Hope you take on board that feedback from Aaron Klaver.

That guy is clearly on the ball, and VicRoads is clearly not with the typical text book responses that do nothing to work in the way of FIXING the very problem they have created.

In actual fact it's quite disgraceful the responses that have been given and as a VicRoads rep, if I were you - I'd be appalled.

Good post Aaron, good post Ash!

What was the goal of quiz that I just did and what was it meant to prove?

I mean seriously... What should you do in the event of an accident with a bike rider. 1. Get outta there. 2. Get Details. 3. Get Aggro.

Is part of my rego fee going towards paying for the creation of this quiz? *sigh*

Trust me guys NSW is no better Mark skaife actually had to defend somebody who said that young people should do defensive driver training or advanced driver training programs as apparently there is no conclusive evidence that this would help reduce the death toll of young drivers?? Well of course there is no evidence because they have never given it a go! What is there to lose??

This isn't the first we've heard from Vicroads on the forums, only for the rep not to return until their next pointless topic. How about instead of spruiking your rhetoric, you do the reading and pay attention to what's already been/being discussed on our forums (I don't have FB, can someone post this link on their wall?):

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/336284-compulsory-licence-re-testing/

Check that out and the support for it. And this on an import forum - we are the modern day James Deans...bitumen terrorists...the "worst" drivers on the road if you believe the TT/ACA hype. Along the lines of what Aaron is saying...the public want others and themselves to be better road users...how about enforcing it?

drove through a pothole today so deep my front lip hit the ground - fix yo shit vic roads - i dont care about a bike - there is bike paths

I did that too. Cost my my insurance company a lot of money since vicroads wouldn't pay out

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
