    Is your car too loud? New 'noise cameras' might catch you in the act!

    All for it. Especially hitting those bloody Harley Davidson motorcycles. I think 90% of those would not be legally within the specified noise rating.

    This major caravan blunder sparks call for driver's licence overhaul: ‘It’s scary and very dangerous’

    WA must have some of the worst drivers on the road. Yesterday you reported a serious incraese in the number of WA cyclists killed and today it's an 50% increase in caravan collisions in 2021. 2021?

    State resorts to significant road rule change over increased road-related incidents

    Helmets, lights and hi-vis vests shoud be mandatory for cyclists. If they don't want to comply or are not interested in trying to improve their safety then get off the road. They are disadvantaged from the start by the large speed differential when compared to vehicles. This is not helped when...

    How Your Favorite Airbnb Getaways Could Disappear Overnight: The Surprising New Powers Your Local Council Just Received

    So typical of useless politicians that can't forward plan and then expect the ordinary people to bail the morons out. The greatest debacle is the total disregard in replacing the current power stations before their use by date or usable economic life. Now all the country is paying for their...

    Learner driver turned away over 'not orange enough' blinkers sparks debate—is it fair?

    I had a chat with a NSW highway patrol officer regarding some drivers using those blinding front low visibility/ fog lights in good conditions even during daylight hours. These can be just as bad as an on-coming vehicle with high beam turned on. According to him it is an offence and they...

    Flashy encounters: this friendly driver’s gesture could cost drivers $2200!

    One way around both regulations would be to flash your headlights without the high beam. See what the police argument for that would be.

    Power payback: Government compensation plan sparks voltage of Emotion in Victoria!

    My opinion is if the die hards realised that renewables are truly not the be all to end all or suited to Australian conditions. Albo and his side kick Bowen need to get their arrogant heads out of the sand and have a honest and accurate comparison between renewable and nuclear energy from...

    Proposed bill aims to fine businesses and individuals up to $25,000 for refusing cash payments

    My vote is to keep the cash option. Sick and tired of governments and overbearing banks telling us how to use our own money.

    Cate Blanchett's outfit choice at Cannes stirs controversy—is she making a political statement?

    Until I hear that Cate is supporting Hamas terrorism then I consider these to be just the colours chosen by her fashion designer or Cate herself. Cate should not be judged just because some groups picked this up without confirmation and ran with it as garbage propoganda. If however, she does...

    Dodgy driver's licence tactic is spiralling out of control

    This article reminded me of incidents that I didn't see or follow up for the outcome. I was supprised that one of NSW's finest citizens could be accused of this. Itwas alleged that Mr Mehajer made a false declaration and nominated a foreign student for a number of speeding and red light...

    Sydney mum's viral rant exposes the city’s social ‘nightmare’

    The trend started well before Covid and the cost-of-living etc etc. When new cultures from Whitlam’s era began immigrating is the time we started to lose our identity. Cultures that refused to integrate, setting up and taking over suburbs. Crime began to get more violent with established gangs...

    Customers express outrage over hidden fees on an ‘average tasting sandwich’

    Colette You are correct in that they are all tared with the one brush but at least Dutton has the foresight to consider nucular energy as the primary source and just not stick his head in the sand and throw millions at renewables alone. Wind and solar are just not going to cut it alone in a vast...

    Customers express outrage over hidden fees on an ‘average tasting sandwich’

    I would ask everyone that has stated that this is not fair. Can you honestly say that YOU are not going crook about the price of electricity or gas. Blame Albo and his sidekick bowen for their arrogrance and inability to get alternative new energy plants up and running. While they sit on their...

    Pan-demonium: ALDI's special buys spark chaotic shopping craze

    I have been to two of these special buy events and will never never whitness another one. The whole scene was far worse than just chaotic, it was mob mentality that reminded me of a pack of jackals at a feeding frenzy. Even worse that the toilet paper horders during Covid

    Driving shift: Senior road safety debate heats up in this Aussie state

    ‘Driving should be based on ability, not on age.’ This statement sums it up simply and fairly. I agree whole heartedly that there are seniors that should NOT be on the road. My partners parents are a prime example. The other side of the coin exposes much younger drivers that should be made go...

    ‘When in love island’: Couple chooses this popular spot for their steamy encounter

    Grandfather's caravan park confrontation turns violent: ‘He could have killed him’

    I have a T shirt that says. I am old but I got to see Australia before it turned to shit. I'm afraid there is no going back to the greatest country that we knew as kids and young adults. Seems to me it all changed when we started to allow radical cultures into Australia. Certainly the flip side...

    Tense scenes erupt as bishop and churchgoers allegedly stabbed during church service

    The murder was bad enough without this middle Eastern type of mob mentality. We don't need these types of thugs in Australia. They carry on like a pack of Hyenas and in this case causing malicious injury to the Police and thousands of dollars’ worth of damage to Police cars etc. They need to be...

    Passenger’s ‘revolting’ act on board a Jetstar flight leaves families horrified

    Well put Joydie. Added to that this behaviour has to be stamped out. Any damage or cost for repairs/cleaning should come out of their pocket. If he cannot pay it should be 1 days jail for every dollar it costs. I bet if he had done that in a judges house he would have been locked away for months.
