accessories that should = instant & permanent license confiscation

pete wood · 2009-03-12T00:17:56+00:00

In the last few months, during long drives, I've noticed that people with particular accessories and items of clothing are SLOW, APALLING and INCONSIDERATE drivers. So, post up any accessories or items of clothing that you have noticed belong to frustrating drivers. Here are mine... White cotton gloves Any window/bumper sticker with a coat of arms on it Padded seatbelt covers (I'm sure they're unsafe too) 👎

Obviously Chris, your daughter hasn't made you some sort of dangly thing to hang off your mirror.
But don't worry she will.

In fact I might even mail down the beads..... 😂

Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

Lowered swing axles. I hate em.

Whats with the driving lights? These days it seems you're uncool to have any lights on at all until pitch black. Every day on my way home form work, there are heaps of cars without headlights on. Its not impossible to see without them, but still. Why wouldnt you turn them on so you can see your dashboard at least? When it gets a little later some will turn on the driving lights, but not headlights???? But then when it gets really dark, light up your car like a christmas tree. LED's in the grill, in the headlights, neons in, on, and under the car. wtf?

I'm on a mission with driving lights now. If a car is coming at me with driving lights on and I'm not going to affect any innocent people, I put high beams on. I'm not sure everyone knows that they arent supposed to use them as headlights.

sorry if thats you pod😂🙅😂
nope only 2 ,one for uhf and one for 27 mhz,most of them on those ute things are only fibreglass poles and of no functional purpose at all😂

I got you beat. Four, including the one that came with my bus. All functional. One is 27MHz, one is 2m, and the big whip is attached to my HF rig that goes from 6m-80m

And yes, I have talked to Oz from SoCal on that rig! 🙂

The accessories that really scare me are the fake stick-on vents that are appearing everywhere.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but I just hate when there is a feed in line when turning left and the car in front just does not use it !! They just sit there and wait for a break in other lane. I just feel like ramming the back of them into the coming traffic

I have a pretty funny story about that.

I was driving home from a mate's one night on the M1 south of Brisbane and was overtaken by a Honda Jazz with these all over the rear shelf thing. I don't know why they were there because they would just fall off when you open the hatch. But anyway. Following close behind was a tilt tray and I thought he was a tool for being so close. So about another maybe three minutes down the road all the traffic starts to pull up and when I get to the cause I see the truck had actually hit this Jazz, spilling broken glass and soft toys all over the road.

Well I thought it was funny. I tried to run over as many as I could haha. Was like aiming for cane toads.
