D WTF??

depends on the fine, if it was for going 40Km/hr over the limit then you should get the fine! the Officer will have notepad and pen so use written communication.

Well for a start you shouldnt be DRIVING if you cant hear or the batteries r flat i mean whats stopping you from going to a shop for a battery ?

I would say for starters...that he shouldn't be driving as he's not in a fit state...along the same lines as being intoxicated.

Hearing is a vital component of being able to drive safely as you need to hear what's going on around you.

I guess it just comes down too: time, place and circumstance.

He obviously 'copped' some caring officers by the sounds of it.

luke should the same apply for drivers with poor vision that forget their glasses?

Christ luke, you seem to have an awful lot of "friends" who live really bizarre lives

. I have lost track of how many different threads you've posted in, about your "friends" doing this or seeing that or hearing whatever

What a lucky guy to get his own personal police escort home just to get a new hearing aid battery. Luckily there was no crime happening in Perth at the time for our dedicated 'boys in blue' to provide such a courteous service.

BTW, what did the police stop him for in the first place

Speeding? Running a red light? Failure to indicate? or having his radio up too loud

My god i can't believe i've even bothered.....

You're right, I've got a deaf mate that come to think of it Luke's spelling does remind me of the way he speaks.

I dont think we should poke fun at him for having a hearing disability...

Thats not right...

Tendency to agree with you there, Turbo.... Nothing worse than not having one of the 5 senses. Another issue entirely separate from having a joke about what people post....
