Ironic, to say the least. But I would challenge the police officer's ability to know that you were 0.08 seconds over the time required to read the sign. What do they think highway billboards are for? Don't they know humans have peripheral vision and that we can see more than just what you are...

Banned from being used just like your phone, at least. I have no issue with steering wheel controls as they are at your fingertips already and if you use them, they are easy to remember where they are without taking eyes off the road. As for talking on the phone being distracting, it is no...

Then, using your scenario, how is this different to talking to a passenger in the car with you.?

What about hands free phone answering built into car infotainment systems. According to these rules, I will be breaking the law by pressing the green phone button to answer the call. If so, what's the point of having them built into the car. My car also has an answer button on the steering...

We are in Perth. We only have one energy company so we can't shop around. We have solar but we only get 7c from them to buy off us but they charge me 28c to buy from them. For God's sake electricity is the same no matter where it comes from. As a pensioner I am really pe'ed off with the...

Sounds like a whinger to me. I just came back from 9 weeks in the USA and driving on "their" wrong side of the road, especially at 75mph on the freeways. I had no issues with it. Yes the food over there is fatty and loads of takeaways, no wonder most of them are overweight. I much prefer the...

Hi just my 2 bobs worth. We have just bought a 4 month old Border Collie online, shipped from NSW without any problems. The owner's daughter is here in WA and the pups were at the mothers place in NSW. The transaction was fine and the pup flown to WA the following week. We have had him for about...

However I am still fit enough at 69 to work and would if they left my pension alone. I have 55 years of work experience I could bring back to the workforce if the government...

I live in Mandurah in WA about 45 mins from Freo as we call it. I have lived in WA for over 50 years and would have visited Freo 100's of times if not more. The place is full of atmosphere and I would recommend you visit if you get to WA. You will not be disappointed. I remember back in the 80's...

I would be happy as a pensioner if they would help with Electricity Gas and Water. I don't mean just a one off as is current with the electric but as a pensioner who worked all my life and , through where I worked, paid enormous taxes, should be at least cut in half, always. Lord knows we don't...

I believe that years ago we had Supa Valu stores here in WA Kerro

Hi my name is Kerrigan (Kerro for short). I live Mandurah WA and have also recently retired with my partner. We are enjoying retired life and are currently in the USA visiting family. We were finally allowed to leave WA and return thanks to Covid. Thanks for having me as a member of this group...

I remember when, as kids, we could go out at night safely without getting taken or attacked. We could go shopping and leave the front door open. Dad could pull up at the shops and leave the engine running in the car and no one would steal it. Now, I wouldn't go around Mandurah on my own at night...
