they would never let the networks here in qld show the denmark add.

if ppl r soooo offended by using red pens imagine the shit fight that would follow after seeing all those accidents on tv again and again and again.

The pinky one is nsw rta im pretty sure, those are vic tac ads, there is a couple of worse ones like when a chick gets thrown through a windscreen and another where a car gets rapped around a tree but i couldnt find those.

Dont know why they stopped using them.

Because if everyone stopped speeding they wouldn't have enough revenue for the government.

..... :D .... thats a shock. they should of used that in schools. graphic contents always hits home. makes people really think about draggin the next car they see. or goin sideways around a corners, who know's whats around there. bring on granny driving

its mostly about pedestrians not paying attention, car accidents while speeding and not speeding kill a few hundred a year ,im not sure on the exact numbers but its definately way under 1000.

in sydney the peak hour afternoon news updates always has a "Pedestrian down". Every single day, thats one city alone. If somebody looked into it i recon their is more careless pedestrian deaths than car accident deaths (let alone speeding or p plater related deaths)

f**k those ads sent shivers down my spine. A real wake-up call that you always got to drive safe. I'm on my Red P's and have been driving like a granny as of late, but I used to drive a lot more erratically. Just watching these gives me that sinking feeling in your stomach - imagine in real life if it happened.

Stay safe on the roads!

I think these ads work more for people who have been in accidents as a result of being stupid and later realising that they could have killed someone or themselves.

I'm one of those people, and this collection of ads definitely hits home with me.

    • 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.
