There are SSSOOOOOO many reasons for me not to vote labor. Not sure this is one of them.

But I think the one thing we all agree on is that something needs to be done.

Perhaps it is time for a group of motoring enthusiasts, who have experience with high performance vehicles, to put together a recommendation, and a petition, and via our social contacts, reach our broader community to see if something "rational" could be actioned, instead of just posting opinions on a forum that wont solve a thing??

I think if you are going to post in this thread you should first of all post your age as to show where the potential bias of your argument lies!

I am all for this but I am 32,

This.

Banning V8's and high powered cars isn't going to do a thing. Cocks will still try to do skids or get sideways in 6 cylinder rear wheel drives. Might as well ban RWD for them.

I think it's pretty clear SOME people just should be banned from driving...PERIOD.

But really it's simple: if you have a healthy respect for your car's capabilities and your own capabilities then PROBLEM SOLVED!

But as usual it's the minority of IDIOT DRIVERS who driver car's that have more power then brains/have defective vehicles/etc that are making it hard for everyone.

I mean honestly, if I had a $1 for every Camry/Commonwhore/Falcon/Lancer/etc that had bald tires or body panels falling off that drove past me at 10KM/H+ over the limit I would be a very rich man. Of course I always get pulled over because I have a “P” in my window and a Turbo on my engine...

This concludes my rant for the day
