Hi
Our car's horn goes but my partner hasn't yet put the new button on (new wheel and button) so the wires are sort of hanging out but not long enough to hinder the driving.
He was fined today for a faulty horn!!! He tooted it for the cop but he just gave him the fine anyway - $75AU!!!
Is that possible? Or should we dispute it?

ALTHOUGH THE OFFICER HAS EVERY RIGHT TO CITE YOU, THE EFFECT THAT THE DEVICE WAS OPERATIONAL IS WHAT COUNTS?
HOW OPERATIONAL IS A POINT OF CONTENTION? HOW LONG HAD THE HORN BEEN UNDER DISREPAIR? WAS IT FUNCTIONAL IF DRIVING AND HAD TO BE UTILIZED? THESE ARE QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR SELF AND THEN IF YOU CAN ANSWER THEM AND FEEL THE TICKET WAS UNJUST AND THE HORN IS REPAIRED THEN SHOW THE COURT THE TICKET AND ASK WHY? IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY THE JUDGE OR A 6 PERSON JURY TRIAL.
