Not much has changed over the years. 30 years ago P platers got stopped and were targetted. As most of my mates were hoons in EH holdens or HG panelvans we would be stopped often.

It's just a fact of life , The only difference is that now all you P platers have this and other forums to complain to, back then we didn't have a forum so not many people heard about it. It just seems to you to be happening more often , because you can reach more people and it is in the media more.

Just do your time , drive sensibly and before you know it you'll be off your P's.

The incidence of police targetting P platers is not higher, the public awareness of it is.

That's a fairly valid point, my old man keeps telling me about how often he used to get pulled over, so it's nothing new. All the old farts at work complain about how the cops used to hassle them too.

Lol ,
You won't find me putting you down for anything you may have done.
Life is a learning experience and I'm sure that most of the folks having a go at you have done something stupid in their driving history.

Problem with todays society is we are all made to feel guilty for something,
blood on the streets, speeding , state of the economy. With all this constant media bombardment it is only natural that a lot of people start accepting the standards and political correctness that is thrust upon them.It is now at the point where a generic term "speed kills" is a standard. Speed is a relative thing, 5 km/h is speed. It should be "inappropriate speed in inappropriate circumstances performed by untrained drivers has the possibility of killing"
But that doesn't sound so catchy and is too hard to say :)

Yes I am opposed to political correctness, it seems to me to pander to the narrow minded and is concerned mostly with "appearing to do the right thing".


You have the right to be responsible for your own actions and any consequences , and do NOT have to feel guilty because you do not meet other peoples expectations and standards.
If I choose to speed and I get caught , that is my problem, I chose that action and I accept the consequences.But I will NOT be made to feel guilty by anyone whether it is the courts , the police or forum members.
Being in control of your actions and consequences also put on you the responsibility of not impeding the rights of others.


Having said that, don't expect any sympathy from me for getting a caught :)
I think I went a bit off track in this post :)
Aplogies for this lengthy post.
