    That really fucks me off (7 regos to pay!) but PLEASE read ALL of that article. They are right - ACC needs an overhaul, and it looks like the present government is none too happy about the way things have been done.

    Hopefully they get it right this time.

    "7 regos" ?? Bugger! We have four and that's bad enough. The whole system is a ripoff coz you can only drive one vehicle at a time. Those with more than one vehicle are unfairly penalised and successive governments have latched onto this money grab with glee.

    If they had compulsory insurance on the drivers' license (renewable annually, just like the rego) then you could drive what takes your fancy, have numerous vehicles and chop and change when you feel like it. Also, as the years go by and you have no accidents, reduce the premiums. But that's too fair, too simple.

    Why is it that safe drivers pay the same ACC levies as complete wankers who crash all the time? Do away with the crock system and start afresh with a comprehensive, compulsory insurance system. No insurance, no license, no license no vehicle. Crush the fucker. People will soon get the message.

    Whose fault is that?

    We had a couple fall in the same month so just gave one vehicle ninety days then it spreads things out. However, it's always one thing after another isn't it? If it's not rego stickers it's WOFs, house insurance, contents, power bill, bourbon stocks, it never fuckn ends.

    Amazing to know that we are actually still being screwed by a regime that is no longer in power, eh?

    When Labour was campaigning for their last term, I didn't remember a Scorched Earth policy was in the election promises.

    Yup and tyres have just gone up with a bump, ay what? Just stripped the girls' Sporty tyres and have to scuff off a wee bit of surface rust before the newbies go on, but the rear 150/80/16 Metzler was $333 and the 21 for the snout was another $258. Rego on that is due in April, as is the WOF and Mainland roads sure chew the rubber up.

    It's a conspiracy I tell you.

    At this rate I'm going to have to dig out my syphon hose and stay out late.
