An Australian slang term for a vehicle compliance station owned by a state authority. The term "pits" comes from the pit you drive your
car over for the inspection to take place. You'll usually get sent here if a you act like a
dickhead to the cop that has pulled you over and your
car has obvious defects (i.e. too low, too loud, etc...)
Jimmy: "hey did you hear John was being a smart
arse when he got
done by the cops"
Barry: "ah fuck was he driving his S15"
Jimmy: "yeah they sent him straight to the pits"
