Ok well i got my full license yesterday so i can now say what i want about P platers but people do have to remember that P platers arn't worse drivers they just don't have the maturity level and are willing to take more risks without thinking of the consequences. and before i even got my p's my parents had already booked me in to do an advanced driving course, and i reckon it has saved my ass a few times. we understand that maybe the government "can't" afford to pay for everyone to do advanced driving courses but they should make a contribution and the driver has to pay the rest. which i think is fair seeing as though you will get something out of it and you will even enjoy it. and don't say the governement doesn't want to do it because the smash repair industry will go down the shitter, thats bullshit. as the crashes we are trying to and will reduce with advanced driver training courses are the ones where someone is killed and 9 out of 10 times someone is killed in a car crash the car is written off so the smash repair place gets nothing out of it. there will always be rear enders and fender benders no matter what, thats a part of human error in traffic, we are talking about teaching people the abbility to stay on the road and not wrap themself around a pole/tree ect. so the motor trade repair industry will stay as strong as ever, even if the rule isn't compulsary who gives a shit, if you haven't done an advance driving course then why don't you? its up to you, they don't just teach you how to keep yourself on the road but they also teach you how to avoid other people from hitting you. we are all against smoking and drugs ect because they kill you, we are willing to spend hundreds on trying to loose weight to live longer and look better yet we are pre paired to spend money on advance driving lesson's even though driving a car or being in one has the most risk of injury and death then anything else we will do. so how about everyone gets their priority's worked out before you go out and spend $200 on a night at the club , or buy a brand new phone when there was nothing wrong with the old one. i know what i'm saying is going to mean jack shit to everyone and isn't going to make one little difference but what i saw this morning on the way to work just pissed me off. i got off the freeway at 7am at gosford to find cop cars everywhere and the road blocked because a car probably at 80km/h if not more has gone through a red light and just clipped the front of a big semi which was turing at the set of lights which had launched the car 15m down the road and then backwards into a traffic light pole and lets put it this way, they had sheets laying over the 2 people that were in the destroyed car. and why did it happen? well yes the car driver fucked up by not seeing the red light and going through but there was some nice skid marks there, meaning the driver hadn't learn how to brake in an emergency resulting in them just clipping the front of the semi and to their death, now if they did an advanced driving course then i reckon there is very good ods they would be just fine right now sitting at home "probably trying to get the shit out of their pants" but none the less they would be living. so you owe it to yourself to do an advanced driving course no matter what age you are. i bet one day in your life that you will make your money back from the advanced driving course by using the skills you learn to avoid and accident. anyway i'll shut up now, but thats my 2cents might hit the RSL now and celebrate that i'm in the Subaru RS rally team service crew for the ARC NSW round at the end of this month wooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooo [Report message to a moderator]
