CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

So here is one ... Even to overtake, there is never permission to speed .. Limits are in place for a reason ... You speed, you take the risk of being caught ...

It is not a case of Grrrrrr to the technology, but more should be Grrrrrr to yourself for going over the limit... I have lost my licence due to speeding before, but was never upset in the fact that there is technology to get caught, but more that I was dumb enough to break the speed limit, for an instant dismissal... Better to be caught for that, then taking someones life...

Tough break, though ...


Well duhh obvioulsy i should of been speeding, but i only over took the massive truck full of cars because i was going 10ks under, i was choking on the fumes from the truck, and i now have a fear of sitting behind trucks as a few weeks ago a truck dropped a massive rubber thingoff the back and it slammed into my car wrecking the fron flipped up and nearly landed on my windscreen we were doing 100ks so i was pretty freaked out

im old enough to know right from wrong, yes i was speeding but i had a reason to overtake
Your clearly not old enough to take responsibility. Yes, we all speed, but we can admit that we shouldn't have and it was wrong. We don't try to justify it and say that we 'had a reason to overtake' because, there is never a good enough reason. We do it, it's wrong, simple. Get caught, it's your own fault, simple.
WTF i nevcer said im not taking responsibility for speeding...is everyone so judgmental on here? everyone makes mistakes, this is mine get over it
Buddy I'm not having a go. Like I said, everyone does it, and it's a bitch getting caught, but if you do, it's your fault, and theres no point taking your anger out on anything or anyone other than yourself.

The way your last post was worded came across as 'But I had good reason to speed, so I wasn't in the wrong'. No one ever has good reason to speed, unless perhaps you are being chased by a psychopath....there was no excuse for you doing it, you did it cos you made the decision that despite the potential consequences, you would do it, and now your facing those consequences. If that's not what you were trying to say, then ok, that's just how it came across, and if it offended you, I'm sorry.

Sucks, but such is life, that's all I'm trying to say.

And by the way, I'm not old you fool!! However, I work in legal, and see people try to talk their way out of responsibility all the time, so tend to not have a great tolerance with such things haha, my bad...

I got caught by a camera doing 80 in a 60 zone once. I was lucky though, turns out the camera had been disconnected and I never received a fine. Perhaps luck will be on your side and you will find a way out :P

I'm sorry, I'm not taking sides or anything, but you make it sound like overtaking is bad :?
Just saying, that might be used against you :)

Despite what someone does or claims to not do, why do people feel compelled to make these posts?

Sorry, but I have never seen any different in any forum I've ever been on where someone has posted up exactly this.

why?
