Driving home from work and get a yellow sticker!!!

Clarky · 04-02-2008, 03:49

Well bugger me dead if i didnt leave work early due to me bein tired, thought i would do the rite thing and stay off the forklift and come home to get some sleep... And low and behold i pull out of the driveway at work and take off only to have a cop car drive past me, do a u-turn and pull me up down the road and give me a yellow sticker for (wait for this) my god damn fog lights, which i may add they didnt put on the notice!!

They said they are illegal to have on here in WA, i argued the point... What they did get me for was bein

1; Too low
2; Too loud
3; My exhaust is rubbing on my bumper
4; My bloody sticker on the back window

Boy am i not happy, i was asked what was the reason for havin my fog lights on... I said they a factory option and are always on at night.
Ok so they are apparently illegal to have in this state, i can deal with that..
I can also deal with the fact that my car is too low, and possibly too loud, what i cant deal with is the fact i now have to remove the sticker from my window and that they bloody well picked on the exhaust rubbing on the bumper, which it isnt, and who the bloody hell cares anyways it my ute!!!

So i am askinga favour to anyone as i now only have 10 days to clear it, can anyone help me with getting my car over the pits, i will change my suspension and put my muffler back in but i cant deal with this crap and just want it sorted, please PM me if you can help at all...

And any feed back would be good as well....
As much as the people in this state are awesome i think the laws are totally screwed compared to back east where i will be goin when i have done what i came here to do...
Oh and if anyone can also help out with getting me a job up north then that would be great also...

Thanks for reading/listening to my whinge but i had to get it out.

Cheers guys

Hey clarky cant help you out with the car situation but i may be able to help with the job situation if its the mines u wanted to go to. Also depends on how far north you are wanting to go. When your on next let me know ill put you in contact with someone. Nat

mickey · 04-02-2008, 12:44

Clarky · 04-02-2008, 12:55

Would prefer to head to the mines and not fussed how far, i been ringing round but as yet nothin come back so just trying every avenue possible now.. Kind a got stuck in a rut so to speak where i am workin now and need to get out, the sooner the better, late april is ultimately the best as i have a court case back in Melbourne i have to attend

Sharpy · 04-02-2008, 18:40

What did the sticker say that the cop didnt like??

Clarky · 04-02-2008, 21:33

All the sticker said was

CLARKY
"Dreams were won and lost under the Southern Cross"

I dont know i have 2 wing mirrors so dont need the back window, i know this but they obviously didnt care bout that.

I think they were on a shift change so needed to fill the quota...

yea luv thoes yellow stickers "not" had a few in da past but im naughty i rip them off! lol

My young fella just got done a couple of days before Australia day. He got done for having his Forester too low and his window tint was too dark.
So he had to get them off as he was comeing home for the weekend and to make matter worse while he was getting things fixed some how he disconnected his radio.
And that needed a special cd to make it play again and we couldn't find it and the holes that fitted it wouldn't help. So if you are in Sunraysia ask me and I'll tell you how not to go to when you want a radio fitted. As they want your maony then you can leave.
But that was his little drama.
