  1. Fair enough but I have studied this at some length after my parents canary and I would not make a comment such as this without first getting my information correct I do understand your point but i think your more focused on width rather than rims ize.. 17" Clubsport rims (i believe) on the front of a car and 15" stockies on the back can not make for a safe drive especially at those speeds and especially over undulating roads... It was just a comment I know exactly what you are saying.... and my point was more aimed at the reasoning of even having stockies and rims on your car.. rather than the legalities themselves. And my fathers car a BA Fairmont was defected for having a spare on the officer said he had seen the car with the same wheel on for 4 consecutive days that it was a danger and the vehicle was given a minor defect notice (so clearly laws exist).. I cant help but thinking the officer may have been talking crap but if you can issue a defect notice then so be it..
  2. fair enough and ill agree with that but judging from those skids marks and that damage the person involved wasnt doing 100km/h thats for sure...my personal view is and that all it is that when im in charge of car Im not just responsible for my own life but responsible for the people in my car and other users of the road...and thats it.. as for what i've said start reading some editorials in the paper on this what i've wrote is just a fraction of what people have been saying (.eg the deserved it, racist comments etc. etc..) this an open forum and just like people expressing their condelences I'd like to express how I feel and would hope other people would too.. as i've said over and over my heart goes out to these families...but at the end of the day the choices you make effect both you and those around you...and this just highlights the perceptions of young drivers.
  3. theres two photos in the paper of the car both sides had stockies on...ok so your telling me you personally would be doing 160km/h down a main road with four friends in the car?? When you're in control of a vehicle your in control of your passangers lives and thats the way i see it, sorry if anyone has taken offense. and as to bagging about how it happened how its happened is people were doing excessive speeds thats it.. as to how and why we can only speculate but either way its not something that needs to be done on the road.. hopefully everyone learns from it speeding doesnt just effect you it effects those around you.. also you can expect today or tomorrow that a driver of a black vx commodore will be charged and have his vehicle confiscated in relation to this matter (and thats from a fairly reputable source).. do you know that having two different size rims on your car is illegal and unroadworthy (although hardly policed), do you know that having more than 2 different treads tyre types on you vehicle is illegal (although hardly policed)...?? Put fopur stockies on your car and make it legal. oh and just so you know before everyone says oh but what if you get a flat and use your spare (spares are usually the same size) and otherwise I can vouch for the fact that my parent car has had a canary slapped on it because it had 15" rims and a 14" spare.
  4. Simple don't get in the car net time.. Look my condolences go out to the families but lets be honest according to all reports the were exceeding the speed limits by around 50km/h no matter what happens at those speeds there's always a danger and anyone doing that with 4 other people in the car doesnt have any regard for human life.. Im not saying I havent sped before or anything like that but people need to learn... also i'm worried about other people whom in interviews stated the guy was a responsible driver who never sped and didnt do anything stupid.. then I ask why when you look at the photos of the crashed car are there stockies on the rear and rims on the front.. lets be honest theres only one reason anyone puts stockies on a car (except for a flat) and it's burnouts no responsible driver would ever be driving around with stockies on the rear. (and yes thats speculation but we all know its probably the truth) People need to learn and police need to crack down on those driving with different size tyres, or different types of tyres on the car this only encourages foolish behaviour amongst friends and groups of people and should be a practice that is cracked down on as it is not only dangerous (bald tyres, uneven size rims etc) is encourages other kinds of hoon behaviour... As stated above my condolences to the family but hopefully scores of people will learn from such a tragedy although I think not.. for most young p plate drivers as we all once were. once your in a car your invincible.
