Losing my Driving Licence - Victoria Australia
Caught going 118 km/ph in a 80km/ph zone, thats 73mph in a 50mph zone. Australia remains a laughing stock to the rest of the world with its speed limits, it's roads arent any safer and the police force are the literal definition of a Mafia. Modern day police work at its finest.

I was once asked by a cop, "Do you have any reason for speeding?", to which I replied, "Yes. I didn't see you. If you weren't hiding I wouldn't have sped!" They just laughed. Then fined me.

Australia is great in a way. They pull you over for going over speed limit, they explain to you why and when the infringement happened and they even show you the actual gun ?!!! In the United States that’s unheard of, you don’t have any interaction with the police officer they just come over grab your license and then they give you a ticket. Most of the time people are left wondering whether or not they actually did something wrong. I just had a case where the officer claimed I was going 88mph in a 55 zone and he didn’t want to show me the gun so I brought to court and left with no ticket.

Roads are too crappy and quality of drivers is appalling
Okay so as a road safety engineer, I can explain that those barriers along the sides of the road and the centre line are tested for cars to collide into and absorb impact by deflecting without causing serious injury or death at certain tested speeds. For you as a motorcyclist, good luck even surviving when you slide into the exposed stems of the barrier at 30km/h. While the speed limit may not always feel right and often times be way too low (I agree this should be a 100km/h zone), I wouldn't take risks in case road conditions change. Generally there is a reason speed limits are changing along highways at certain sections.

Rubbish the current speeds on the road in Australia are ridicules wat too slow ..Cars, bikes tyres brakes, suspensions have been improved to an unbelievable performance level sine the "old" days add that to todays sophisticated electronic traction control and anti lock brakes ...compared to the old lump of a motorcyle and cars if anything the speeds on highways should be increased like they have done in some European countries... I had been driving since 1986 and ridding since 1990 my first big bike was a Katana which when it came on the market was a "great handling " bike well maybe compared to the rest of the crap but still was a heavy lump of dog turd with 19 inch narrow front tire and brakes that were a joke by todays standar's. While living in Europe few years ago I felt very comfortable and SAFE ridding at double the national 110 km/h *legally riding ZX12R with my wife on the back , at over 200 klicks felt so easy the bike top speed is over 300 km/h so for it was a leisure a walk in a park ... I would never want to do that on a Katana ...mind you it would have done that ...don't ask me how I know that :P . But the technology was not up to the scratch yet The problem on the Aussie roads is not the speed but the idiots and drunks and junkies behind the controls who pull out in front and verge onto wrong side of the road.... nothing will change that , The rest is just money grab revenue for the thieving gummiment.

Haven’t read all the comments but just in case no one has said it, I have got off a couple times because police don’t always have a radar on you and sometimes will pull you over cause they can see you speeding but haven’t got it on the radar and they will usually always ask that same question “any reason you where speeding” or they will ask if you know why they pulled you over, all they need is for you to admit yourself that you where speeding an that will stand in court if you challenge it that’s also why they say you can look at the radar that pretty much means they def got you but never admit to it just play dumb and if they give you a ticket ask to see the radar if they haven’t already asked if you want to look at it. Had a cop stand on the side of the road with me for about a good 10 mins trying to get me to admit to speeding but I just stayed respectful and acted dumb like I had no idea why he pulled me over and he eventually left just giving me a warning, I don’t condone speeding but if that tip helps someone out of a ticket well better in your pocket than there’s

England is 50km/h over (30mph) and you lose your licence. Anything less than this is usually 3 points on your licence. You’re allowed 12 points within a year or so I believe and then you lose your licence as well.
Years ago back in England I got caught doing 98mph in a 70, so nearly 160kmh in a 110. I'm in New zealand now, here that would have been instant loss of license, but back there I got the minimum fine and 3 points on my license. Oz is even worse than nz from what I've seen.

bruh. here in poland where i live, you are only suspended when exceeding the limit x2 but ONLY in cities. so for example you have to go 100+ in 50kph zone (that's the most common speed limit in cities). there have to be a sign that there will be a camera, and you can exceed the limit by 10kph, they only can give you a ticket if you go 10+ faster. i think some of this laws are the same in whole European Union. BUT WHEN you actually get suspended, you have to take your driving exam again. here we have these special highway units called 'Speeds', they don't even bother stopping you when your going around 160s in 140 zones, you have to go well over 200 for them to bother stopping you in the middle of the highway. speeding on highways is commonly accepted here

Ah shit. Sorry mate. I got pulled up in Russel Street last week; filtering but improper pass of a vehicle. Police were on foot and directed me off the road. The Senior Sergeant was polite and respectful, as was I, but I was a bit freaked out at the start as he started his engagement with, " my body cam is on. Anything you say may be used in a court of law". (Shit) What followed was a respectful chat and a caution. You handled that very well. Stirling job.
Traffic cops have the right of discretion, the three actions they can choose between are #1 - A summons to court, #2 - A fine, #3 - A warning. I always ask them if how they feel about just giving me a warning. You would be surprised how reminding them of these 3 choices often works out in your favour. Once I was tagged doing 180 in a 100 zone, the copper wrote it down to the minimum due to our conversation. There are some good cops out there (not many).

Losing your license over something minor like that is crazy. Once in the middle east I got a fine for driving 50-75 kms over speed limit, the limit was 120kph. It was something like 135 Australian dollars. No demerits or anything.
I think the government should build special lanes for all those ones wanting to do 80 on an highway. And normal lanes for people that’s is actually able to ride / drive at higher speeds.

Considering the road was empty the cop could have used his discretion to bump the speed 10-15km/h down so he could at least keep his license. I mean, the only life he was really risking was his own.

Which country is that? I'm very curious what the rate of accidents and fatalities is.
My guess is that the speed limit is 80 KPH due to the lanes merging there. Apart from that, it seems like a decent road where 118 wouldn't be that excessive (i.e. 100 zone after the merge). Pretty easy to crawl over on a bike. Even my bike can break 100 in first (so I've been told officer). I find it amusing that they bring out the drug and alcohol test when they've already got you for speeding. Just want to pin a few more things on to you. Ps I got done for doing 2 KPH over (speed van was wrong and said 7 ???) . I actually went down with a digital tape measure (laser) but was still 2 KPH over so had done the crime. Do the time. I was hoping I'd find it as the speed limit then I would have taken it to court.

As someone who's ridden in every state in Australia and might enjoy a spirited ride in the right conditions. 47.5% over the speed limit on that road is just asking for it.
1. Australian roads are some of the safest in the world, thanks to these strict road laws. 2. You were going 38KMPH over the speed limit, on a motorcycle, which means you're particularly at risk of serious harm of death if you were to have crashed or been hit. 3. "Australia remains a laughing stock to the rest of the world with its speed limits" pretty average speed limits too be fair, only the USA have speed limits above 110KMPH which is the maximum here (idk if there are any 120kmph zones still around). Japan, Korea and most of Europe have similar speed limits and regulation so I would say it's not a "laughing stock" 4. "police force are the literal definition of a Mafia" If they pulled you over for no reason (doesn't happen often) and forced you to pay a fine for a crime you didn't commit, then sure, maybe. However not only were you clearly guilty of speeding, but you also have the option for an independent court to overturn the fine if you think it is unfair, by appealing it. But you broke your legal requirement to stay within the legal limit so, pretty much any court would side with police, and so they should.

It's not a free way, it's just dual carriageway. There could be roads coming onto it or some other reason why the speed slows down there.
That's a really dangerous spot there, there are side streets and a school so waiting there to catch speeders is entirely understandable and justified. Besides it's a good place to raise revenue.
Another 7km/h and your bike wouldve been put on the back of a flatbed truck
Fast forward to 2024, where the roads are so run down now, and full of potholes, that you'd be lucky to go 100km/h without wiping out your front end......
Do the crime, do the time. It's that easy. That officer couldn't have been more professional and decent with you. He wasn't rude or anything so 'mafia' is a bit rich. 38kmph over any limit is inexcusable and I know of at least two motorcyclists who both lost their lives out on the road.

Road design in australia is pathetic. if you want people to drive 60 then there are ways to design the road that encourage people to do that such as planting trees beside the road or making the lanes fewer and thinner. Unfortunately usually that isnt even considered when designing roads in australia.
The first two speeding tickets I got were twenty minutes apart, both picked up by cameras. One I was going about 65kph in a 60, the other I was going about 107 in a 100. Both were 240 dollars each, totaling $480. Absolutely ridiculous for a first time offence, and an "offence" that 90% of drivers do all the time unless they know there's a speed camera. And yes, I'm in Australia.
