    Hey Vifferman

    Glad you came out on top. I live on Shelly Beach Road and what appears as a simple off ramp causes alot of havic. What happened to you is common and happens everyday. What's really fun is watching all the inbreeds going DOWN SBR thinking they're on Curran St. Everyday I see at least 5 cars trying to get on the motorway the wrong way. The ones that are half awake break when the realise something's wrong. Others will actually get around the corner - not kidding. You wanna watch this if on a bike. Slow down and keep alert on the SBR offramp!!!

    But more importantly... WTF are the cops doing a revenue grab during rush hour on Shelly Beach Road!!! No wonder no one takes them seriously anymore. Idiots!

    What's even more frustrating is that a neighbour had his daughters car broken into and tagged. He called the cops and they said there were no available units. Meanwhile there were 10 cops on the SBR offramp collecting revenue!

    Mind you it's our fault. We did vote that hidious beitch back in.

    Those 10 Cops were probley on a diffrent channel to the city cops and the despatcher on the city channel most likely never knew that they were there.

    Well there's a condemnation of their comms set-up for you.

    Just about every government agency in this country is failing and yet they are not held accountable but they sure as hell expect us to be. If that's their excuse then gee sorry pig, I just can't keep my litre bike under 50. That's okay sir, have a nice day. Yeah right.

    Stop making excuses for poor performing civil servants. The service we recieve from the police is unacceptable and it starts at the very top. Yes that hidious man hating beast.

    However, checkpoints during rush hour on a roading system that doesn't work at the best of times is just wrong. Of course we need policing on our roads but this government is going just too far on the revenue generation front. A 300% increase since labour have been in power and yet no drop in the road toll OR any investment in driver education and the quality of our roads.

    Was it?
    Or was it just making up LTNZ contract hours while there were plenty of cops rostered on?
