justcar and their roadworth policy !!

[r34_skyline]

any1 know if justcar's roadworthy policy applies throughout Aus or just with the state's laws ?

we all know each state has different rules about car mods etc. but i wanted to know if justcar's roadworthy policy was different in every state. or do justcar extract all of the state's law and use them as a whole.

coz i rang up justcar letting them know that i've applied stickers onto my car. the customer service rep said the stickers must be roadworthy etc otherwise i will not be payed in the event of a claim. i kinda freaked out from here since i never knew stickers "may" be seen as a defect.

also, any1 here have vicroad's technical support email or ph no. ? please dont give me the one off the site as ive used it many times to ask questions and none of the responses they gave me answered my question directly.

any help would be good.

Stickers that are on the car and non reflective and don't obscure vision would be ok.

I think they're kinda disclaiming themselves agains't idiots who put fat ass'ed ye olde english "HONDA" and "HOLDEN" stickers on their cars that cover half the windshield.

mmm ok. ive seen quite a few skylines here with the silver NISMO sticker across the windscreen. mmm, is that counted as a defect ?

If it's not against the law, then it should be.

Reflective stickers can be a real distraction when they reflect the sun into your face.

It's no different to driving behind those morons who think it's a good idea to hang those crystal orb things off their rear view mirror...... ever been stuck in traffic behind someone who has one of those?

If you're compelled to rice your car, do it in a way that doesn't affect other road users around you... sometimes all you need is common sense.

when ever i called Justcars to ask question's i always get different answears from different reps. it might be a good idea to call the second time "even thought it's annoying that you have to wait" to ask the same question and you'll see what i mean, specially if there new on there job.

One thing to note as I have friends working in insurance is that if you enquire about something for you car in the past, they will have the information in front of them on the screen.

eg. rang on friday.. can I have these 18" wheels on my car? can I have a learner driver drive it?

Claim on sunday... I crashed my car...

The first thing they'll check in detail is the wheels, and who was driving
