    Genesis Motors Australia recalls over 700 cars for one manufacturing defect

    Haha, there are FAR MORE vehicles on the road now. Since 1970 the population has doubled and the vehicle population has quadrupled. Also far more tech in vehicles now. Older vehicles were far more unreliable and plenty of brands still have an excellent reputation with little to no problems.

    You won't believe this obscure road rule that could get you pulled over by the cops! Discover it now before you're the next one stopped!

    What rubbish, Road Rule 300(3A) clearly states you can be parked and use a phone if the motor is running. Cops do not have intensive training in road laws and certainly are not updated about changes. Their knowledge is generally no better than a well informed driver. This is why it's important...

    Pack your patience: Mum’s simple self-serve solution sparks checkout chatter

    So you've taken your time to pick your items and just leave them, let someone else put them back? Wow, the entitlement here is astounding. And what's so bad with using a card. Far more convenient, no coins to deal with, no dirty money to touch.

    Caught on Camera: This rude gesture could slam you with a $395 fine – See what NOT to do behind the wheel!

    The gesture is not what the fine was for, it was the passenger who isn't wearing the seatbelt correctly. THAT is what the fine is for. No one even looks at the images unless the computer has flagged the image for what it thinks is an offence. A person will look at the image after being flagged...

    A Bizarre Scam

    Had a few of these over the years, similar story, don't even have a camera. Obviously just sent out randomly, easy with computers today to generate emails, maybe even buy a list of emails from the Dark Web so they have valid email accounts.

    Woman loses life savings over 'money mule' scam: 'I just gave in'

    And if banks questioned these transactions there would be a vast number whinging about the bank prying into their business. 30 Years ago when I worked in the bank I remember questioning someone about a transaction, they closed their account and went elsewhere. NONE of the banks business he...

    Banking crisis averted: Bendigo Bank shares update after outage

    Fees only happen at a few places like cafes, small retailers, accommodation, etc. The vast majority of transactions at supermarkets, service stations do not add the fee on.

    Banking crisis averted: Bendigo Bank shares update after outage

    You don't say, lol. That's been going on for years, derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. And that's the retailers themselves, they have made that decision because people are happy with cashless. But guess what Einstein, the retailers do not make the decision about whether cash has a future, the Reserve Bank...

    Banking crisis averted: Bendigo Bank shares update after outage

    Your life continues without access to your account. What happens when there's a power outage, nothing is bought, most retailers shut, can't do a thing. It's never for days, only hours, funny thing is we don't starve to death in hours. You'll manage just fine, IF you don't let those paranoid...

    Massive password leak exposes details of nearly 10 billion accounts—secure yourself!

    Show me where it's been stated that anyone will be "forced" to live and work within a city? Total and utter BS. See, this is where you nutters get things wrong, you read or hear something and take it to the extreme. These 15 minutes cities purely mean that it maybe possible to live and work...

    Massive password leak exposes details of nearly 10 billion accounts—secure yourself!

    You do realise that just because it's on some nutter website does not make it true. ANYONE can make a website, they can post anything they like on it, ANYTHING AT ALL. I'm assuming you are a mature age being on this SDC page, stop worrying about things that are not going to affect you. The...

    Massive password leak exposes details of nearly 10 billion accounts—secure yourself!

    So all the governments in the world got together, many who despise each other, and agreed upon a virus to be able to see when I go to Coles? And they then went to extraordinary lengths to eradicate that virus ASAP? Wow, there's some real paranoid thinking right there. You do realise the move...
