    Highway Patrol SA

    I was in Adelaide last Thursday and as I was approaching a red light there was a highway patrol car stopped in front of me.

    What I saw floored me. I was considering an appointment with spec savers as I suspect my eyesight is failing.

    This patrol car was a VN or VP (not sure how to differentiate between the two) commodore.

    I have been misled all these years that SA was thirty minutes behind Vic, but it turns out that it is really thirty years.
    Dave.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    It was reported recently that Torrens Transit buy the old (over 16 years old) public transport buses from the the NT and place them in service.

    Maybe SAPOL are doing the same...

    Won't go broke now - they'll all be able to make a fortune from the $ubs, which will cost us $29,500 (on average) for every man, woman and child in that state !

    Yes - sort of washes over you after a while though.
