Yes, but everytime I go out in it I seem to end up stuck in a traffic jam so I can't get above 80 km/h anyway!

I'm at 10 in 5 months, once i started using my radar detector it got alot easier to avoid, but sometimes i get so used to it that i don't even realize it is blowing up and get nailed...the one I find funny is that according to the fine website i got 2 tickets in a 4 minute period

I figure its not too bad seeing that...my company pays them and...i have never sat in a traffic jam thanks to my daily reverse commute. And the fact that i have no annoying 120kph beep on my car.

ps. this doesn't count the 3 i got in 2 hours in my 'not living here' boss's brand new bmw (avatar)

My car saga continues........... successfully managed to have 2 weeks without getting a speeding / parking ticket so was feeling very pleased with myself.

Then yesterday someone smashes into the back and makes a real mess, including pushing me into the car in front and damaging the front bumper as well

5 weeks old - 3 tickets and now smashed up.

Am going back to taking taxis..............

I'm fine thanks as car was parked!

Just sad because it was scratch free until now and is a hassle to get it sorted

But you should have seen the mess he made of his!

And it was a Prado also

You still not well?? You need to take some time off to get better properly -(says nurse LG!)
