    Isn't it in case of an accident so that emergency services can make sure there arent children thrown from the vehicle or trapped in the vehicle?

    On that theory, Tarago's would need 7 signs on the back window so they can check for 7 children.

    Child on board signs are just as useful as My Family stickers. Only idiots have them.

    Once it was Holden drivers. Now its everyone, the level of respect towards other drivers now on the road is zero. Its not car makes anymore the same wankers are driving everything.

    my family stickers/frangipani stickers/unit stickers/justify your existence stickers and southern cross stickers.

    busses, I saw one bus driver not even attempt to go around a round about, they just simply drove over it. luckily it was a flat one with no garden in it.

    cars with white LED headlights, they are usually always a commodore or a falcon. modded hoon ones too.

    cyclists also piss me off, if they want to cycle on the road they should be made to register their bike (ie, display a number plate and pay a fee similar to what would be payable by someone owning a scooter), pass it over the pits to make sure it's road worthy and pass a practical assessment as most of them don't seem to understand the road rules anyway. if they don't meet these criteria, they should ride on the footpath.

    Camry drivers and anything Honda always seems to be the slowest, right lane hogging cars on my daily commute into the city.

    Used to have one old bloke in a Merc who always pulled out in front of me from a side road or roundabout down the road, and then proceeded to dawdle below the limit. It happened week after week, it was almost comical.

    Any car under 2.5L. They all have an attitude towards me.

    They always try get ahead of me when merging and on passing lanes.

    But the ultimate hate of mine is when you are towing a trailer, even an empty one. Everyone try's to squeeze past. The speed limit is 90kmph with a trailer, but hell if the speed limit on the road Im driving on is 80kmph etc, Im sure as hell going to be doing the speed limit!

    Whats funny is the lack of people mentioning caravans, I remember when I was a kid my folks going ape **** about how slow they are. Since manufactures began Turbo charging them I guess the problem has disappeared.

    Whether that's OK or not depends on the roundabout. The ones you see that have the low concrete section with an edge about the height of a typical driveway are made so that car drivers won't go straight over them (although you can :)) and the buses are able to do so.

    Maybe they should but that's not how it is currently. Riding on the footpath, with the exception of a child under twelve or an adult supervising them, is illegal (and dangerous to both cyclists - particularly crossing roads where drivers don't expect to have to look for them - and pedestrians).

    VS berlina
    Back when I was driving the Berlina (2.5 catback system On it) every cockheads wanted to race it, I don't know why..
    Also would have everyone want to pass me, is it P plates that set these drivers off?
    Or I drive a commodore, WHY THE HELL DI THEY HAVE TO PASS ME!?!?

    It's really annoying, doesn't happen in my Calais or another car I drive, just the berlina..
