Ah what is the world coming to!

by **iCER** » April 23rd, 2012, 7:24 pm

the device doesnt have a play back system / tv screen. It is all recorded on a SD card. You take the sd card out and play it on a computer that has the software to load it.

Lolzerz... Even if they think you've recently done a skid they can confiscate it and have the contents of the SD card checked for evidence of said skid...and then they'd have a nice time/date/place and footage of every dumb thing you've done in the car since you fitted it.

Hence my initial comment that it's a fucking good way to get done for dangerous driving.

by **justa6** » April 23rd, 2012, 9:47 pm

use to be drugs/weapons being thrown from the window when being chased.

Now your gonna have to eat an SD card while pulling over!

haha thats gold parfrey!

by **iCER** » April 24th, 2012, 5:14 pm

just confirmed with a lawyer, they cannot take the SD card without a warrant (ie crusing around/booze bus/random pull over) unless caught in the act of hooning and they seize the car. But even then, id obviously slip the car out in my pants or something. not rocket science. Not to worry anyway as i dont do anything bad. Just incase something happens ... you know...

I've had a quick look through Vic legislation but it's all over the shop and very hard to find the bits I want.

This is a section from the QLD "Police Powers and Responsibilites Act 2000". I'd be very surprised if victoria didn't have something very similar, or possibly more invasive, given how scummy your politicians are.

31 Searching vehicles without warrant

(1) A police officer who reasonably suspects any of the
prescribed circumstances for searching a vehicle without a
warrant exist may, without warrant, do any of the following—
(a) stop a vehicle;
(b) detain a vehicle and the occupants of the vehicle;
(c) search a vehicle and anything in it for anything relevant
to the circumstances for which the vehicle and its
occupants are detained.
(2) Also, a police officer may stop, detain and search a vehicle
and anything in it if the police officer reasonably suspects—
(a) the vehicle is being used unlawfully; or
(b) a person in the vehicle may be arrested without warrant
under section 365 or under a warrant under the
Corrective Services Act 2006.
(3) If the driver or a passenger in the vehicle is arrested for an
offence involving something the police officer may search for
under this part without a warrant, a police officer may also
detain the vehicle and anyone in it and search the vehicle and
anything in it.
(4) If it is impracticable to search for a thing that may be
concealed in a vehicle at the place where the vehicle is
stopped, the police officer may take the vehicle to a place with
appropriate facilities for searching the vehicle and search the
vehicle at that place.
(5) The police officer may seize all or part of a thing—
(a) that may provide evidence of the commission of an
offence; or
(b) that the person intends to use to cause harm to himself,
herself or someone else; or
(c) if section 32(b) applies, that is an antique firearm.
(6) Power under this section to search a vehicle includes power to
enter the vehicle, stay in it and re-enter it as often as necessary
to remove from it a thing seized under subsection (5).

Basically, in QLD, if a cop sees you do a skid (or reasonably believes you've just done one or something similarly fun) they can stop you, and search your car for anything they think may provide evidence of an offence (like the camera...).

Just saying...

by **t1MMy** » April 24th, 2012, 11:03 pm

QLD have WAY better powers to search a car than Victoria. However in Victoria we don't need to see anyone commit any driving offence and can simply pull someone over for routine checks. From there we can "shortcut" ways into searching the vehicle.

Power to intercept.

(1) Section 59(5) of the Road Safet Act provides the power for a member of the police force to intercept a motor vehicle on a highway.

59(5) - A member of the police force may give such reasonable directions to a person driving or in charge of a motor vehicle on a highway as are, in the opinion of that member, necessary -

(a) for carrying into execution the provisions of this Act or the regulations; or
(b) for the purposes of any traffic survey being carried out in the vicinity of the highway.

by **OMY-747** » April 26th, 2012, 5:32 pm

My mate has that one from Aldi. You can mute the sound on them to so you only film the video without noise to save space, and not need to listen to yourself or people in the car being douchebags. He only uses his for 4wding.

by **bentls** » April 26th, 2012, 5:42 pm

the aldi ones apparently are the same as the ebay ones at half the price and not too bad but not as good as a gopro hd hero 2

yeah the one i got is mad. tested it out on friday night, and it worked well when i needed it. Can see what it was meant to see! So thumbs up on it.

They do group buys too. -20% for order over 5 so someone organise it if they want it. We getting em for work cars. They one i posted not the Aldi one.

And i didnt go out that friday timmy, i was informed about the big springy junction closure. There is a reason why my car doesn't come out when blitz's are done lol. I heard 28 hwy patrol cars were out and the operation was going down till 4am! I just stayed home palaying WoW (Warcraft) lol.

by **vegabass** » April 30th, 2012, 1:15 pm

I had a browse through his 350add clips and he has everything from OBD2 on screen display to having 4 cameras linked in. I guess he can do what ever you want. Its a tuff GTS BTW.

Need to paint that reinforcement/bracket behind the grill

by **Mr. CVE** » June 9th, 2012, 8:09 am

Saw these pics last week, they look okay.
For the photoshoot all 4 wheels would have been nice.

You still looking for a C63 ??
I am seriously considering a ML63, best of both worlds, can tow and still go well !

by **iCER** » June 9th, 2012, 2:08 pm

I dont have the 2 other rims either way. Personal preference. I prefer car at shoots or shows etc as it is driven every day.

i actually saw this white c63 the other week with black wheels but wanted 120k for it. still trying to nail one down for under 100k that has what im after.

Great idea wombi. Now what colour? Black? Still will stand out. Maybe a flat black.

needs to have big black rims, car in white and less then 20,000km per year from manufactured. Not to mention a SEDAN. And yes i am keeping an eye on carsales/tradingpost and all the rest.

by **AaronEF8** » June 9th, 2012, 5:39 pm

Spending 100k on a car, the budget can't stretch $3k further for some new rims? Righteo.

Don't care about any options?
