Yep looks like I learnt something today.

General populace would have a fuckin stroke if their 2 weeks past expired WOF, got back dated though don't ya reckon?

Hmm, consumer on the win for once, this wont last.

[paturoa]

Congrats. You fucked up half a dozen people's days before lunch. You sound like the kind of cop id rank as first class cock.

Am i obliged to have a "licence"?

Not feeding the troll.

[Madness]

What is it
With people
Who hit the enter button
After every couple of words?
It pisses me off.

Lots of people think that. It ain't fuckin true, I promise! Instead it leaves really fuckin spread out bruises that are harder to distinguish.

But that Akzel rooster might just benefit from some bruises.

"Rastus was writing me a shit load of tickets when Akzel got the learn your honour".

At the risk of accusing you of being serious...my best guess is that the Akzel rooster has already received a good dose of beatings?! How else could he come up with such skewed ways of looking at things?? Ah hang on, maybe he learned it from that Scuba Steve astronaut...

Just an example of my office window view...from the onboard camera on a 20 metre fuel truck & trailer.

The dumb thing here is I was fully expecting the woman driver with snail like reactions to just turn left...and the guy who came past me may have learned about appropriate differential speeds today?

Be interesting to hear the Police version of this one....

There are some retarded drivers out there fore shore.

Did the B4 driver gap it, or stop accross the street?

[Akzle]

of course not,they are optional extras when you feel the need to ride after all its your right isnt it

training,licences,all that crap is for pussies

im happy sharing the road with unskilled unlicensed road users

yeah right

i don't quite see the link between "training" and "license" could you explain this to me?
i say yes. i have the right to travel as and where i please. now, i'm sure you'd rather that i travel in some kind of vehicle on the road, rather than say, through the park, through your yard, through the shopping malls etc.
and you'd rather that that vehicle was of a warrantable standard, whether or not i've paid the whatever$ for some jerk off to tick the boxes on his sheet, and that the vehicle was designed for the road, rather than say, a tank. innit?

now. you say i do not have that right? by what authority?

Could be worse - you might meet Ackzle

how could that possibly be worse? he might fucken learn something. you might too, one day.

That could make for a better KB story. Could be amusing reading both sides of that encounter even if it turned out that Akzle just bend down and took it

unlikely i would. i'm in the middle of writing a strongly worded letter to the last policy enforcement officers that thought it'd be a good idea to act the shithead.

i can't wait. RASTUS!, i'm'a comin fo' ya!
(have your chequebook handy. interacting with me costs police money.)

If you do, please beat him profusely, we'll cover for you. :

what would that achieve?

Maybe a duffle bag full of sand then?

sock full o nickels.

I guess the moral of the story is LAMS is good, and should stop people like me becoming frustrated with the licensing.
Maybe a race license exemption would have been a good idea with the CC limit.

Anyway, just random thoughts :-)

yes and no. and if i get bored enough tomorrow i'm going through the LAMS list and working out their power-weight ratios.
my bike is ~220kW/t (and 750cc) but it's not exactly the kind of bike one'll do themselves a mischief on. going fast requires a bit of work.

If there was would it be called "iBeat"?

iLOL.

Thats a problem right there, 1stly if he wants to fuck him self up should there be a crash it should be his own right, not dictated that he shall be forced to "protect" himself & 2ndly how does a fine change anything? it's his job that has him forgetting the seatbelt so surely just a reminder would suffice... but then where would the donut fund come from ... as you were.



maybee when the licenses start making sense & meaning something other then "I gave the Govt some money"
I mean bikes should only have learners -> full, you're either learning or you know, restricted is just a money grab
& I'm driving a vehicle that should be above my licence grade but the Govt's fucked round with weight limits so much just so people can drive their SUV's & tourist's can cruise round in campers that I'm able to drive it on class 1. It's a worry knowing that the 80% that can't operate cars properly are also able to hop into something of similar size/weight on their class 1's too, they're not as forgiving as cars & cause alot more damage when shit goes wrong.

yeah. i want to see power-weight ratio for a) city folk and b) 15 year old girls in mum/dads (matching) SUVs and c) asians. all of them. except the japanese folk who do awesome skids in skylines. but shit. that might actually achieve something.

Anyone that doesn't like it should just fuck off to somewhere like Somalia where they can do whatever the fuck they want....but not too fast though. As long as these dumbarses keep paying stupid tax to the police then that's less money us honest folk have to pay.

Keep up the good work rastuscat!

uhh. you think it works like that ehh? if i choose to pay fines, that they take less tax from you?
yah. sure.
what if i don't like you. maybe people like you should just "fuckoff to somalia", then i'd be happier here =) and you wouldn't have to pay tax! win-win-win.

where did the rooster come from? is it like saying cock?
did i miss something good?
skewed. what's skewed about my perception?

and rastus bud. you never answered my Q.
am i obliged to hold a license?

[Berries]

i'm in the middle of writing a strongly worded letter.

You rebel you.

Make sure you dont use the words daisies or buttercups
Chances are it will detract to what you really mean

[Gremlin]

So if you get your WOF a week early you don't get 6months + 1 week you get 6 months from that date. They didn't rip you off two days.

They date them forward if you are within 2wks (iirc) of the due date. This is to give people a buffer to get them, without feeling ripped of for doing so early.

Yup, what bogan said. They can write them out for up to 14 days in advance, ie, if you get the WOF within 14 days of it being due, you can keep the original date. However, you can't extend the WOF, ie, get it 5 days before expiry and add 9 days on the end. Only doing the WOF after the due date will push the date further than 6 months.

Hence, Gremlin is going back to get his two days.

Hell yeah, every day is precious! It was a 5min job for him and I'm entitled to it. Visiting twice a year now is enough of a pain to make them count.

Anyway, back to rastuscat, I've derailed his thread. Like everyone else, you get good days and bad days. Enjoy the good ones, they make up for the bad ones...

Wow you live on the edge.

[nadroj]

Yep looks like I learnt something today.

On the form you fill out at most WOF stations there is a place to put the expiry date of the current WOF. This is their prompt ( if entered) when writing the new expiry date.

really? i think my intent is quite clear you buttercupping guy, you. you're a gosh darn daisy-head to say something like that!

For best effect be sure to make gratuitous use of the words "WAHH WAHH WAHH" and "BOO HOO HOO".
