<p>It is illegal to ride a skateboard on any road that has a marked centreline or has a speed limit of over 50kph. The Kuranda Range is a marked road and the speed limit is (I think) 100kph and in some parts 80kph with advisory speeds posted on some corners. I know the cops have been crawling all over that stretch of road for some time now. A couple of mates ran it a while ago, one on a luge one on a g-bike.

<p>The problem is the system is set up to protect police.<br/>It is cheaper to pay the fine then take it to court.<br/>And the cops get paid for the time in the court room.<br/>And this is why in this country, we have distain for our government and police, when in some other countries they are respected and cheered.</p>
