  1. Optically, fitting halogen globes into a HID headlamp and vice versa, is probably the worst thing to do to a headlamp's performance.

    So ironic that the ADR requires a car to effectively DOWNGRADE their headlights from HID to halogen to comply. Not only is the brightness less but the beam pattern would be destroyed too. How's that for road safety!

    :ermm:

  2. Do heed warning about jobs with demanding hours though...I have friends who work those sorts of hours and not only do these people turn into depressed jerk offs (who never take work off, thank you Kanye West), they lose their friends / social life and become a bacterial part of the company...without realising the transition they've made :(

    +1. My motto: Work to live, not live to work. No point earning 140K if you don't have time to enjoy life and the money. I settle for half that and have flexible work hours (to a degree) and time to see friends, family, rest, maintain numerous hobbies, and keep fit.

  3. “We’ll be keeping an eye out for large convoys of motorists,” Sgt Rust said, “especially with recent hoon activity at Mt Donna Buang and the Reefton Spur.”

    If I'm not mistaken they are probably referring to the bogans who go to those large carparks on the way up to Mt Donna Buang in their beaten up Utes, Falcodores, and 4WD and do donuts. We saw a whole gang of them the last time we were there in November when it was snowing.

  4. I wrote a letter and I had my fine reduced to a warning (no points deducted either). See the web page as linked above. You need to admit your fault, and refer to the fact that you have not had a fine or pardon within the last 3 years.

    When I was let off the 5kph fine I had not had a fine previously for over 5 years. The previous one was for 24kph over, and the one about a year before that was 11kph over.
