No one is telling you to go...yet

We have all posted a few silly things in our time, but you gotta think of peoples reactions sometimes before we post things.

Asking about an illegal activity which you are doing on any forum is a recipe for a flaming.

 

Good apology - We live and we learn. Hope you have lots of happy Zedding and meet lots of people through the forum. PM one of the mods to request deletion of this thread if you want (per your request below).

 

hehe yea, only thing is he wasnt trolling @ my question.. he was having a go because i used his signature as mine because i thought it was a default signature.. moral of the story, dont copy paste nor should you reply to silly posts.

 

Fair enough. But how do you explain those big shiny blow off valves under your hood?

 

When I came to Queensland in 1991 from Adelaide, and I went to transfer my license, they simply asked me if my license was for a manual or auto.

At the time, the SA system did not have such a determination, you had a license, and it covered both manual and automatic.

As it turned out, I had learnt and passed my test in a manual, and had a manual vehicle at the time, but had that not been the case, it would have been easy to lie.

I doubt in retrospect that it's really an important issue with regards to safety, however it does allow the government to grab a few extra $$$ in fines and also allows insurance companies to reneg on claims.

And, I'll also add, really you should carry insurance even if it's just 3rd party property/fire/theft (the most basic), so if you cause an accident, the 3rd party property is covered for loss. Driving a vehicle really comes with serious responsibility. Financial hardship due to an insurance company or the courts demanding money is a hassle you don't need.

 

True that, thanks for your input man..
ill get insurance/roadside assist (for towing mainly :rofl practically as soon as i get my license.
