Q. Am I likely to get off a speeding charge if I can prove that my car's speedo was in error?

Q. Do courts take into account a prior drink driving record and does it have any appreciable effect on the sentence handed down?
A. In NSW a prior drink driving offence within a period of five years has an appreciable effect on the sentence imposed by any court. For a low range PCA for a first offender there is an automatic minimum disqualification period of three months apart from the question of fines or imprisonment.

Q. I was recently at a sporting event and my conduct was a bit untidy. As a result I said some derogatory things about one of the teams playing and unfortunately I was sitting amongst a lot of their supporters. Apparently they called the police. Whilst I was standing up cheering I felt an arm on my shoulder which I attempted to shrug off. The next thing I knew I was being wrestled to the ground by police and taken to a nearby police station where I was subsequently charged. The charges included - resisting arrest and striking a policeman whilst on duty. Is this serious?
