Yearly Rego Inspections Coming.......

[Cubes]

9krpm...

I feel you should change your avtar...

o many times I have to hit the re-circ button but still get hit with the stench of a smokey old Laser, Camira.

[9krpm]

You are deluded or must have been brainwashed by the government

What proportion or kind of cars less than 5 years or even 10years old are defectable? Why would one waste time inspecting these cars? Oh I forgot the majority of cars on the road are in this category......and they have owners with large tax rebates.

Those bombs on the streets are the fault of the police system. The police should be active and take these cars off the road rather than handballing it to some one else.

Who said the new system is a better system. Anyone can bribe their inspectors to give them a paper work. How easy is it for the inspector to say that the car broke down after they did the inspection job?

You should look at thing from all different aspects.

Do you think Regency will be closed after the new scheme?

Do you think you will be able to breath easier?

Do you think transfer of registration between states will be easier

Good luck with your thinking.

What ever it is, I am too busy to take my car to service let alone take my car for inspection. The government is dreaming. Anyhow, I should be able to get a exemption for this because of my job. Hey I don't even have to be a juror let alone take my car for some idiot to inspect.

[Steve]

Deluded? Oh thanks for clearing that up for me. Makes life so much easier when those that dont lend to your negative view on life are delude eh?

And just to make it clearer for you, the govt may be dreaming if they think you are going to taking your car to get it inspected? bwahaha - YOU are dreaming if you think you will still be driving if you dont - FACT

[9krpm]

We'll wait and see Steve.

If they want to do it they will have to come to my work place to do it

[Steve]

So who is supposed to be deluded, or am I missing the clause that states 'all will have to do this execept 9krpm'?

Your right we will see.

[9krpm]

No delusion here buddy.

How do you feel if after a car accident you have to wait for the doctor to come back from "a car inspection" to save your life.

That will be the fact if I have to take my car for inspection.

Good luck if you think I drive an unworthy road car and you don't mind waiting on your death pan for the doctor who should obey the LAW (aka BS).

"When ever I see a old bomb bouncing around", I feel sorry for the public and the owner of that car. Is the car bouncing around because of the shock or is it the condition of the road? Is the owner driving that car because he/she can't afford a better car because of EXCESSIVE CAR TAX

The government need to give some to gain some but they are only interest in their pay rise and luxurious lifestyles from taxpayer money.

Why not impose lower car tax and quarterly ROAD CONDITION inspection? I will pay extra for that!!!

No offense here Steve but I don't see any good in the new law.

It probably go ahead because majority of the population has IQ of less than 100 and don't think too hard about these issues.

What PROVEN EVIDENCE does the government provide that the new scheme will be better?

about the same as I would feel if he was taking a dump at the time - thats why they have more than one doctor working in hospitals at a time. So that they can deal with emergencies - have you ever heard of someone dying in hospital because the doctor was having a crap. How will this be different.

Please, lets get back to reality.

[9krpm]

Have you heard of doctor shortage in the public system ?

Have you heard of the waiting time in most public system?

Have you heard of recent pay raise the government offered to the doctor in the public system? 7% over 2 years when indexation is around 4% per year?

Have you heard of the amount of hours most doctors in the public system work?

Good luck if you think doctors have time to do this silly thing. What reality are you talking about? The one the government portrait or the one that they have tried to blanket for many years?

[Steve]

Yes I have, my brother is a GP - I am all to aware of the shortages.

Like I said, lets get back to reality - you are now talking about the negative impact a yearly rego inspection will have on the public health system.

If it makes you feel better, this will be my last post in response to you - so feel free to rant on in peace, I think it is going beyond a joke now.

[hippy]

nah keep going .. its entertaining

my 1.5 cents ...

i wouldn't be going to a doctor that was driving a rust bucket ..

he's obviously not doing something right. .

I must say.

I can't disagree with you. But what can we do?!?! Jack shit.. This is why I tend to push these thoughts towards the back of my mind and concentrate on my car.

[hippy]

joel .. u are just sooo deeep man!!!

[Cubes]

At work.. I get a lot of Cab drivers coming in.

90% of them think exactly like 9krpm and stress out about it so damn much as well.

[TIMMMAYYY]

cab drivers suck ass. I hate those wankers.

everyone has to make a living though

[Cubes]

Serving the suckers every all night long as they put petti in you begin to judge them by race unfortunately, its bad, but a certain race do tend to be rather rude and simply arrogant.

Yeah bloody skippys hehehe....

Think its quite human to judge groups of people. Most people do it, just wont admit to it because its not politically correct. Even if not by race, you will always feel more comfortable with people that you can relate to or have something in common with.

having said that, its good that you can recognise it as a undesireable trait:) eh skip?

Cab drivers with IQ of around 160 :D

That's a reassuring national standard

Joel, you can let a lot of BS politics go to the back of your mind but this law will cause a lot of difficulty for car enthusiasts. It will raise a lot of revenue for the governments. Imagine if you have 2-3 cars in your household. That's would average to 2-3 extra sickies per year per house hold. What would that do to the economy? What would that do to the OZ dollar? What would your Jap/USA mods cost then? Oh I forgot, I might charge a bigger gap for my consult and if you happen to get sick often....then

What is the new law for one should ask?

If it's to remove old bombs off the road then, it't the police job. That's what our tax money are used for isn't it?

If this is the only primary goal then it should only be applies to 15 or more years old vehicles.

Syd/Melb have used this "new scheme". Is there any proven beneficial stat? It's damn easy to do the number crunching isn't it? How come NSW and VIC still have the highest incidence and PREVALENCE of car accident mortality/morbidity? Even before our speed reduction. (I wont even touch on the 50kph issue here either)

We have to look at all the issues involve in this case, good or bad, and unite to express our opinions to the governing body. This is a free country with voting rights. The poloticians are elected and paid by us. We do have the power to make them work for us.

Just a little short busrt of frustration and my $0.02

I blame it on the fact that my rear tyres are balded.....need to burn more cash and donate more $$$ to the government

[Bl4cK32]

dude, give it a rest, or you'll be needing those gp's for the high blood pressure.

ps - doesnt nsw & vic have the highest population per state which would explain "highest mortality/morbidity"

sounds like u should run for parliament instead of trying to convince us....or would that make u a $$$ hungry polly as well?

[9krpm]

BTW

incidence = number of accident

PREVALENCE = incidence / population

I am a car enthusiast. I hate politics and stupid revenue raising laws that treat the general population like a bunch of brainless ppl.

Yeah I need a new set of tyres for the rear and a round of good golf before my BP boils

[Bl4cK32]

keep the talk to cars then, not on politics......my $0.40 (call someone who cares)

WHATEVERRRR
