Dumb arse kid got done for speeding today on his P1s 2 months out from going to P2s.
He's got 1 point left as you only get 4.
He has to do a driver awareness course now to qualify to go to P2s and can't get his full licence until he's 20 going by what I've read up on.
Im spewing.
Question is : Do they get anymore demerit points when they go to P2s. I can't find that info anywhere.
2 and a bit years on 1 point is stretching it a bit.

no, no more points.

side note, you dont "lose" points for offences, you gain them. 0 points are good, 12 points (for fully licenced drivers) is bad. P platers lose their licence for 6 months if they accrue 4 or more points.

actually, if he got three points it means he was going over ten kays over the limit? if so he will lose his licence. p platers are also not allowed to exceed the speed limit by over ten kays an hour, if they do it is a breach of their provisional conditions and bye bye licence. he may have the opportunity to take a safer driver agreement though, which will mean he can keep driving, but he will be on his P's for the next three years (from memory) from whenever he does the paperwork at service sa. any further breach after taking the safer driver agreement will mean a 12 month licence loss, and no opportunity of appeal.

pm me beer if you are after any more info.

I'm moving places and was wondering if anyone knows a decent removalist company in the northern suburbs?

Are Klose's Removals & Storage @ Salisbury Plain or VIP Removals @ Salisbury Plain any good?

Do it yourself, hire a van. Get some mates to help, couple of beers and some eats, done.

I need to know how to play my next move......

A lady came into my office just before and asked if my pram was down the street 100m away. She said she had seen my wife earlier in the day but there is an empty pram just left on the footpath. Went outside and had a look. Yep its ours. The wife has obviously been up the street and done some shopping, loaded the car, taken daughter out (luckily) and got in the car and driven off, leaving the pram on the footpath.

I got the pram sitting here at the office unsure of how I string this out for my next move, considering she doesn't know its missing yet? :D

I gotta pick the young lad up from childcare at lunch, so will put the pram in the boot. Movements after work for me tonight is just to go to footy training. She shouldn't need it for the rest of the day, but she will need it tomorrow morning for play group.

I doubt she will know its missing until tomorrow morning, but she will need it so my daughter can have a sleep at play group.

Gotta somehow get the message across about being a dumbass but still give it back to her.....

Take it home and leave it in a stupid spot there....the back lawn perhaps? If she has a crack at you for that then casually drop at least I never left it in car park!

This is right up my alley, my step-sons used to leave their bikes out the front repeatedly even after having them stolen and me on their case about it, if they didn't put them away immediately they would be left out there overnight.

I'm thinking that you send me a photo of it, I'll put it on gumtree and you accidently stumble across it and show her saying it looks remarkably like yours.

Can you leave it 100m from your house so when she drives down the street she spots it?

Post it to her, piece by piece, with an ominous note in each parcel.

Hmmm.
The safe and easy option is to go with Heaters suggestion
I'm liking the gumtree idea though.

Make up a fake police report saying it was illegally parked.

Ok, so after discussing it here at work, they all thought putting it on gumtree was too harsh.

Have sent the following text.

"I just seen some scummy looking people walk past the office. The pram they had though looked identical to ours. Even had the skateboard on the back!"

Why do some PM's I send sit in my outbox and others go straight away into my sent box?
And have the ones in my outbox actually been sent?
