I thought they said that the fines were meant to get lower but demerit points higher to show it wasn't being used as a revenue raiser?! ... also Ciel, just wanted to ask, does the licensed driver (when driving with an L plater) cop the penalty? I didn't know that...

Haha I only started driving heaps in the 2 months leading upto my actual P's...

I'm inclined to think I'd rather be indirectly hit by a slow blunt object (eg. steering wheel) than a nice explosion directly aimed for that area. Unless they mean the airbag will popup to protect my dear crotch from other objects rather than to hit it!

There are CVTs in a few more cars (from those manufacturers)... can't quite remember which ones for sure though! IIRC don't hybrids (ie. Prius/Civic) use CVT too? I think even a 7 speed manual is starting to get a tad on the hectic side...? I am inclined to think these transmissions with more...

LOL I thought that too for why mid-tier firms seem to conduct recruitment/interviews and make offers after Big4.

IMO being in the army improves your job chances in many industries- not just accounting. It shows discipline and focus- something which is valuable in many industries but is difficult to show for by only writing it in your application. LOL we really gotta change this stereotype don't we Jase...

As my driving instructor said- everyone who sits the P's test can drive; but how many of them can follow the rules for 15minutes?

I don't know about the 12/16 speed transmissions in production vehicles, but the best I've heard is the new Lexus has the first 8-speed transmission fitted to a consumer vehicle (ie. not a truck). Back on topic to the 7-speed-CVT; a CVT is a continuously variable transmission...

ROFLMAO.

Haha... saw it a while ago in the papers. What I still don't get is how the whole turning mechanism will work with the steering wheel automatically changing direction? I'm guessing that when the bubble is facing either front or back, the steering is locked?... doesn't that mean, if you're in...

I am lazy. But cramming is what I usually do. After all, why else would they give us STUVAC? :) I'm inclined to think that if I did the homework (on a regular basis), that would be a good substitute for revising... since the homework Q's (at least for us) tend to be related to what we learnt in...

Haha.. maybe he doesn't wanna do accounting >_> But congrats to OD.

Shh... better to let them go from thinking it'll be crap and getting a good bit of fun; than the other way round and being disappointed don't you reckon?

I thought $300k is something which only specialists will get... and alot of ordinary GPs are looking at the sub-$100k range? *shrugs* Alot of my opinion is based on what my Mum told me about her work at nursing homes where there are some GPs desperately looking for patients... I guess it does...

Hmm when I was near there back in yr10 for work exp I remember eating at the food court place below that building with a very colourful lobby on George St?... might be Australia Square. Not sure. As for KKs... they're next to the park :) Great place to eat KKs too! And this place actually has...

Haha if you look in some car mags, there are a few pics of shops which do full-chrome cars... I can't help but think that must be a real eyesore on the road in the sun!

I stand to think this guy just wants an Evo for the name~

I reckon if people just did the 50 hours (for the P's) properly then they should be fine. I did 50 real hours and found the test piss easy and wasn't scared or anything... but it's the people who did 10 and fudged the rest who are shitting themselves in the test.

Hmm today upgraded my sub to a P2 :) Sounds heaps better!

Not if you've got slow-ass asian parents to wait for!... but yeh, I still agree that I find it hard to find the use of putting the DVD screen and so on in your car unless you can use it for other stuff like satnav (or your current HU just sucks majorly and you are in need of a great new...
