    Hilarious or Harsh? See How Aussies Are Taking Parking Justice Into Their Own Hands!

    How could they take up only 2? They would be blocking the entrance/exit which is illegal. If councils and shopping centres can’t cater for the huge increasing number of long vehicles to park then this is the only option.

    Organisation introduces major overhaul to streamline the driver's licence conversion process

    We don’t have any private schools in our town. I’m talking mid holidays and weekends. Not just day before or after.

    Coroner's urgent warning after tragedy claims lives on a popular Aussie beach–what you need to know

    I just found the news article. 2 of them lived in Victoria and were studying nursing. NO excuse then other than ignorance and stupidity.

    Coroner's urgent warning after tragedy claims lives on a popular Aussie beach–what you need to know

    So what more can we do. In the end it’s their own stupidity that caused their deaths. You can’t blame anyone else for that. A foreign woman died a horrible death in the Grampians a few years ago. She went around a safety fence that had huge warning signs. And they were pictures as well as...

    Foreign drivers exploiting demerit points system sparks major crackdown by authorities

    What crazy rules. In Vic you have 3 months to change your licence and car if you move from interstate yet you can move from another country and you have longer???

    Organisation introduces major overhaul to streamline the driver's licence conversion process

    Have to agree with you. Moving to South Aus we found that even on a school holiday if lights are flashing you have to do 25. The school holidays are different in every state and the school zone rules are different. As for just a black and white school zone sign, there are so many other signs...

    Second half of power bill rebates to roll out in time for Christmas season

    If you are on a low income card or pension you qualify but have to apply. But I do recall you have to be with a certain provider. We get it with Origin Energy.

    This woman pays over $2,500 for doing this repeated act on popular holiday island

    Tourists should make sure they can read basic english before coming here. It was not the first time she had been fined so obviously she knew the rules.

    Heads up! Ignoring this major road rule could cost you $600

    I have no problem with the phone rule but I agree with you On other points. Teslas have a big computer screen in the middle of the dashboard. Your speedo isn’t even in your line of sight!

    Commonwealth Bank to ‘change its approach’ after facing backlash over new withdrawal fee

    No need to be a smart arse. If you can‘t say something nice then say nothing at all.

    This woman pays over $2,500 for doing this repeated act on popular holiday island

    Good on the Rangers. The more they fine these stupid arrogant people the less chance of the Frazer Island being closed to tourists all together. The signs are there for a reason.

    This woman pays over $2,500 for doing this repeated act on popular holiday island

    That has nothing to do with someone giving them food. Children and adults have been attacked by Dingoes on this island. It’s been clearly advertised for years that feeding the dingoes will encourage them to scrounge around people. If they are too stupid and ignorant to obey the rules then good...

    Now this is getting into scary territory. BEWARE!!!!!

    Mine too. It really bugs me the way every town or place is abbreviated by the younger generation. Then they get shirty with you if you ask where they are talking about. Is it really that hard to say a whole word? And if you’re a tourist in the area of course you don’t know where Lanza or Manny...

    Commonwealth Bank to ‘change its approach’ after facing backlash over new withdrawal fee

    Yes single question should have sufficed. Especially when we told them. But she kept badgering.

    Commonwealth Bank to ‘change its approach’ after facing backlash over new withdrawal fee

    ANZ now quiz you when you withdraw money. What are you going to spend it on? She wasn’t happy with our answer so kept on. When I complained about the tellers CONTINUAL questions about OUR money I was told it’s now policy for them to ask what we plan to do with our money! None of their...

    Commonwealth Bank to ‘change its approach’ after facing backlash over new withdrawal fee

    It’s not that easy to change banks when you’re retired. We tried to change to Commonwealth Bank when our ANZ branch closed down. (Country town). As we no longer worked we could no longer get a credit card no matter how much savings we had. You must have an income of a certain amount. As we have...

    New power bill credits to roll out as government tackles rising living costs

    Dumb question of the year: “Have you noticed your power bills rising?”. Hasn’t everybody? Unless they are completely off grid? It’s not just power bills. We’ve noticed groceries have gone up huge amounts. We can no longer afford sweet treats. Biscuits up by $1.10 -$1.50 per packet. Blocks of...
