In SA we can get done for unsecured load..
Fishing rods and Esky in the boat constitute unsecured - they had a field day around here...

No response to my letter.
Last week I went to town so visited the cop shop with my letter and the Infringment Notice in hand. asked to see the OIC Road Policing Unit as advised in the notice. The receptionist photocopied the docs and went out the back. Came back after 5 mins or so and said she could not find anyone to help me. She said she would handle it.
Later that week my wife got a phone call from someone who said he was from the Police and wanted to talk to me. I was out but he would not tell my wife what it was about or give a return phone number. Caller ID was blocked. Not heard any more since. Very strange behaviour.

The 28 days will be up next week and I will know if I have to go to court or not I guess.

Not strange. Under privacy act they may only speak to you about the matter.

It will be interesting to see how this ends. As the cops stuffed it up you should win this one, too late for them to change the charge now.
Good luck
Chris

Give the Admin lady you spoke to a call for an update.

Finally. Letter in mail yesterday dated 20th April.

Quote
"I acknowledge receipt of your correspondence concerning the issue of the above Infringement Notice, and wish to advise that investigations will be conducted into this matter.

No action need be taken to pay the penalty associated with this Notice, until you receive further advice.

Yours faithfully


A/INSPECTOR"


Well , might be good news

Would be even better if it would say 'unless' instead of until. .W.

Keith you better watch out they don't start picking on you.
