Default Warning to all those with dash screens

Hey all,

sunday night heading out to dinner and got pulled over at one of those massive drug & grog testing trucks on springy rd. which i have no problem with at all.
all clear from the 1st cop and then a couple of others are having a quick look over the car which is fine also. (im sitting on g-grid 2 so thick rubber they barely needed to look)

then another cop tells me to move to the side and has a looky inside the car.

he misses the fact theres no doorhandles inside
he misses the fact the steering wheel has no padding
he misses the fact theres no shifter....its a flat head screw driver.
he misses the fact wiring is all over the place
he misses the fact im using racing seats with no engineers cert.

and then he says.....btw you arent allowed those screens in the dash.
i asked why (just interested i wasnt rude about it)
and he said you just arent allowed them so ill let you go but next time ill be more serious.
so i said its got a motion sensor so it wont display video when driving (cough bullshit cough) and he said ohh ok..enjoy you night.

ive looked over vic roads and they dont mention anything nor do they mention SAT NAVS which have coloured and moving screens. so i just dont know anymore.

my advice to all is fold the screen up or turn off when you get pulled over.

thought id let you guys know.
brad
