    The other, on a GN125, had an expired car and bike licence. Forbidden from driving until he gets a licence.

    Two bikes, two strikes. And people wonder why bikers get stopped for random checks.

    Yes most important. By not showing up to pay the fee by the due date he was instantly an incapable driver.

    Strange system really.

    Ive still got a lifetime licence I bought and paid for in 1988. Strangely, even though I have honoured all its conditions, the government have not.

    Ah but there's the rub. While you honoured the conditions set by the government under which the license was issued, that government no longer exists.

    Every three years the bets are off.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    All the more reason to take demands for compliance with any new rort with a grain of salt.

    Nope, the terms and conditions are set by order in council, which is Parliament. Faces changes, Parliament does not.
