Really? I read 4 or 6 points....

Nah thats only in the eastern states. They were going to introduce a similar rule here where you start with 3 demerits+ 3 more each year you drive till you have the full 12,along with the other learner/p plate changes in july 2008 but then decided against it. Though it is likely it will be introduced sometime in the future

I'm going up to Exmouth with my parents during the Christmas break & originally I was going to take my car but after careful consideration I have decided to take the Camry instead :down:

Also isn't it in the Eastern States where a Red P-plater can lose their license straight away from just 1 speeding fine (even if its just <10km/h over)...

Perth has the worst drivers in the known universe. There should be a blitz on keeping left and not acting like an arse hat. Keep left, be courteous.

Yes, this does have a PR component to it but statistically there were a higher number of fatal during the Christmas period. It would be nice if all the money the gubernment made from their speed cameras went to road safety, training, road maintenance and creation...and not that clown Dorrington.

Happy Kwanza...now shut up and eat your yams. :down:

I like 'Stupid Tax'

Taxing the stupid is the best way to raise money for all the additional costs the taxpayer incurs throughout the year because of the Stupid person. Stupid People need to be at least partially self funded is my view.

Double fines help raise important revenue for things like increased medical funding for hospitals to treat the people eating the small desicant packages in electrical goods and paying for the printed warning on the packages that say "do not eat".

You see unlike you and me the Stupid persons brain has trouble with understanding plainly stated warnings like road signs. For example when a Stupid person sees a speed limit sign, the Stupid person's brain starts to become inflamed causing pain and discomfort. The Stupid person reacts by suddenly saying stupid things, popping any collar on an article of clothing they or someone nearby may be wearing and ,if handy, eating any nearby desicant packet or item with 'do not eat' written on it. But, in most motor vehicles manufacturers have not been using desicant packets for many years (choking a stuid person is the best way to remove the seizure and it was included for drivers as a complimentary feature in the past as a part of first aid kits to shut down Stupid Person passengers in such an event). As a result, the stupid person then makes gurgling noises and loses further control of their already limited thinking capacity. Sometimes causing them to drive in a manner considered illegal and or dangerous.

Also, for this reason gently removing the stupid peoples licences via double points is one humane way of getting them into a safer and less costly lifestyle for the tax payer.

I love revenue raising speed cameras, traffic light cameras and double fines. Naturally stupid people don't because they aren't able to understand road rules and laws and due to brain malfunctions can't control a motor vehicle or open a new DVD player in a safe way. So lets support the governments move to have them become more self funded and get them off the road. It's for the good of all :down:

Speaking of stupid people, f**king P plater bitch on the freeway this morning looked over to her blind spot.. probably saw me.. and kept coming over into my lane anyway. Stupid people wear my brake pads down more :down:

Just think,

as a policeman you could have given her double demerits and a double fine for dangerous driving. The double points may have been enough to remove her licence completely as well. I think dangerous driving is a 6 pointer normally? so that would make it 12 and goodnight.

The double fines handed out mean less pressure to increase your taxes.

So you have more money in the pocket thanks to less stupid people on the road wasting your brakes and less tax increases.

I was a vulnerable little victim on a bike, with a bigger safety risk too *sob sob*

Your point reminds me of the graffiti signs on the trains, something like "your train fares would be a lot cheaper if we did not have to clean up this graffiti so often"

I've worked in the Middle East and they are far worse...they are very reckless, but having said that they are predicable in being reckless and not giving any courtesy etc. In Perth though people can't merge I have noticed...it's all hesitancy and unpredictability; nobody seems to know what to do?

Fines don't double though...that should also double IMHO.

Although, from experience the worse drivers don't pay their fines anyway. I know some people with over $25,000 in unpaid fines and they're still driving, go go gadget Centrepay!

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
