Thats funny? I am sure I have heard of male drivers making the same mistakes

 

could be wrong

yea im sure in most cases it is a male driver.

but im sure if a female "hit" ur car, ull'd be cut too..

ive got nothing against female drivers. i even let my gf drive my car.... (sumtimes)

I'll be the first to admit that most females can't drive, but there are some out there that could put any male to the test.

I got run up the arse by a male in a magna while sitting in traffic in a carpark with my handbrake on. So I guess the same could be said for males? Unless he really liked my arse and wanted my MSP51 numberplates?

I put it down to lack of concentration and not watching where he was driving or his surroundings. Insurance sorted him out so it's ok.

as a female driver i am proud to say that i have never caused any accidents. my sisters on the other hand are terrible drivers and shouldn't have been given licenses.

the only accidents i have been involved in have been the fault of a male

was she driving a small car because i find that young women who drive small cars drive like bloody maniacs. They are either extremely lucky or extremely skilled drivers the way the weave in and out of traffic.

Although i cant say men are any better, coz they arent.

Accidents do happen. I know you feel bad; no one wish this would happen, but they don't mean it.

I personally think that female drivers (most of the time) take more care when they drive. That's why they try to prevent themselves from situations where there need to squeeze through lanes and follow up very close to another car. They might also drive a bit slow. So what? Care and prevention make them good drivers. However they won't be so experienced in that sense (like Mum & GF), when they have to make quick decisions with their car.

Reversing into some car or running into someone's rear can happen for anyone, as one's mind might wander off somewhere. Being a "young" bloke, I know how dangerously I drive compared to any girls I know, so I wouldn't say that they are bad anyhow.

But when it comes to more elderly people.... it's a different story.....

I don't hate female or male drivers, just a certain demographic driving large 4WD station wagons, like Land Cruisers, Patrols and Pajero's.. I have had one car written off by one and have been passenger in three accidents where these cars have been involved and the typical (I am bigger and can drive over you) tactic has been employed and cars and people have been majorly damaged...

man i'm not liking this. Wheres the sexist sentiment thats SUPPOSED to exist in our society. Bloody female drivers, too busy putting on makeup to concentrate!!

(not serious by the way....much)

kel if you're 21 and have been in four accidents already, i reckon you must be doing something wrong. I'm 23 and haven't been in any (you pulling out in front of people too close or something???)

go the chauvinist male!!!

Not a good thing to be saying, by the time I was 21 I had been in more than 4 accidents, not as a driver I might add, but when you put yourslef in the situations, or you don't for that matter, shit WILL happen.. I have malformed broken ribs, scars and lost friends to show that no matter how cautious you are, the roads ARE dangerous.. I have personally done more defensive driving courses than most of the people on this forum, in my line of work we do another stage/refresher every 6 months.. Everyone else on the road is out to get you, if you drive with anything else in mind you will come out messed up..

Sorry to be critical, today is the anniversary of a good friends death from a car accident I was in.. When it hits home, it hits HARD and you don't forget....!

shit man thats unlucky. Sorry to hear. I've been in a few with other people driving (but they were at fault....AND TWO OUT OF THREE WERE WOMEN!!!!!!!) Hahhahaha didn't even think about that. Luckily they were all fairly minor (just because of luck mind you).

I do understand that you can be the best driver in the world and still put your life in the hand of other dickheads on the road, but i thought it was a bit of rough luck to have been driving for 4 years (shes 21 so i'm assuming) and have had 4 accidents.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
