sad to hear about the chick (R.I.P) its not looking good for p plates with the new laws that thay wont to bring in. I think every one shod have to do a duefensive driveing cause befor thay get there p plates but we will probly never see that happen.

makes you think relly hard about speeding and runing from the cops.

I don;t know how long ago you're talking but I passed mine first go, 13 yeards ago.

I failed first go. However I have since driven more than 10 years with not a single prang. But the story on ACA the other night proves that you can get your license first go even with serious offenses, such as this chick that was going over the speed limit on one or two ocassions on the test. She even admitted that she shouldn't have been given her license.

as per Win News TV Report website

Police have released the name of the Rockhampton woman, killed yesterday morning in Maryborough.

Twenty-year-old Kristina Ann Tynan drowned after the car she was in crashed into a lagoon, after a short police chase.

Ms Tynan was a passenger in the car. The driver and another male passenger managed to escape.

The driver's been charged with dangerous driving causing death, callous disregard, and failure to remain at the scene of an accident.

Condolences to the girl and her family. Seems there were charged, some people may say thats not much but if the guys had any feelings for her they would have enough on their mind without harsher punishent. If they don't then yeah they deserve more. I know if i caused an accident and killed my wife I'd be devistated, particually if it was something as stupid as this.

The tester probably saw the halo above your head though Mud :)

It was obviously unwriten policy, so some would have dissagreed with it.

Condolances to the girl's family, but I have to question the reports into what the Police said they were doing. If he didn't stop at a RBT (even one being run by two officers in a squad car) how come they didn't communicate there pursuit to base? They said they didn't have time?? Crap! They were probably chasing this car for a few minutes and were enjoying the rush of the chase and when it went pear shaped they panicked and broadcast a story to cover their asses!! It was stupid to run, but you tend to run faster when chased!!

Oh yeah, got my licence from the local cops on Bribie Island who I had been driving home from parties at my parents house since I was forteen. I turned up for my test and they shit!!! Did it in a truck and passed after a 25 minute test that was very harsh as he made me do some hard stuff in the truck!!!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
