    Victorian Imports Club Official Event #2

    in Archived Events

    Posted

    So does that mean nobody else can enter unlesss they are FINANCIAL Members of your club?

    At the moment, all you have to do to be a 'VIC member' is register at the forums. And additionally to enter your car to be eligible to win the Show and Shine, you have to pay $5 to the club.

    I say at the moment because we're hoping to have a paid membership option in the future, details are still being spec'd out though. :D

    Thanks for your interest!

    Impoundement Laws To Target Mobile Phone Use

    in Victoria

    Posted

    They would see it as operating a mobile phone, unless it is integrated with your car's stereo system.

    I don't think that they would have to try very hard to get you for that one.

    Yeah figured as much. I just have to keep listening when a crap song comes on, or change back to FM/CD. Don't want to get my P1s extended so I'll be good.

    I think this is the best news i've heard for ages about police etc. Every day I see someone weaving, 1/2 in their lane, almost into oncoming traffic etc.. So far, every time i've managed to get a look at the driver, it's someone holding a phone.

    Police focusing on this could really lead to an increase in road saftey. If you think you're safe to drive while using / looking at a phone (for calling / sms or music), you're a true wanker and I hope you get done!

    Yeah, well said. It's those same people that always 'forget' to take off from traffic lights, stall, take off slowly and change lanes without any indication.

    Impoundement Laws To Target Mobile Phone Use

    Hmm i initially thought the whole point of speaker function on mobiles was to allow people to talk whilst driving but have had a friend who copt a fine for holding the phone while on speaker. :blink:

    but phone impoundment is hilarious, soon changing songs whilst driving will get the head unit impounded ;)

    I think the law is that you are not allowed to touch the phone at all while driving. You need a handsfree thing that can automatically pick up the call with no pressing buttons. :)

    But I wonder what happens if you're using your phone as your music source, say for example an iPhone. Is that allowed?

    Stolen! Black 180sx

    in Victoria

    Posted

    Would be useful to see some pictures, and even the area it was stolen from.

    180s are hot and always catch my eye, I'll be looking regardless of it being stolen. :)

    Hope you get it back in one piece though mate.

    P-plate Turbo Exemption Info?

    in Victoria

    Posted

    Sorry benzino 33 i was refering to anyone who managed to obtain a exemption after the new laws came in.

    For those getting their Ps after 2007...

    I am pretty sure the only reason you would be allowed to drive a turbo Skyline on your Ps is if it is for work purposes, and that wouldn't include driving to work... As said, a mechanical job, or my friend who is an auto electrician and drives Ferraris, etc.. But I am under the impression that it would be only for client's cars and not your own... but that's not the issue here.

    I don't think it's as easy as getting a note from your parents saying you are allowed to drive it, or saying "Please Sir/Madam, May I drive my turbo Skyline because it is awesome and I love it?".

    That's why I'm sticking with my stock FWD Impreza until I'm off my Ps. Looong wait, but lets me save. :)
