The Australian Design Rules require that a vehicle's speedo must not indicate a speed less than the vehicle's true speed or a speed greater than the vehicle's true speed by an amount more than 10 per cent plus 4 km/h. This means that the vehicle's true speed must not be higher than the speed indicated by the speedo."

                    @easternculture:

                    Up to 10% error, higher or lower.

                    This is incorrect - the speedo is only allowed to over-read, not under-read.
                    If you're going at 50k, the speedo can legally show 55k - but it cannot show 49k.

                    The 10% accuracy requirement is only in one direction.

                    In the other car, when im driving 60 (car odometer), my gps based odometer shows 64

                    Then something is wrong. The simplest explanation is usually incorrect tyre sizes - do they match exactly the size on the door card ?

                • @AlexF: That's correct.

            • +3

              @easternculture: In Victoria it's 2km/h taken off your alleged speed up to 100km/h, any over 100km/h it's 2% but they round it up to taking 3km/h off the alleged speed.
              It used to be 3km/h off and 3% but Victoria been Victoria, says it all.
              And as you say with the odometers and the 10% variance, sadly it doesn't work viseversa in Victoria. As for the other states, I'm unsure on specifics but I'm pretty sure it's a similar circumstance.

              • +3

                @ConsumerAffairs: Can vouch what you say here. I've had the same discussion with the VicPol trying to get out of a speeding fine.. I eventually did because they got my name and details incorrect in the first place and there's actually no legal person called the name they got from the rental company. LOL.

                BTW.. the real limit for pretty much every state - should be measured using a in car GPS which IS accurate to <1% of the real speed you are doing (assuming you have at least 8 satellite nodes locked on). Cops will basically use this plus generally 2% on top leniency. Most car speedo's are by law to be under reporting what the real speed is - just check this using the car speedo vs what is read from the GPS and you'll have a general idea of how much it is under reporting by (eg. 100km/h = ~95km/h, 120km/h = ~113km/h in real terms). All cars are slightly different in value.

                • @bchliu: Ill have to confirm this for NSW with my cop friend when i see him in the gym next time unless we have any police employee ozbargainers that can confirm

            • @easternculture: The cop must have a good laugh when he asks you "why were you driving at 120kph sir"!

            • @easternculture: err… no

        • +3

          WA bend your plate upwards and there’s no restrictions..

        • but the cameras can't get you in frame when you do 250+

          • @Sinnerator: Apparently they can according to RTA
            They even say that redlight/speed cameras can get you even when blocked by bigger vehicles (trucks, buses)

            • @easternculture: RTA is long dead.. So is RMS. It's just TfNSW now. (I'm ex-RMS/TfNSW so yeah).
              The reason about the "can still get you" is that they take 5 frames of you when it happens to see if they can nab you between the cars. The cameras don't have X-Ray information to peer through 12m of truck. lol.

              • @bchliu: Though the 5 frames will be in the flash period.
                So if you have a long trailer blocking the camera, its impossible to get you.

        • +2

          Its a shame yoi can only do 110 max in a freeway

          There are public track days on Philips island (and motor race tracks in most states for that matter).

        • Nah, you can do MUCH MUCH faster than that. It only becomes a problem if you're either caught or killed. The skill is in avoiding either of those things happening.

        • +1

          Now, with a 500rwkw+ car, I'm the last to be sighting speed limit laws and morals, but…
          The old 10% rule is long gone. Some departments or individuals may still allow this leniency, but that would be completely discretional on a case-by-case basis.
          However, with Police dept budgets (not quotas) being relatively high, I doubt many would let you off too lightly nowadays. (And as a local Snr Sgt once said to our club, "I don't pay my guys 6 figure salaries just to drive around in cars all day.")

          As mentioned by others re:ADRs, from new, an odometer must read higher than the physical speed of the vehicle. This means the old "my speedo is out" argument is deemed inconsequential. And in fact, it's now negligible as you've just admitted to knowingly drive an unroadworthy vehicle.

          The other thing to mention, and as I said, I'm definitely not the right person to champion this principle… but it is a speed LIMIT. A limit, meaning 'a point or level beyond which something does not or may not extend or pass'.
          You don't poor a drink to the 'limit' of a cup. You recognise and acknowledge its maximum, and poor to an extent that's adequate and manageable.

          Anyway, I'm putting my moral compass back in its lockbox and burying it! 🤣

          • @Snoop: (For NSW) - official position from RMS/Transport for NSW is that you aren't allowed a single km/h over the speed limit. There is no "leniency" in that department since they are the legislative branch. Every single km/h to them (from a safety perspective) puts people at risk and is the difference between life and death at times (I know well since I got hit by a car as a pedestrian and if it did any quicker, would have been much more serious in injury or have died).

            Enforcement is going to be different however and will need to take in more of the circumstances and situations within the legal limits of what was legislated by TfNSW.

            • @bchliu: Correct.
              When you dispute a fine, they look at legislation and very hard to ask for leniency unless you have some type of written proof.

              However, a magistrate is more lenient if you are willing to challenge in court.
              I know people that have been let off for going beteeen 3 and 15km over the limit. You have to show genuine remorse though.

  • +6

    Not my words, but seems.mostly legit

    Famous high-performance motorcycle, introduced in '99. Known for its incredible top speed, acceleration, power. Awesome features and specs.

    Performance: The Hayabusa is known for its top-tier performance. It has a 1340cc in-line 4-cylinder engine that offers a phenomenal blend of performance and reliability. This translates into excellent acceleration, with the motorcycle being able to hit incredibly high speeds in a very short time.

    Innovation: Suzuki has continually improved the Hayabusa's technology throughout its generations. The Gen III Hayabusa has an array of high-tech features including advanced electronics, rider aids such as multiple riding modes, ABS, traction control, and more.

    Quality: The Hayabusa is built to last. Its build quality and durability are exceptional. This is not a bike that will require frequent or expensive repairs, provided it is properly maintained.

    Iconic Status: The Hayabusa is one of the most recognized motorcycles in the world. Its unique styling and performance reputation give it a sort of celebrity status among motorcycle enthusiasts. Owning a Hayabusa is not just about the ride, it's about being part of a legacy.

    Resale Value: Given its iconic status and durable build, Hayabusa tends to retain its value well. If you ever decide to sell your Hayabusa, you can expect to get a fair price for it.

    So this is great value for money, making it a bargain for those interested in a high-performance, iconic motorcycle. Otherwise, not for most of us. Also, bought 6.
