I see thanks to all the DICKS out there in the drivers seat, the ACC part of car registration is to be increased, no doubt car insurance has/will go up as well. Thank you very much DICKS on the road	nrrrta (11415)

I suppose it is better to blow off steam in a thread like this than do it on the road . There are some very bad drivers on the road, hence the advice given to me once . Treat every other driver on the road as an idiot and there will be fewer casualties . . It does surprise me there aren't more accidents, I wish they still had the old traffic officer system . Have a safe and happy Christmas . Cheers, Marnie	Marnie (4574)

" job Just a thought for the road, I think the "body bag" twist in the story is interesting, visualize a TV add ON tv, A family is driving down the drive way with the children in back seat, the trailer at the back fill of camping gear - tents, canoe etc . A neighbor comes running out of his house waiving his hands around above his head yelling out WAIT!!!, WAIT!!, WAIT!! The wife tells her husband to stop saying "I think our neighbor wants us to stop for a moment", the neighbor goes back inside and comes out a short time later and gives a bag to the husband saying "if you going away on holiday you might need this", the husband says "what is it" the neighbor says "its a body bag we can not afford a holiday this year" if you dont get it, never mind, they say I have dry humor . I think it would be better then the" LTSA" (Land Transport Safety Authority) crap adds on TV . I hear what you are saying . I suppose it is better to blow off steam in a thread like this than do it on the road . There are some very bad drivers on the road, hence the advice given to me once . Treat every other driver on the road as an idiot and there will be fewer casualties . . It does surprise me there aren't more accidents, I wish they still had the old traffic officer system . Have a safe and happy Christmas . Cheers, Marnie	nrrrta (11415)
622915	2007-12-21 11:01:00	I see now speed fines go down demerit points goes up going up to 20Km/hr over the limit $50 down from $120 going up to 30Km/hr over the limit $100 down from $230 going over 30Km/hr flat $150 Well I hope it works they dont have much success in that area. How about once you start getting demerit points your car registration starts going up, they have your car registration when they hand out the ticket why not feed through the system, this means when you go to buy a car you have to check if it has no demerit points on it, which would devalue the price of the car. The extra car registration money they get could lower the ACC levy on those who do not have any demerit points on there car. So now you have a system, you get a speeding fine, (1) you have to pay a fine, (2) you get demerit points (3) your car registration goes up next time you renew it (3a) and the value of your car may drop because any new owner will have to pay extra for car registration next time they register it lets get the Bxxxxxxs, while we can carry on living using the roads. AND I HOPE IT STOPS THOSE PATHETICLY THOUGHT OUT LTSA ADVERTS ON TV WE GET Its up to you now to save your own life	nrrrta (11415)
