interesting read

 

One word Bruce: synopsis! :D

 

Nice read... so far!

Thanks for the link.

Cheers,

Great read. You gotta like a bloke who stands on his principles...

 

I think the large majority of automotive enthusists are already aware that the so called "speeding kills" campaing is pretty much proproganda.
The question is, what can we do about it?? It's similiar to how the gov has just finished the cross city tunnel in Sydney. They've closed of numerous roads to encourgage peopple to use the new tollway.. but it costs $8ish to use it.. No one likes it and knows it's a farce..
but what can we do about it..
In reality, we all choose to live in this country and thus we must accept what rules and reg the gov imposes.. If we don't like it.. then we can choose to live elsewhere.

 

exactly

 

Well, you guys do insist on living in the DSPRNSW (Democratic Socialist People's Republic of NSW)

 

NO, thats the biggest bunch of BS i have heard all day. This country happens to be a democracy, thus we the people run the country and make the rules. As so called motoring enthusiasts i would expect such issues to be high on your agenda when voting.

This Australian attitude of lets just bend over and take it pisses me off. I would expect you guys to be a little more concerned over such issues, especially when the article clearly points out the illegal practices the government is using against motorists to raise revenue.


PS: If you don't like the cross city tunnel there is something you can do about it.......don't use it. Its must be clearly very dangerous anyway considering it opened with speed cameras from day one.

 

No, i live in a democratic country where everyone is entitled to their say and vote. The whole point is that if you shut up and dont complain then they believe that what they are doing is right and will continue. If enough people stood up like this guy and proved scientifically that its all BS then maybe they will back down.

All those who voted for Carr's curs have no right to speak here.

You get the govt you deserve.

 

On the same note, its no wonder we keep migrating up to QLD!

Andrew

 

FFS, if they can get a Shooter's Party into state parliament, surely we can get a few motoring enthusiasts??

 

Stop coming up here we haven't got any water left and just as many speed cameras..

 

When i first came to Queensland ( Goldcoast )12 years ago the population was just 300,000 people now its 500,000 and rising as Adrian said stay at home :D we dont need more people crowding our coast

You must be working hard Lock... you actually fathered half of the GC population... j/k mate :p

 

LMAO Taka

Sorry Lock my wife was born there so my kids get a free visa ;-)

Timbo, Pauline Hanson has been a bit quiet lately, what do you reckon she would look like in an 8?

Andrew

 

Hehe, how did I know this would get into a state v state talkfest. :D

I can understand the Mexicans wanting to move there but any state that can produce Joh, Beattie, Pauline and Barnaby is, ahem, not on my list of places to live.

Always enjoy a good holiday when I get up there though.

 

As long as it's not MY car.....

 

C'mon Timbo - she's in your demographic isn't she?? :p :p :D :D

 

Please explain!

(there was only one answer to that, wasn't there :p )

 

I never said you were xenophobic!

However, you might want to get that rash sorted out... :p :D :D

 

oh but I am xenophobic :o

I have a real, dinky-di, down to earth morbid fear of photocopiers

They jam as soon as I am in the same room...or ask anything urgent to be photocopied by someone else.

Someonetold me I had bad karma with these things, but I told them there was *nothing* calm about me near a photocopier


:p

And thay ain't no rash...my neck's always been red

 

ROFL Timbo!

 

So what you're saying is that your're just another poor displaced Queenslander trying to find his way home?? :p :D
