Police target motorcyclists in another safety campaign

[AD345]

Thats the attitude that provokes change in the form of increased ACC or higher manditory safety standards due to peoples acceptable risks exceeding accs budget for client repairs.Dont forget to ACC your a value in worth based on average cost to maintain.

It might be an excuse for levy increases but that doesn't hold up as a REASON to anyone who actually understand ACC and the changes that have been happening since 1974

The only reason for the increase in ACC levies is a change in the ideology of the incumbent government exacerbated by the GFC necessitating a push out of the time line or an increase in levy's to move to a fully funded model . Said model is not a necessity either and was itself a reflection of a more right wing economic approach of the previous govt.

ACC has 11 billion dollars in cash reserves

We could all crash and permanently paralyse ourselves in the next 2 weeks and it aint going to go broke

You win as long as your happy to gamble with my cost of registration because your prepaired to increase your risks when you ride . ACC only need an excuse to increase it again.I wont be the one that needs look after you when you loose your skin and nerve endings and encourage you to have more skin grafts.Ill leave that job to your family and/or the ones that love you.

I don't gamble with your cost of registration, you gamble with MINE by perpetuating the myth that ACC needs targeted levys based on risk and that it also needs more money than it is currently getting

Neither is true

The rest of your post is just melodramatic piffle.

Your attitude is that your not prepaired to look after your own well being you need someone to tell you how to do it.
Idd rather think for myself.Seeing as i have been down at speed 2 times.One of those wearing race leathers in the shoulder down to plastic shoulder guards after destroying 2 1.4mm leather layers idd say idd be minus flesh bone and muscle.In my mind im convinced the human body wasnt designed to go very fast so its best I give it as much protection as possible.

No... that would be YOUR attitude. I'l worry about myself thanks very much and I don't need you to tell me how to do "it"

Yup, guaranteeing that the event in caps above will always be the case cannot be done...

Taken out of context "look after" = protect against.

mossy - I'm sure you are a nice bloke and I'm not going to keep pulling apart your posts, much as I may be tempted

The only problem I have is that you keep trying to tell me what to do


Stop doing that

I agree with everything you have said except for this part.

Maybe you should come and work for ACC and realise how the funding is allocated?

By the way, I actually do work for ACC and now how the funding is allocated. I am not saying there is enough money to cover the coffers.
But just not enough to cover the above statement.

You'd have to be a bit stupid to take that comment literally, but.

Ah, a bit of hyperbole never killed anyone....(see what I did there?)

I have a reasonable idea of the allocation models but I'm always keen to know more

The point was more about the myth of lack of funds - which you already know
