They're not the ones U turning front of me, moving in on my lane etc.

    The ones that do that are the fat cats in BMWs.And the soccer moms in SUVs, who already have insurance. e and to make sure that THEY don't get a chance to hit me.
    Well I have had trouble with boi racers in tarted up cars. I am sure the examples I am thinking of got their "licenses" in the packet of Chinese Noodles, so any new laws wouldn't apply to them anyway...
    Agree that SUVs, taxis and couriers are the worst

    Put away your nosiy aftermarket cans, guys...
    Yep. Be exceeding cautious of wanting the Government to control anything. You will invariably find that you don't like the result.

    Must vary from company to company.

    My rustbucket old 1985 nissan pulsar is insured for 2 grand (WAY more than its worth), because thats the minimum NZI would insure it for. Still pretty cheap, costs me ~140 a year for 3rd party fire and theft.

    GOD how I wish someone would thieve it lol.

    KiwiBitcher
    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
