i just heard from the cops about my car-jacking that happened when someone stole my R33 and wrote it off!!

apparently they have enough evidence to charge one of the people involved, which i thought, yay about time, only to be told,"we cant charge him because he is under a witness protection act on another case" !!!!! that is f**ked, so what that virtually means is that this guy can can keep doing things wrong, cause he is "under protection", dont our laws suck! and this also means that i dont get back my no-claim bonus, i had 60%, cause you only get it back if they make a prosecution...

and the police wonder why people take the law into their own hands, when people can get away with things like that, no wonder our crime rate is stuffed!!!! :headshot:

wait a minute.. I'm sure if you explained all this, and got a formal letter from the police stating the situation then the insurance company would have to take this in board hey ?

it's worth an enquiry if it saves you a few $k on insurance.

that sucks still dude...

I don't think it is the police force so much as the farked up system that they work for. Who would like the idea of seeing decent people getting screwed over by scum? They are probably just as pissed as the next bloke (except the poor bugger having his ride boosted), however they have to deal with these types of dicks all day long.

Doesn't help you much R33_CAM, sounds like you are really getting the short end. Seems a bit bizzare though that if someone steals your car, you loose your no claim bonus, 'cause if you only have 3rd party fire and theft there is no 'no claim bonus' and you are still covered for replacement or damage as a result of theft.

Ultimately, the current legal system which seems to look after the minority and screw the average bloke - sucks

r33 cam... if that guy really cared about not having his identity revealed he wouldnt have had commited any crimes.. especially something major eg. stealing your car and crashing it.

this guy should reap the seeds he sows. if he does something stupid he should expect some repercusions.

there is no way in hell that i;d let something like this screw my no claim bonus. (i have a potty mouth) id be pissed.

im not sure how all the insurance thing works, but i have fully comprehensive, and apparently they cant give your no claim back till someone is charged, dont ask me how that works, i thought u only lost it if it was your fault, and it certainly wasn't, but apparently they need someone to blame.

i probably should have worded the topic different, cause i know cops probably try to do the best they can in these cases, but the f**ked up law system holds them back.

john:

the impression i got off the cops was, or what the cop said to me was " he is under witness protection on another case so he cant be touched, so we have no alternative to close the case" ie: case closed no one gets charged, seems ridiculous to me.

Puckish, I am definately not a cop, you wouldn't get me doing that job for quids, there are much easier ways of making a living than copping abuse of dick heads all day every day. The only reason I say this is because I have had a couple of mates that were cops and guess what they were just average people but over a period of time they turned into very sinical ones - busting people, getting abused, spat on, rocks bottle etc thrown at them - they get to see the real crap that exists out there. And low and behold when they get the multiple offending underage ethnically diverse misunderstood gentleman or lady into court - the magistrate says 'mmm, this is only your 10th offence, you deserve another chance, we want to rehabilitate you - take a community order and if its too hard to fulfill, dont worry we wont really care'

I have also been on the wrong side of the law when I was 17, 18 and 19 - related to recreational smoking of the wrong type and the cops that busted me were almost appologetic, and I always got a lift home. I had a car stolen by an underage multiple offending ethnically diverse member of the community, the cop even told me how sorry he was that there wasn't much that the legal system was going to do 'just another warning' if I remember correctly.

Also I work away, sometimes for months, and not long ago my wife was being stalked by a guy (later found to be on warants in 3 states for multiple counts of rape and home invasion) - the cops were awesome, gave my wife counselling, and when this dick did show his hand, they were on the scene in minutes

R33 CAM: it really sucks that your ride got boosted - I understand where you are coming from, its happened to me only I wasn't insured (a lesson learnt there).

There are good cops and there are some that should have moved on years ago, or even never got onto the street in the first place (usually the young ones- no discresion). Any bad experience will stay in your memory sooner than a good one but this place would be unbearable if there weren't cops at all

Sorry for going on, just pushed the wrong button I 'spose, just my 0.02 worth (mmm, perhaps even got out 0.04:p )

Having said all the above, I am sure there are quite a few people out there that would have good reason to be pissed off with the behaviour of certain coppers out there - there are some real dicks about in a uniform, alot of times when the criminal element gets the upper hand it isn't he fault of the police force in general

    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
