Its just a winge board.

It encourages others to winge about others no matter how trivial the misdemeanor.

The people engaging in the winging are too legally nieve to realise that what they are doing is unlawful.

When it comes to criminal matters a person cannot be judged by the uninformed citizens and members of the public and this is what is occuring.

If I personally were to receive a complaint I do not think I would be very happy.

The fact that they will remove the comment once the person has found it (could be years) is a very small concilliation to my mind.

If someone were to have there career jepordised by the media obtaining and publishing this information (say a poitician for example) then this would be grossly unfair.

Stepping right off my box now ...

Mobiles is nothing, i like watching the plus size people that chow down on a "works" hamburger steering with their elbows. Although i dont stay all that long watching them, but a good laugh never the less, except when they get some beetroot fall out and then take elbows off to fish around seat to get it out, then eat it lol. peak hour traffic you can see some sites.

Sure, there is no chance that Joe Average is going to be allowed to testify that you were exceeding the limit by 41km/h and not 39km/h. But.... and this is a big but. The law is being changed and this year citizens will be allowed, if not encouraged, to photograph and vidoe tape reckless and dangerous acts perpetrated by members of the public under the traffic act. So, if your foot slips of the heavy twin plate clutch in your hard corey GTS-T at a set of lights resulting in "excessive noise" or "reckless driving" and Joe Average had his camera on; that representation may be the basis of a complaint brought by the W.A. Police under the traffic....Stand by as this turns to $hit while the Police attempt to prove your speed based on the distance travelled etc while the video expert rips up the video tapes quality, the operators competency etc etc

Nah get back on...Fight the Powa :P

Thats exactly the sort of direction Australian law is taking. We are running the risk of becoming a highly litiguous country which will increase costs of labour and make us even less competative to the likes of China and Japan and everthing will be eventually be made outside Australia. Just see how much the freway extension costs have blown out.

Before long we wont even be to legally able piss on the left hand wooden spoke rim (er tyre) without risk of a passer by filming it and claiming indecent exposure. Happened to a mate of mine but thats another story.

We gotta protect our freedom because if we go the direction of precedents set by US law we stand to loose a lot. eg Prohibition for one, three strikes and your out and capital punishment. Thats three pretty good reasons to look after what we got here in Australia. The power of a US highway trooper is also pretty crazy.

There are some other benefits of US law. The right to shoot and kill an intruder and the right to possession of handguns?? Something to aim for I reckon.

The government had to legislate in certain examples to prevent the law getting completely out of hand.

For example the incident where the dude succesfully sued the Waverely/Bondi beach council for negligence when he got his neck broken after being dumped by a wave.

Admittedly the beach signage was incorrect and life guards had flags in the wrong spot. There was also some contributory negiligence but I reckon you assume a lot when you decide to swim in the ocean. Strong rips and shark attacks are but two other risks you assume when jumping in the ocean. Hell you could even step on a needle on the way down to the water and get hepatitis B or somethinbg worse. You could also then try and sue the council for failing to see the risk of drug injectors who would concevably use the beach for this purpose. This just goes on and on and someone at the end of the day has gotta see sense.

Public liability duty of care claims went open slather for a while after this until legislation got through that put a cap on the limit of claims. This could have been a contibuting factor HIH going under.

If you drive on the road at speeds over 60km/h you run the chance of getting killed. Its an accepted risk.

Every tree, lamp post and concrete wall you pass is a fatality risk. The fact is the risk is very very low.

If I want to travel from Perth to Bunbury I dont want it to take 4 hrs. I accept the risk and travel at 100km/h and it takes 2 hours. Luckily 99% of people also see the same way.

Its the 1% of people that cause so much trouble for the rest. Usually the paranoid neurotic types that hate to see anyone else enjoying themselves. Dont get me wrong though, I am dead against individuals that have no respect for the safety of others. I have found these people to actually be quite rare (possibly through darwin awards) and more often than not do not drive performance cars.

If I see someone having a bit of harmles fun Im not going to dob them in or try to film them.

Enjoyment of life starts with not worrying about very very small probabilities.

      🚨 Need Advice! Overcharged for Engineering Report 🚨

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Well, in 2007 he must have been charging about $1800 an hour. He only looked at the car for 5 minutes. And another 4 to write the report wrong, and another minute to correct it. Mind you, this was for a car that was: Stock engine, fmic (hole in drivers guard), all alloy intake and custom air box, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, lowered, and a set of 17" Advans (255/40/17 rear and 235/45/17 front). It was nothing crazy. The blue slipper wanted the "hole in the guard" engineered. But that was because he got the shits that I wouldn't "relocate the battery from the boot, back to the factory position in the engine bay"... In an R33 GTST...     Also for emissions, E85, and don't go wild on timing. It's amazing how the closer you get ignition timing towards max torque, the last couple of degrees really throw NOx counts right up. And for the huge increase in emissions, it's only a small increase in torque.

      I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.

      From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
