WEBVTT - MINI! How Brit escaped a speeding fine after being recognised from the bachelor 🚗

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to know.

0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Now, look, it's a safe it's a safe space here,

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:06.880
<v Speaker 2>no judgment. Have either of you ever copped a fine

0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:09.600
<v Speaker 2>for speeding or for going through a red light? Obviously

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:11.920
<v Speaker 2>by accident. Never, no one's doing this stuff on purpose,

0:00:11.920 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 2>I would hope. I think, have you ever gotten a misdemeanor?

0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:16.240
<v Speaker 3>I think that's the biggest lie I've ever said, Laura,

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:18.479
<v Speaker 3>like that this is a safe space and no judgment.

0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm full of tell me what you did and then

0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I will judge you for it. But I want to know.

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yes, definitely, Yeah. No, I've had my fair share

0:00:26.000 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 4>of fines. I got caught on one of those mobile phone.

0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:35.199
<v Speaker 1>No, that's terrible in the midst. That's that's done.

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 4>I did try to dispute it and say that I

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 4>was actually holding like a cheese and crackers and I'm

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:42.559
<v Speaker 4>sorry that I Yes, I.

0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 3>Have been done for speeding once before. Yes, I accidentally

0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:48.519
<v Speaker 3>ran a red light myself. Now, look, no one likes

0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.879
<v Speaker 3>receiving fines. It is That's the letter no one ever

0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:52.840
<v Speaker 3>wants to get in the mail.

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:56.720
<v Speaker 2>In Australia's like especially, fines are so expensive, Like if

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:58.279
<v Speaker 2>you get done for a parking fine, you get done

0:00:58.280 --> 0:00:59.200
<v Speaker 2>for a speeding fine.

0:00:59.320 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 4>It's the point.

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a bad but usually it's the money because it's

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:05.319
<v Speaker 2>so much money here, right, Yes, you know they say

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:10.679
<v Speaker 2>it's revenue raising. Imagine getting a misdemeanor. Imagine speeding and

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 2>getting up one day, going to your letterbox and opening

0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:18.760
<v Speaker 2>the mail and you've received a fine. Now consider the

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.920
<v Speaker 2>absolute horror that you would feel when you see the

0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:27.399
<v Speaker 2>fine and that fine is one point four million US dollars.

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:27.959
<v Speaker 4>What's happening.

0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 2>It's happened to you, No, it didn't happen to me.

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.480
<v Speaker 2>There was a guy in the States. Basically he was

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 2>driving and he was considerably speeding, like he was at

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 2>the high end of speeding. He was going one hundred

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 2>and forty four kilometers an hour in an eighty or

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.319
<v Speaker 2>ninety kilometer like he was.

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:44.479
<v Speaker 1>That's a million dollar fine if I ever heard one.

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:46.120
<v Speaker 1>That's someone who knows that they're speeding.

0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 2>That is purposeful speeding, right, he is absolutely fanging it

0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 2>down a freeway where he shouldn't be. So he woke

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 2>up the next day and he received a fine and

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 2>the fine was two point two million Australian dollars.

0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:58.920
<v Speaker 4>What's a typo that can't be true. That can't be real.

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, he called up to try and contest the fine.

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 2>Surely this cannot be real, that one slip.

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 3>You don't have a spare like two million cash laying

0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:08.639
<v Speaker 3>around for a fine.

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:10.239
<v Speaker 2>And so he gets on the phone and this is

0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 2>what he has. No, sir, you either pay the amount

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 2>of money on the ticket or you have to come

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 2>to court on December the twenty first at one thirty pm.

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 4>It's a scam that he's trying to be scammed. No,

0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 4>he was not.

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Now he ended up going to court to try and

0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>to test the ticket because surely it can't be right. Now. Look,

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 2>it does turn out that maybe there was a little

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.480
<v Speaker 2>bit of a glitch. I don't know exactly how much

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 2>he was supposed to be fine, but it was an

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:34.520
<v Speaker 2>auto generated amount and so he received it as an error.

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 2>But imagine if you didn't. I mean, you're always going

0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:37.280
<v Speaker 2>to go to court.

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 1>No one's going to phone fine like that. The wife's like, man,

0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:44.880
<v Speaker 1>you've got to stop doing this, like we're running our

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:45.640
<v Speaker 1>cass that.

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.079
<v Speaker 4>This is a twelve million dollars in fines this month alone.

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.680
<v Speaker 3>Funny when I got my speeding finals on the highway

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 3>and I was speeding. I noticed that when I saw

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:57.359
<v Speaker 3>the policeman pull out, but I wasn't speeding by much, right,

0:02:57.520 --> 0:02:59.639
<v Speaker 3>Like I think it's like, what's the one seven common

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 3>is over?

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Yea.

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, so he pulled me over and I had tinted

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 3>windows or something. I was in some car. I wasn't mine.

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:09.519
<v Speaker 3>I was in someone else's car. Anyway, he pulled over.

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 3>It was full American cop you know where they're like

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 3>why in the window down in America.

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>No, it's in Australia. But it was like an American

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>cop vibe, you know when they're really.

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:18.640
<v Speaker 3>Serious and this is a big man and he's like

0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 3>license please, And I was like yes, officer, gave it

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:23.560
<v Speaker 3>to him. And he looked at me and then looked

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.560
<v Speaker 3>at the license and he goes, you do know you

0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 3>were speeding there?

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>And I said yes.

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:29.680
<v Speaker 3>He goes, give me a minute, stormed off and I

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.640
<v Speaker 3>was like, oh, I'm done for Then in I can

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:33.560
<v Speaker 3>see the revision mirror.

0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Another cop gets out of the car.

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:37.320
<v Speaker 4>Oh double double whemy two of them.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:41.280

<v Speaker 3>me and said, just so you know, I would have

0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 3>chosen you on the Bachelor.

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Off you go, he felt.

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:57.320
<v Speaker 3>So he recognized me from getting dumped and then let

0:03:57.320 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 3>me let me go as if like the world owned

0:03:59.920 --> 0:04:00.240
<v Speaker 3>me one.

0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:01.839
<v Speaker 1>And this was like calm and he was like doing

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:03.000
<v Speaker 1>the right thing because I got dumped.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so I got off course of that.

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 2>And people say it doesn't pay to be dumped, but

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 2>it truly does. The indid you as solidary when you

0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:10.040

<v Speaker 4>The circle have children in the car listening. That's a

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 4>great moral of the story. Don't speech, don't speak, l

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.320
<v Speaker 4>and go on reality TV. All right,
