Hey guys. Just wondering if its possible to check online how many demerit points you currently have on your license if your living in QLD? I know you can do it on the RTA website but I couldnt find it on the Queensland Transport site. Also if you cant do it online, how do you check? -------------------- .: RaVeR :.

So you would have 6 points to last you from the 19th of Feb 2007 till you got your original 3 points that you lost on the 2nd of December 2009. Spot on |

Does the rule still apply if you pay your fine by cheque and you write more than the actual amount needed to be paid QLD Transport sends you a cheque back for the amount they owe you and if you do not cash that cheque points are not taken away because the transaction is not complete? |

Red light cameras work on the principle that when the light goes red a sensor underneath the white line is activated, and it will take two photos one second apart if you cross the line. The second photo is to confirm you went through the intersection, and didn't just stop a little too late. So therefore if you had crossed the line before the light turned red, you should be safe. Moral of the story though, if you can safely stop on amber, do so! ROCK ON R~R |

Maybe the moral of the story should be not to do it at a intersection monitored by a red light camera? ROCK ON R~R |
