Got a letter in the mail today

ACCUMULATION OF DEMERIT POINTS - NOTICE TO CHOOSE

Now I knew I'd been done for speeding twice in the last tweleve months, the letter confirmed that and stated I have lost a total of 7 points. I thought we had 12 on your opens in QLD????

So I have to choose suspension of license for three months or a good driving behaviour period of 1 year. The latter has a catch that If I'm done for anything at all in that year I loose my license for 6 months...argh crap I don't know if I have that much self control :x

3 points, 4 points and 3 points all for speeding with the cruise control on form the old telstar. horrible invention is cruise control.

Prank, if you had to do it buddy, you would. otherwise its jail (if you have a previous criminal record) and 1 year suspension.

megs, i'm with you. 3 months is ok but 6... hell no!

as most of you know i've got 'T minus 43 days' to go and it hasn't been all that bad. i must say these forums are keeping me sane and that's no joke!

also, i've learned more about cars, and have realised how much i appreciate them, in the last month than i would have ever in my life.

so...

thanks to everyone that's kept me sane. :wink:

I'm with Prank - I couldn't go 3 months without driving :)

take the 1 year good behaviour, and just try not to speed! All other traffic fines should be easy to avoid, like running red lights/not indicating, etcetc. Speeding's the only hard one.

qld's and people in tweed heads forget that cars come with indicators at all, damn its annoying.. specially on a round about where u pull infront of them and they r turning with no indicator..

on the other point... u should have 12 points.. so u probably picked up another 5 from somewhere else... if it were me, i would take the 12months as i havent had a speeding ticket since november 2000 and everywhere i go i sit atleast 15km over the limit.. i drive to southport every day of the week for uni (its 100km total there and back) for the last 3 months and drive at 130 the whole way and still havent got a ticket.. also drove from qld to melb and back without a ticket.. i guess im just lucky... the main thing u gotta do is be sensible in the 50/60km areas.. and the 80;s.. thats where u r most likely to get done.

      I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?

      You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though.

      Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?

      It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!

      As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
