Just had a Qld safety done on my 19 year old Suby. Chose the local mob who only do safety certificates, aren't mechanics and come to your home. 10 mins, all done, very easy. Sounds like you lot in other states get have a real sh1t show.

Mates in eastern states 4wd clubs tell me that getting stickered for minor faults is no biggie for them - the inspection is only for what was listed on the defect notice.

Over here - stickered for a dud tail light results in the entire vehicle being inspected, although going by the amount of dodgy tail lights, brake lights, head lights, indicators and fog lights I see - many of our police could do with an eye test

As for Police checking cars - every time I go through a booze bus, [usually 2 or 3 times a week] I can see the cars in front of me being looked over by the Police for anything obvious, having a bald -ish tyre is a pretty pricey fine + points, + a trip through the pits for more stuff to be noticed.
And - it is never just 1 trip through the pits - you will take at least 2 visits to pass.

Yeah, in NSW, unless you are clearly driving something dangerous, they want to make sure there are no safety issues with the car and will highlight issues that need attending to in the future. I have had good mechanics there that tell me something will need fixing before next time and often just replace faulty bubs and charge me $10 or whatever. If you are not obviously a police magnet, they are not too bad.

I have had two previous WA pit inspections, and as you said, both took two trips. Surprisingly the third one I did recently passed first time, so they must have been having a good day or been too busy to fit in the second inspection

It's good that we are getting the personal insults quota up on this thread. Now we need to move onto 'experimental' vaccines, 5G microchips and the new world order.

Says the main instigator and perpetrator of throwing around personal insults.

Specifically I was talking about the legality of keeping a NSW registered car in WA and having it legally registered. Its not as clear as you might assume. It's certainly not this 3 months bull**** that kiterboy quoted.

So you're now a WA resident, but think the very clear rules are open to interpretation?
Must be why you and your NSW bretheren can't get a handle on covid, thinking clear rules are open to interpretation.

Lucky for you there is no IQ test to move to WA from interstate.


If you are in WA to live here permanently, or intend to take up permanent residence, you are no longer considered to be a visitor. You must apply for a WA driver's licence within 3 months of becoming a WA resident or replace your interstate learner's permit with a WA learner's permit.

If you are a WA resident and you purchase a vehicle licensed in another Australian State or Territory, that licence is no longer recognised under the Road Traffic (Vehicles) Act 2012 (WA) and you will need to make a new application for the grant of a WA vehicle licence.

Lucky that no IQ test is needed to move from NSW to WA? On the assumption that you are a native WA person, I am not sure I could lower it that far to pass. I guess I could say 'you are wrong' to everything, and maybe I would pass as a local in your part of WA? How low is your IQ or can't you count that high anyway?

So, which is it, you are still trying to prove me wrong. You said I had 3 months to register locally, and now you are saying it is unregistered/licensed immediately? I guess you are wrong whichever way you go. I hope no one ever listens to your 'authoritative' advice.

Now tell me what the legislation says. Tell me how it applies if you don't buy a vehicle purchased in another state and already own it?

As I said, its not clear. Unless someone has actually gone through the issue, I don't think anyone here would have an exact answer. Especially MickSmith from Victoria. Whatever the answer, the woman at the DoT when I first moved here and then transferred my license during covid lockdown told me that a lot of people don't bother and it wouldn't be a problem unless I was pulled over by the police and they had a problem with it. I have been pulled over at an RBT and never been questioned on it.

It's good that we are getting the personal insults quota up on this thread. Now we need to move onto 'experimental' vaccines, 5G microchips and the new world order.

The information is clear as day on the WA DoT website.
But you want to know what the legislation says.
Congratulations, you've just become the ultimate Karen.

You are the one always saying I am wrong, so you are now saying you are wrong or you were wrong on your initial reply?

Say it after me... W R O N G

Oh, OK, I'll say it but only cause you asked.
You are still wrong.

Kiterboy is a genius. He googles something and thinks that's the answer. Then he googles something else and then finds the new answer. But is somehow 'not wrong' both times. I wish I had that level of confidence. I could go far.

Rules are based on legislation, but he is too much of a genius to read anything but memes and google answers.

I even said "I think its a bit weird over here in that WA seems to be the only state that are so restrictive on out of state registration. I have read that if you buy a car from another state and then the minute you drive into WA its effectively unregistered. I don't think any other state has such a rule." - yet when Kiterboy finally finds the same thing, he thinks I am wrong but somehow he is right about the exact same thing.

Mind you, even Pugwash is wrong, and if he is wrong, what are the rest of us supposed to believe in?

No wonder he things the vaccines are 'experimental'. The poor fella can't read.

What's puzzling me is how this thread hasn't been censored yet by the censorship committee or is it ok because of majority WA players and their BS. Now we've got formula novis telling us rego is open to interpretation ffs.

You lot are happy to take the hand outs we in WA are working for and funding ,whilst your sat on your arse gaming and hanging out on the breeze forums ,you should show us more respect or we release Rolf Harris to jab you

Get ****ed you absolute duck head

I finally get it. This thread is about opening up ... the bonnet, to see if your car still works after crossing the Nullarbor.

I guess you haven't figured out what bothers the mods yet. Its pretty easy. Stay away from conspiracy theories as they go nowhere and stay away from personal attacks.

Pretty simple really.

Go ahead and create a new topic and add your conspiracy theories and let everyone get angry at each other and see how you go. WA people, Vic people, it makes no difference.

As for your reference to the rego thing, clearly you have no idea what I am talking about, so don't bother yourself about it.

I'm clear on it, but you're obviously not as you think it's a matter of interpretation you goose

Yeah, its good that you are so stubbornly refuting something that you know absolutely nothing about and have not read. Go sit with kiterboy. You would be a great lawyer; 'your honour, its the vibe, but I don't know **** and have read nothing'.

Is this a common theme? Conspiritards are known to be not so good on the uptake, poor at interpreting facial emotions, not good at being able to sort facts from misinformation, and think that the world is run by some nefarious group because they just don't understand it.

In that case, good on ya boy! You are surely right!

When I was driving today I remembered one of the important benefits of heavy weather. It kept all the nutcases, including me, quarantined into the nuthouse and not exposed to outsiders.

but its no longer here, so I might have to exercise some self censorship. I just can't help arguing with retards, which makes me a ...

Yes he's a sad person alright, then tries to make out others don't understand him and his retard ways. What a wanka

What FN said. We are watching closely. The personal attacks seem to be ramping up a bit again.

This is why we cant open borders un****enbelievable we r all aussie

Back on the subject.
They want everything to open up because we are still part of the clinical trials for the vaccines.

Don't believe me? Conspiracy you say?
Don't take my word for it. Safe Work Australia has already acknowledged all of this...


[113] Before turning to a consideration of these reasons, it is important to set the context with some information that is publicly available and should be uncontroversial:

a. Unlike many other vaccinations such as those used to stop the spread of tetanus, yellow fever and smallpox, COVID vaccinations are not designed to stop COVID. They are designed to reduce the symptoms of the virus, however a fully vaccinated person can contract and transmit COVID.

b. The science is clear in that COVID is less serious for those who are young and otherwise healthy compared to those who are elderly and/or who have co-morbidities. In other words, the risk of COVID is far greater for those who are elderly or have co-morbidities. Around 87% of those who have died with COVID in Australia are over 80 years old and had other pre-existing illnesses listed on their death certificates.

c. The World Health Organisation has stated that most people diagnosed with COVID will recover without the need for any medical treatment.

d. The vaccines are only provisionally approved for use in Australia and are accordingly still part of a clinical trial 20.
([20] - www.tga.gov.au/covid-19-vaccines-undergoing-evaluation)

e. There are side effects to the COVID vaccines that are now known. That side effects exist is not a conspiracy theory.

f. The long-term effects of the COVID vaccines are unknown, and this is recognised by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia.

More from Safe Work Australia:

Consent is required for participation in clinical trials

[114] Consent is required for all participation in a clinical trial. Consent is necessary because people have a fundamental right to bodily integrity, that being autonomy and self-determination over their own body without unconsented physical intrusion. Voluntary consent for any medical treatment has been a fundamental part of the laws of Australia and internationally for decades.
It is legally, ethically and morally wrong to coerce a person to participate in a clinical trial.

[115] Coercion is not consent. Coercion is the practice of persuading someone to do something using force or threats. Some have suggested that there is no coercion in threatening a person with dismissal and withdrawing their ability to participate in society if that person does not have the COVID vaccine. However, nothing could be further from the truth.

[116] All COVID vaccines in Australia are only provisionally approved, and as such remain part of a clinical trial 21. This is not part of a conspiracy theory. It is a fact easily verifiable from the website of the TGA, Australia's regulatory authority responsible for assessing and registering/approving all COVID vaccines before they can be used in Australia.

[117] The requirement for consent in this context is not new and should never be controversial. The Nuremburg Code (the Code), formulated in 1947 in response to Nazi doctors performing medical experiments on people during WWII, is one of the most important documents in the history of the ethics of medical research.
