Are you sure he put in the claim himself / it wasn't in his parent's name? It just sounds hard to believe that insurance companies, somewhat reputable for trying to get out of claims, should process a claim with no attention paid to driver status...I wouldn't risk it myself because they had every legal right to refuse a payout on that claim. Shame he didn't get to learn his lesson.

It might of been in his parents name.... but I doubt it as he took out the loans n shit to buy the car, but I'm not 100% sure. Although when he totalled his car, cops were there in seconds and ambos, so they knew he was driving it...

Hmm... what i dont get is why the RTA let P plater's register turbo cars under their names when they know we cant drive them?? Beats me....

IMO !!! if the LAW really did not want "P-Platers" to drive around in turbo cars.... THEN WHY THE @#$$ LET US REGISTER IT UNDER OUR NAMES !!!

So when they pull you over they get extra revenue because you shouldn't be driving it.. DUH :(

I don't know if you have noticed or not but every government is a business, they don't give a f**k about the people living in the country.

+1, driving around with no insurance is just stupid.

Also when you pay for your road rego what does the 3rd party thing on that mean? Does it mean that they assume you have gotten 3rd party insurance when you pay for the road rego?

The 3rd party insurance premium on your registration covers personal injury to others/yourself in the event of an accident. It also covers damage to state/council owned property, e.g. roads and signs. But it doesn't cover privately owned property, e.g. cars and buildings.

LOL it took a couple of SMS to work this one out. All cool now though...I concede I forgot to add in the "lols" at the end of my comment to suggest it was a joke :(

Again, for the record people, the e-thug sounding post was a joke...I'm not an e-thug lol.

Like i said, it's for the cash. Why would they not let you register it? Knowing well and truly young males are genuinely stubborn and will go out and buy and drive one anyway? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Whatever helps you sleep at night 2pac :(

Because it's not illegal to have a high powered car registered under your name on your P plates. It is illegal to drive it though. You can pay all the bills for the car and have your 50 year old father driving the car legally.

Also, insurance will happily insure your vehicle...they're "assuming" you're not going to drive it. You'll be covered for theft, or a nominated full licence driver, and that's it. If you make a claim based on you actually driving and smashing the thing then you will be very lucky if they payout on the claim.

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
