i think the stats are over 50% of pedestrian deaths have alchohol in their system.  

sympathy for this: 0%

You're right, if you're majorly mashed and step out in front of a car you're askin for trouble. BUT

Does that 50% include people who have had 2 light beers in a 3 hour period?? Still no sympathy?? Of those people with alcohol in their system, how many were hit by speeding vehicles? Making a judgement on simple bullshit stats like the one above does not mean anything.

I would say no sympathy for the driver who hits the pedestrian while speeding.

Interesting subject!

Have you guys seen the way the police and ambulances fly down a very crowded chapel st on a friday or saturday night? Very stupid indeed - its only a matter of time before they hit [or worse kill] someone imo. A marked car did it tonight, he was cruising down the middle of the road with lights & siren on doing approx 50/60 km/h then he plants the foot and the V8 engine came alive - I witnessed several pedestrians run for cover, very silly indeed.

Also moments later an unmarked police car [silver VT / VX commodore V8] pulled up a camry [right in front of where I was sitting] for something and blocked half the traffic from getting past - even the tram driver was dinging his bell. I forgot to mention the best part, in the 10-15mins he was "doing his job" his flashing lights were not even on! [did have hazards flashing though - not good enough I say] And the same cop actually shoved his way through the traffic to do a u-turn without using his flashing lights - and would you believe people actually moved for him [remember an unmarked car with no visual sign of being Police, could have been a security guard that wears similar shirt etc imo] - a Black supra even reversed to get out of his way ~ I wouldnt have. AFAIK they must have their lights ON and most cases siren too if in pursuit, let alone a street FULL of cars & people traffic. After u-turn was completed then he baulk around 2 cars like some slalom event THEN finally hits the flashing lights and siren and punches it into hyperspeed! - again not good enough imo.

Hopefully the authorities are reading THIS post!

Yes, there is still more [this one is fairly minor but for the ricers out there, this may get your back up]. A marked Divisional van indicating to turn left from a side st on to chapel was actually emmitting a WHITE colored indicator from the rear! Surely WHITE is only allowed for reverse lights at the back of a car? It looked as thought the lens was broken - thus an un-roadworthy vehicle hmm

All of this over just one latte :D

*shrugs*

Yes, shocking. I say we gather a register of license plates, times, places, and the events we see. Maybe reporting by reporting them something will be done. I know they protect their own but still, those higher up wouldn't like to see their officers doing this sort of thing.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
