As far as I am concerned Pusey is taking the rap for bad policing and bad laws that accommodate them.


10 months jail for speeding 45km/h over the limit?

Crikey I would have done a few life sentences by now....as I am sure others here would also do...
The week after highway patrol had someone pulled over on the Tullamarine Freeway, I think I have a photo of it in this thread

Look how narrow that emergency lane is and that van in front is in the left lane.

I agree with some of what you say Franco re how that law could be abused, and does seem odd that you can get time in the bin for being a ****, but (only my opinion) after reading from paragraph 13 onwards guy was more than just a bit of a ****, was a total ****, and I'm ok with him getting reamed over what is described in those sentencing remarks.

To abuse that law to try to put away people that are a nuisance to you, you'd need them to have done something more than just post a few silly comments on social media...you'd need them to equal or do worse than what is described from para13 on
