You're going out with his daughter.

Think he's going to let you ride his motorbikes as well?

Haha fair call! Only some of his bikes I'll be allowed to ride, going up north to Kaitaia over new years and get to take out a few of his off-road 'Mad Max' beaters. He's got a 750cc 4 stroke dirt bike/burnout competition winner that I'm itching for a blast on! :P

All up was a $900 worth of fines. And not so much stupidity, just didn't travel far enough. It was an organized car event (council permission etc) in which legal and illegal cars are aloud to go. Unfortunately I got my car of the trailer about 100meters to early, you see I didn't realize I was on a public road, I thought I was in the grounds where the event was happening, so as you do, I backed my car off the trailer and didn't think twice about a seat belt because I was driving roughly 100meters to park my car, that's when the policeman flagged me to the side of the road where he informed me I was breaking the law. I tried explaining to him that it was a simple mistake on my behalf but even so, I still got the tickets. Its a purpose built track car, not made for the road thus why it was on a trailer going to a legal event. I'd hardly call myself a boyracer, I haven't done a skid on the roads or any other boyracer activities since I left high school lol.

Plausible...  either tough break and a shitty assed cop, or you looked like a trouble maker and didnt sound honest enough...

Its New Plymouth, cops here love giving out tickets & stickers. I don't think I look like a trouble maker, I was just there to enjoy the day and show of my car. I even showed him the trailer and ute that was used to get me there, but it wasn't enough. It's fine tho, tickets were paid the following day, wasn't money I would have liked to spend on tickets since it was money I was saving to buy more parts for my engine but hey, just keep on saving and be more careful next time I go to car events.

If it's an event you're going to, you should use a trailer anyway.

Any fine you get from taking your non street legal car onto the roads just because you want to take it somewhere for show is deserved tbh

Actually sounds a bit rough to me, the cop should have been all, 'oh ok fair mistake' if he was right there. He didn't drive it to the event or anything. Booking a race car right outside an event is just the work of a prick.

Pro-tip: A lot of dickhead cops get wood over having people kiss there arse, play along, be polite and apologetic (as much as it pains you) and they sometimes throw you some slack. The moment you lie or become rude, you're fucked.

Seems to be a part of their training these days, it was interesting enforcing law back to them :P

That counts what ever the situation and who evers involved, cop or no cop.

Maybe they've had problems with BR's taking cars off trailers and doing burnouts etc. outside the event so thats why their clamping down on it?
