Pete have you removed the radio yet? You don't need it for drive on and off the trailer :P.

I thought if the Police were called out, they had to charge someone? My mum was charged for neg driving when some random crazy guy in a disability scooter drove/rode across a busy roundabout and crashed into the rear guard of my mum's old car.

No there were no pedestrian crossings/footpaths there.

I believe that is only if the ambulance service is called in a takes someone to hospital. Something like that in Victoria anyway.

An interesting thing also, police in nsw do not respond to car crashes unless someone is hurt.

My Aunty got t-boned by a p plater and there was a cop sitting there at the intersection when it happened. They did attend mind you (would look pretty bad just to rubberneck as you drove past) but they told my aunty they don't attend minor accidents anymore and to make sure you get a the insurance details. They hopped back in their car abd drove off. This p plater got nothing. But the funny thing is, is that if that p plater ran that red light that infront of the cop and DIDN'T clean my Aunty up... worst prick in the world

If you are being intimidated by occupant/s in the other car, lie down on the side of the road and have someone call authorities. And remember the registration plate of the other car.

Once a call is responded to, an Event Number is mandatory.

Yeah. As far as I'm aware, you can call an ambulance and not even pay. Thats what (most of us here) are paying $600 a year for (ctp)

If an ambulance os called, pretty sure bet that a cop will be there to check it out too.

In my case police were called because the road was blocked on a blind corner. Fark me, you should have seen us all run when this truck come around the bend and locked up. He ended up about a meter from the front of my wreck, so i had 4 cops, and 2 firetrucks. Pretty colours. Its like a disco when it happens in the dark!

I think we are all missing the point.... With the massive insurance payout you will now get, when are you buying a GTR?

    • 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.
