Imo road rage is a term used for insecure people who dont have a grasp on their emotions who just happen to be driving a car whilst manifesting this aspect of their persona

I have the WORST road rage... But only when i'm in the car by myself... When i'm driving with other people, i'm heaps cautious....

When i'm by myself i'm constantly arguing with other drivers... I'm the person you see screaming at the top of their lungs at the driver in front, behind or beside them... *throws hands in the air* "THE SPEED LIMIT IS 60 YOU FKING USELESS PIECE OF SHIT... HURRY UP!!!!!!"

I'm the person who slows down when someone is tailgaiting me... then i speed up as soon as they overtake me... haha.. I also like to block people in who are tailgaiting me... i.e. once they've overtaken me i speed up so they're blocked in between me and the person in front of them...

I always zig zag in between lanes...

I'm an angry little girl!! I think i need someone in the car with me at all times, just to curb my anger!!

I'm probably one of those drivers that you hate... :lol:

This is probably not the right thread for it but anywho

Walked out to my mailbox about 5 minutes ago, got my mail and i just copped a speeding fine :gasp: Apparently i got it on South Road, St Mary's, and was doing 71 in a 60 zone. It's a $173 fine, which i really dont need at the moment. Im on my p's and haven't had any fines before, so does anyone know how many points p platers have, and how many i will loose :dontgetit: ?

ive gotten my fair share of fines over the years, i think you get 3 points as a P Plater, an that fine costs you 2 points bek, unless theyve changed the rules or somethin since i was a p plater (3 yrs ago)

its bitchin' time >:|

i fucking hate driving through blackwood.. its the worst place to drive, old bastards cutting you off left right and centre! the roads need more than just one lane each direction, they need to put a traffice light instead of a roundabout at the top of shepards hill road... and i think most of the ppl up there need to actually learn how to manage traffic!...

over and out

Just between you and I (oh and everyone else who reads this!), I dont dislike hard dance to the extent that I may convey on the board, I still dont mind Freeform (when I'm off my guts or at the gym), I cant stand Hard House anymore and my main love now is Drum and Bass!

Back on track though, I remember 1st being on my full licence and losing all my demerit points within a year (back then speed cameras did not attract demerits!) and appealing to court for 2 back, got them then lost one demerit point for popping an endo on my motorbike whilst trying to stop for an old grannie in front of me, hitting her and spending 3 years on 1 demerit point :lol:

Im so pissed off right now....i just called transport SA and a worker just ave me the rundown. She said that p platers have 4 points. BUT, because i did 11k's over the limit i have lost my license for 6 months. :mellow: Apparently she said i can go to court and appeal to get my license back as i need it for work, but that means i have to start from square 1, and i have to stay on my P's for 3 YEARS!!!! 3 YEARS! That has really pissed me off, and apparently if i dont appeal, and just dont drive for that 6 months, i only have to stay on my P's for another 2 1/2 years. If i appeal , i cant appeal for another 5 years after that, so if i break any laws im screwed. And its even more annoying because i have wanted to join the police force for a while now, and im pretty sure that you have to have your full license, so that means i cant join for 3 years??? I hope im wrong, but i dont think i am.

ANyway im sure ill get over it, but things like this, seem to just pop up and wreck my day...

up to 14km over the speed limit is one demerit point (15-29 is 3 demerit points)

QUOTE
If you hold a Provisional licence

If you hold a P1 licence and accumulate 1,2 or 3 demerit points, you can still progress to a P2 licence after one year but you must successfully complete a Driver Awareness Course as well as the mandatory Hazard Perception Test. However, you will be required to hold your P1 and P2 licences until your 20 th birthday. In addition to this, if you become disqualified, when your Provisional Licence is re-issued it will be extended for a further 6 months or even longer if set by the courts. Where the holder of a provisional licence commits a serious disqualification offence, a night curfew prohibiting driving between 12.00am to 5.00am, unless accompanied by a qualified supervising driver, will be imposed for 12 months when they return to driving.


more on demerit points from the transportsa site

edit: becky doll, that advice seems contrary to what is on the website - 11km over is only demerit point, so i cant see how their info is correct - if it was 15km over, then maybe... i would check that information out further

i would ring again and ask for further clarification (hopefully by someone else) for 11km is not classified as a 'serious disqualification offence'

actually, upon further investigation, you may be in a little bit of trouble if you are on your P1 licence...

QUOTE
The holder of a P1 Driver’s Licence must:

-not drive a motor vehicle or attempt to put a motor vehicle in motion when there is any concentration of alcohol in their blood
-not drive a motor vehicle at a speed exceeding by 10 km/h or more of any speed limit under the Road Traffic Act, or to exceed the 100 km/h speed limit prescribed under the Motor Vehicles Act
-not accumulate 4 or more demerit points during the Provisional Licence period
-not drive a motor vehicle on the road unless the prescribed P plates are displayed so as to be clearly visible from the front and rear of the vehicle (rear only for motor cycles)
-carry the licence at all times whilst driving.

The holder of a P2 Driver’s Licence must also abide by the above conditions with the exception of displaying P Plates. All P2 Driver’s Licence holders are exempt from displaying P Plates while driving.

A Provisional Licence holder who fails to comply with the provisional licence conditions, can be disqualified from driving for 6 months, have their licence cancelled and have their Provisional Licence period extended when they obtain a further licence after the disqualification period.
