  1. There are lawyers who only deal with police matters relating to traffic offenses. If you cant afford one to represent you, they offer you advice over the phone. you got nothing to lose. I know the feeling mate, all the best

  2. Any little piece of evidence will help in court. I had an insane run one night where i lost 18pts (12pts for running 4 red lights and 6pts for 45km/h over the limit) in one hit and im really ashamed of it. The police lawyer proposed 2 years license suspension plus my fines ( which added up to $2200) and a fine for negligence ( $2800). Anyway my argument was why would the police allow me to continue after the first one or even the second one or even the third red light. My lawyer said had the police done their job according to their protocols, i would have never have been in the court room and i would have learned my lesson from one red light fine. He argued police never wait for a criminal to finish his crime so why wait until im finished. I ended up just getting 6month suspension but all the fines.

    Anyway my point is, police make errors and the courts know that, all you have to do is forward the evidence and be remorseful.

    Good luck, hope all goes well

  3. The hilux have a pressure relief valve around the filter housing which are commonly known to block when the motor is neglected. Before you get carried away with anything, you want to actually test to oil pressure at idle and f/t to determine you have issues. Are you using the correct oil grade?
