Start targetting the truck drivers who do 120 on the freeways
Target the idiots drivers who refuse to indicate
target the idiot drivers who do 100 in a 60 zone
look at the fools who do 50, 60+ in 40 zones
look at tose who sit right on your bumber because you aren't exceeding
the speed limit
arrest those idiots who overtake you because you are doing the speed
limit
take away the licence forever of anyone who flashes their lights at
you because you wont go faster...
P Platers the problem?
More problems are caused by those who dont have them.

How about targeting the silly speeding rules and laws , some
regulation is required but a decent set of laws bearing some
relationship to reality would be a start and then ensure that drivers
learn to do so and not just pass the test , then build a proper working
traffic school and make all school kiddies gain access to it for free
and credit for passing as required .

Yep, mine must be broken too, I'll have to mention it to the boss, I'm
sure he'll get the limiter adjusted 20kph higher when I ask:-)

So all P platers are good drivers and the police target them just for fun?
You must live on a different planet to me if you think thats the case.

I'd climb in with a truckie on the road anyday over a P plater. Experience
means everything.

P platers are a concern. On trips back/forwards to work they are
usually the ones in a crash. This makes sense, as they don't yet
have the proper "hands on" skills, even if they got top marks in
a "theory test".
I think I recently made a post about the last one I saw, leaning
against broken vehicle still in middle of r'about making a cell
'phone call - no concept of safety.
P platers just need to gain experience, you have to start
somewhere and learn though, and that's what they do (well
in most cases).

And yet, drivers under 25 are the demographic with the highest rate of
fatalities and serious injury.
Nah, fuck everyone else, let's just target the problem.

We have a P plater working in our shop, like she has had her licence less
than a week, she pulled up next to us at a set of traffic lights, music
blaring, then she took off with the typical wheelie and told everyone she
dragged us off.
Like, I have a VT which realy motors, she has a VL, I also had my wife and 3
of our kids on board..
And I took off slowly.
I keep telling her, lets line up at the lights together and then see who
gets left behind.

You fuckwit.
The last thing P-platers need is encouragement to race.

You don't see the trucks (who probably do 120 on freeways) crashing into
other cars every few days.
Last P idiot managed to get a whole family, it's getting ridiculous. Get
these lunatics off the roads we use!

Okay.. so you've just described the antics of a typical p-plater (truckies
excluded).
What was your problem again?

Try 120kph,.....down hill. Ohh and P-platers have been known to "leave of
the P Plates". :-)

you see more cars in accos or mishaps up that way than trucks. sure the
trucks come off sometimes, but the ratio of car to truck incidents would be
big.
the biggest problem up there is QFM and their ilk doing big speeds and
harrassing other trucks and cars, reason being they all get nice big 600hp
kenworths and so get paid fuckall and are pushed like bastards.
target the cause of problems, not the symptoms. an ideology that seems to
have vanished in all areas of life these days.

Less deaths per age group that don't have them as well.

As above

Because to most P Platers anyone not exceeding the speed limit is a
useless driver and they need to show this old fogey how it's done

because most P Platers think it's uncool to be seen driving in the left
lane or letting faster traffic past
> P Platers the problem?
Yes
> More problems are caused by those who dont have them.
Because showing the P Plates is uncool
don't forget
we older generation(some who have more driving experience in 10 years
than you will ever have in your whole life time) do remember what it was
like to be young and bulletproof behind the wheel
