    Governments have done everything possible to eliminate individuals thinking for themselves, so that won't happen.

    A recent comment was along the lines of "the best people do things without being told, when others are not looking" or similar. The observation related to people returning their trolleys at the supermarket... There is an increase in lazy cunts not doing this, from my observations.
    I like the UK version where you need a gold coin to unlock the trolley, then get it back when you put it back in the rack.
    Here you leave your trolly (cart) next to your car when you are finished with it because they pay kids to round them up.
    Lets go Brandon

    the term chinks refers to chinesem the chinese fought against japan in WW2 so were our allies....
    as for asian drivers being labled, i'll put my hand up to generalise on that, and old people etc, it's how i've survived on a motorcycle for so long without a bad crash , or at least one of the reasons. I treat everyone as someone trying to kill me but am more vigilent when i see these two categories.

    Well, we had the racism, here's the misogyny. Who's third in the July 10th trifecta with some homophobia? Christ what the fuck is wrong with you people?

    I know who chink refers to. I'm generally not looking at the driverrs nationality when dealing with cars. Just the way the cars are behaving. All the incidents I've had with cars have involved NZ honky drivers.

    I know it's fucked up alot of intersections not changed to accommodate the retardation by fact it's slowed them down, but has it actually resulted in less accidents as was the reasoning to fuck up the perfectly fine give way rule we had?
    I think it was more to do with us basically being the only country in the world to have it. I'm all for uniqueness, but as give way rules it was peculiar.

    How fucked are they? Our tax keeps going up and the roads keep getting shittier. Build them right FFS.
    It's more because the millions of dollars that go towards 'safety improvements', Transmission Gullies ($850mill just for that so far, you watch, it'll top a bill), etc far outweigh the money allocated to renewing existing roads. There are a lot of LA's that would LOVE to fix a bunch of roads, but NZTA says no.

    Of course we're not getting value for money. We live almost in the middle of the gawddamn pacific ocean, about as far away from oil as you can get. We have pathetic buying power/market influence cos population wise, we're a drop in the ocean. It's amazing we don't pay through the nose more than we already do, tbh.

    really.... as many? na blood nut i don't agree... its a per population thing, id agree if there were as many euros as slit eyes on our roads per year, but there's not... asia is well larger than europe and more of em visit here so the round eye cant cause as may head ons...

    Chinks? Slits eyes?

    The fuck cunts, that racist bull shit can fuck off.

    Nearly been hit head on once, French tourist.
    Others I know been fucked up in head ons:
    German tourists.

    I'd say the Germans, French etc better "drivers" than the Chinese or Indian we get here, but it matters fuck all when they pull out from a rest area staring at the scenery and "forget what side to drive on" (direct quote from the bitch who nearly killed me and wife).

    So eat a dick
