Yeah, I was going down the Kwinana Fwy this morning at my usual brisk pace and noticed a couple of police bikes had pulled a REX over. I must admit I will be slowing down during the holiday season, only have 3pts left.

I think that on cruises during this time of year a strict no speeding policy should be adhered to, cause if one person starts then the rest of us will want to go the little bit faster etc.

Safe driving everyone.

See'ya:burnout: (yeah and no burnout's)

hmmm, tis why i never go up the freeway.

I head up rockingham road then across Gibbs/Russell to the freeway. Except this morning a commodore had lost it somehow before Russell Road on Rockingham Road and mashed a poll.. Caused quite a little backup of traffic, we had to Detour through an industrial complex.

Came across all the cops on the Freeway though after that, lucky for people whom flash their headlights. I thank thee.

Also saw a R33 this morning with a kit and crap, thought nothing of it, afterall.. it is just a 33 :P.. then to find later on a chick was driving it.. sweet :D nice clean car too. [** 25 WA] were the plates.

to catch the brainless ones who go kewl just went through a speed trap i can speed now.

Yeah, but that's not fair to people like Hicks who weren't born with a brain.:bahaha:

It does seem that it is a knee jerk reaction to the ban on speed camera's along the freeway, and I don't think we should blame the cops, there just doing as there told, its the politician :whackit: that end up with the money. So they can spend it on chauffer driven cars.

See'ya

I heard once when a mate was going down south, they had a camera set up, and then a couple of k's on, they had a policeman waiting, and then a few more k's from there another camera haha, lots of people I think would've been caught that day, and personally I think it's a brilliant idea, and like skyzerr said, peopel think they've gone past the heat, and now they're free to boot it

whats this about speed cameras on the freeway?? are they banned???

and i saw a speed camera setup on a main road, where they had one camera, then another one down a bit further and also another one on the other side of the road, that was pretty good idea, i wonder how many ppl they would have got with that???

but it also works for the type of people who when they get caught speed up cause there pissed off.

i know one guy who got done 3 times in 5km with the same setup as the described psiko

for a lovely 10 points and many $$$

or the guy on the last double demerits weekend who did 20 points in one day

Apparently the cops/government brought in some new by-law to allow them to start using the cameras on the freeways again. Nothing good lasts forever.

Saw cops on bikes with hand-held radar guns on Alabny Hwy just then, looks like nowhere is safe to speed.

See'ya:burnout:

Yep, i just invested in a new bel, saved my ass once already.

I dont think anyone here can say they *never* speed, and anyone who does is obviously lying, there are always situations where a bit of speeding is acceptable, and that is always where the police are. They should concentrate only on problem areas, rather than places they can hide good.

Speed cameras arent made to increase road safety, they increase government revenue, no matter how the politicians like to spin it, thats why they wont stop using them, and they wont ban them from roads like the freeway.

Don't know how much difference all the speed cameras make - except to the pockets of the pollies. Speed isn't the problem on the roads, its drivers who seem to think that they are bulletproof and have a god given right to drive in any manner they wish, regardless of where its done.

Bloody Pollies chasing revenue is all -

Feel better after that vent:)

    • 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
