I recall seeing a black Ferrari Testarossa with L plates driving through Double Bay 20+ years ago.

I saw an Audi Q7 with L plates this morning. The student was driving to school with the mother.

I find it extremely annoying that the government continually looks for ways to make crashes safer as opposed to educating drivers, especially younger ones, to prevent crashes. Its so backwards.

There will be a day where we won’t have the option to drive anymore and it will be all driverless cars.

Imagine formula one with driverless cars. The human just sits in it 😂

I think you will find the majority of us learned in car`s from the 70`s and older and we survived [bigwhistle].

It gets me with these dumb idea`s probably conjured up by some up start uni student with no experience in driving [bighmmm]

The speed has not changed on majority of roads for as long as i can remember yes there is more traffic on the roads which equals slower drives .

Just think about the cars some of us did drive all them years ago
No ABS , No Stability control , No traction control , No Air Bag`s , No Power assisted disc brakes , No power assisted steering and all the other so called safety aid`s we are told we need these days.

Not to mention with the locally built cars ... no suspension! [bigrolf]
19th century cart springs .. don't count as 'suspension'.
