being an L plater he should of had a fully licensed driver in the car with him (not to mention 4). Why does everyone blame the driver when its also the License Holders fault?? I understand this if there was no fully lincesed person in the car but the article doesnt clearly state this..

I would have thought that the full licence holder would have lost his/her's too.......

this is just another reason why australia should stop importing Falcons into the country. the government needs to take a good look at the motives behind these import laws and how importing Falcons and Commodores is hurting local australian businesses :headspin:

I've always ranted about this. When it's a Falcodore they mention how "the sedam in which they were travelling" but if it's Jap then it's "the high powered Nissan Skyline was driving at high speed" :)

Yep, spot on. I wonder if the meadia realises that the new commo has 190kw whereas an R33 has 185kw standard? Falcons are putting out 190kw also if I am correct. I have heard the high powered skyline bullsheet thing to many times.

      I strongly recommend anyone playing with cars chasing anything electric, get a basic understanding of using a DMM, and about 12V DC systems. They're REALLY easy, you only need to know V=IR and how to apply it, and you can work out what your readings should be doing. For a simple check on a light bulb, you're looking for 12V at the positive to the light, a near zero resistance to ground, and then for a small resistance across the globe when unplugged. If one of those values isn't right, you won't get what you need. Now if they're all okay,and you then plug the light in, and it still won't work, you now do a voltage check across the globe positive to negative. It should effectively read full battery voltage. If it's not, especially if it's quite low, the age old V=IR starts to be able to be thought about, you now know though, for the current flowing, there isn't much voltage for the given resistance, but the rest of that V has to be dropping somewhere else. So now do a voltage check from ground of globe, to ground of car, then do voltage check from positive of battery, to positive of the light connector. Things like a high resistance in a wire/join will start to "steal" voltage on you. So now step back through which ever wire, until you find the voltage drop is non existent, you're now before what ever is steal your voltage for example.   There's plenty of YouTube videos, but really worth understanding some V=IR, and doing some even theoretical numbers to start to understand it. Then you'll know what the DMM is telling you.

      Consider yourself lucky it was just a bulb
