几个月前为了攒信用卡积分，第一次尝试用信用卡交vic road的年费，online操作不成功，打电话去银行让他们帮做也不行，然后就忘了！结果非常倒霉的被警察阿姨抓住，罚了$780！（年费也才700多！）
当时就交了罚款，因为不交钱就根本不让开车，于是在烈日之下把钱给了。
大概过了一个月，想想不如试着写个信去求求情（虽然大家都说没希望的，而且以前已经免过一次超速的）。anyway，就试试吧反正不用钱。
其实第一次online尝试给钱已经是过期了，unsuccessful payment是没有record的。好在老公打过电话给银行让他们做，于是我就跑去银行跟他们要了一封信，写着xxx 某年某日 tried to make the payment... 银行职员明显觉得我是吃饱了撑着耍他们的
然后我就写了封热情洋溢的信给警察叔叔，用我那蹩脚的英文...
一个月后，信回来了 审理中..................................
再一个月后，我连孩子都生好了！终于等到他们的回信，说这次就警告一下你，下不为例！！！呵呵，就酱紫把我那血汗钱给拿回来了哟。以下是我的求情信。
各位如果看得开心的话，请撒点分分，小女子谢过啦
Dear Sir/Madam
Re: Infringement Note: xxxxxxx
I am challenging your Infringement notice dated 26/09/2014 due to unregistered car. Please see below each individual point that I state and respond.
1. I DID TRIED TO PAY, TWICE.
I did try to pay on xx/xx, following the instruction on the Invoice, however the payments were unsuccessful. I tried twice, one was processed online by myself and another one was processed by staff of HSBC, however both of them were declined but no reason was provided. I can’t see any clear instruction in the Payment Invoice so I didn’t know how to pay by my Credit Card (also I don’t have time to keep on calling you as I work 5 days a week), that’s the main reason for the delay of payment.
2. THE PENALTY AMOUNT IS HUGH.
There’s not any wording in your Invoice that there would be a penalty fee charged if I pay the register fee after due date. I paid the previous bills on time every year, including the penalty (I paid it before the due date as well). I was unable to pay this year invoice because of your system issue and unclear instruction (as per the 1st point). It’s unjustifiable to charge me as high as $738 for the delay of payment.
3. I DID NOT POSE A DANGER TO THE OTHERS
The large sum demanded amounts to a penalty and/or is not an accurate reflection of any loss suffered so it is not a reasonable charge. Even for exceeding the speed limit for 10km, will only be charged less than $300. Obviously it’s disproportionate to charge more than 2 times of penalty for the delay of payment on the registration fee, from which I haven’t posed any danger to any other. Please provide a breakdown of how your demanded charge is calculated.
I’ve also attached the letter from HSBC bank to prove that I did try to pay the registration fee. It would be much appreciated for you to refund the $738 I have paid to you. If not, please provide details as per the 3rd point and also the information for me to raise this issue for further investigation.
Yours sincerely,
xxx

一开头就是“I am challenging your Infringement notice”， 楼主好样的
评论
里面最有力的一点就是lz有银行说你尝试付款的信件

楼主好样的

但其实那次尝试付款本来就已经过期了，就是说我在限期内根本没有尝试过交钱
兄弟，你就不能说我的信写得好吗？？

lz好样的！

感觉是警察叔叔很少碰到这样较真的，有些模拟两可的定义基于“疑点归于被告”原则就懒得深入调查就算啦！不过这个故事告诉我们什么都试试或许会有惊喜。

有才， 估计jcss看到第一句吓尿了。

难道我就不可以是做律师的吗? 哈哈哈哈

罚款多少先不说
付款系统跟你过不去也不说
你首先要知道的是，在VIC没交rego fee就是没交TAC
其次是没有rego上路，出什么事保险公司不cover

感动ing! 在一片吐糟声中终于有了了解我的人!

我当然知道，可交钱这事轮不到我管。我在家没钱没地位，只能写写信打打杂
评论
烤鸭还是有用滴

“breakdown”是会计专业词汇？
评论
看了第一句，感觉楼主屌炸天。
评论
挑战信吧，哈哈。上来就挑战一把，哈哈
要我写我开始可能会写申请把罚款waive掉，没有楼主那么猛。
