SPEEDING TICKETS AVERTED

If it’s got wheels, and it's in Queensland, it’s legal:

Thousands of people have rushed to register their golf buggies, tractors and ride-on lawn mowers so they can legally drive them on Queensland roads.

More than 7000 vehicles were granted registration in the first month of the new conditional system, which began on May 1. Previously most were barred or exempt from registration.

George Jones would approve.

Are there little dark offices where gangs of government trolls think up new ways to extort money from the taxpayer?
