    Even multi vehicle owners pay more.
    Put the acc rate onto the license, you have a license for a mbike and want to ride pay for acc. Should be able to put on hold as well. Similar to current system. Rego still on bike etc but no acc.
    yes! ...............

    I tried a mirror on the bike once, what a waste of time, the roads surfaces are so shit the thing was vibrating too much to see anything in it.

    Mirrors are only as good as the person looking at them, as evidenced by the number of pedestrians and cyclists flattened by trucks, which are very well equipped mirror wise.

    Anyway, the moral of this story is that if your chosen means of transport is smaller than a truck, don't put yourself in the way of a truck, you'll probably lose.

    Most of my bosses have been over 60, my dad is over 60 and both my wife's parents are over 60.
    Oh fuck .. that makes me feel old ..

    But Sharon is one year older than me. I am suggesting she'll get there first, you can only but agree.
