Depending on the DUI reading, the licence can be suspended on the spot,and your not allowed back in the car,someone has to come get it
Done twice ,same offence DUI in the same day "Your a bloody idiot"
They will again loose the licence,go for a work order,licence release,pay off the fines at a buck a week or so, yep hardly an offence is it .....
The whole system is a crok
No matter what your fines are for what offence paying a buck or two a week thru SPER is hardly a reason to make people slow down,even some judges think that's a joke

So how should it work? Get a fine, then get a discount because you had to pay a fine?
