How do you claim the record and not incriminate yourself?

A few people in Australia have been fined for uploading a photo they took while driving to social media. One was a politician who was stopped at some road works. He uploaded it to facebook and some people complained he broke the law. So he went to a police station voluntarily and I guess made a statement and was issued a fine. (You can't touch your phone even if stationary, or in a drive through, car park, etc)




In the past, a team would wait until the statue of limitations had lapsed before publishing their evidence.

In many states, the statute of limitations clock stops running when you leave the state, so you could find the expiry date still hasn't arrived if you come back.
