The laws created to deal with a (very) few high profile cases have become just a tool for the police that they can apply at their discretion - end of arguement.
After that the burdon of proof is reversed and $$ roll in.
Have never heard of any reprimand being handed out for the overzealous application of this law and I think that it was written with that intention.
I'm unimpressed with legislation and its going to result in some of the kids running instead rather than give up their ride - the consequences of which are predicably going to be injured bystander and this is unlikely to be a softening of the policing.
