Trev Posted November 28, 2007 Report Posted November 28, 2007 That was quick. :lol: The incident actually happened a while ago and the car number is now used on a 4x4 but they were able to find the guy that did it and he is suspended. Quote
tas_ae71 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) thats ace!! was that one wheel or 2? I'm guessing that guy was an officer? not a joy rider.... Edited November 28, 2007 by tas_ae71 Quote

SoulSearcher Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 i couldn't get the link to play, it said it was "no longer available". :lol: Quote
camerondownunder88 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) also...i think there should be NO such thing as a automatic license :lol: Amen to that brother. A auto license is a license to steer only. Also what is that redline oil des? I say put skydrol in his eye if you want to inflict pain..LOL Redwarf will know what I mean. That shit is nasty leaves paint stripper, brake fluid etc to shame makes them look like water. IT is aircraft hydraulic fluid and yes I have had ti in my eye. I'm nearly in tears remembering it now..LOL And people I hate it when they say I was doing 40 and it was more like 100. Helicopter pilots do this at work. Over temps etc when they happen the gauge has a red light come on only us techs can fix. And they say oh i never over temped it..LOL my ass the memory in the gauge tells us you did and by how much..LOL Cameron Edited November 29, 2007 by camerondownunder88 Quote
Trev Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 also...i think there should be NO such thing as a automatic licence :lol: A auto license is a license to steer only.Cameron So people with diabilities should get a manual licence then. Maybe some people just feel more comfortable getting an auto licence. Quote
JiP Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 I know of a guy who is epileptic. He shouldn't have a license. He had a fit while driving and almost killed himself and his 15 year old passenger as he wrapped his car around a tree. My brother too shouldn't have a license but he somehow does. He has a pacemaker and if that thing would jolt when he's driving he could cause some accident. Even tho everyone has the right to a license, some probable shouldn't as they are a risk to people around them. Quote

Cheers Cameron Most people with an auto licence can drive a manual but they just get an auto licence as thats what they are comfortable with so I'm pretty sure that in an emergency they would put there licence issues aside and drive, It would be alot different if you were drinking or disqualified, My brother inlaw has an auto licence but has driven manuals on the road before including my seca.

tas_ae71 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 some people arnt comfortable with using a clutch. i was working at a mechanicals for a short while, there was an au XR6 falcon come in and the owner was a middle age lady and she wanted a lighter clutch put in that. i do admit it did seem quite heavy for a stock clutch, I'm not sure if it was any better with the new one or not. if she wanted that sort of car she would be better of with an auto one. i think that its just dumb to say that people should have to have a manual licence. just because someone is unable to correctly use a clutch doesn't mean that they can't drive at all. in an emergency most people call an ambo anyway.

7shades Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 Obviously there will be exceptions to every rule, however I think the 'auto only licence holders' we like to sink the boot into (myself included) are overwhelming majority who can only drive autos out of fear, laziness or inability. My concern with these people is that if they cannot be bothered learning to drive manual, or just CAN'T, this indicates to me a sub-standard ability to drive in general. Its a very broad generalisation I know, but we all know this type of person. It harks back to the 'lack of proper training' conversation in the recent speed camera thread. Quote
Jason Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 (edited) I had two friends, that couldn't cope with manual, but are still capable drivers, ie can drive safely and not toatly retarded. Some people just carnt deal with more than two things at a time. Edited November 30, 2007 by Jason Quote
