......You are beating your head against a revenue brick wall dealing with these kinds of people...they are just another tax collection service...that word "safety" allows them to legitimise just about all that they want to do....they just say......ITS SAFETY,.... its to keep you safe, trouble is , not from them...... im sorry if i sound cynical, I have just had enough of the B SH1T....
.....i took part in the 1978 melbourne pillion law protest ride, and since then i find that people making the laws are still the same conceited arrogant ......narcissistic...psychopathic .....wankers.....and motor cyclists are still the same freedom loving ....down to earth ....honest....trustworthy....switched on bunch of all time good guy's....
BUT, we did change things in this state by having the numbers. Political muscle. We got rid of the 80 kph pillion speed limit. We got rid of front number plates. We helped introduce rider training. We won footpath parking in Victoria. We kept CPT for bikes, below the rate for cars for decades. We stopped lights-on laws. And more. Around the end of the 1990s rider apathy grew allowing malignant conservatives to take over MRAs and set up "strategic planning committees" which destroyed what was left of the tough, professional lobby groups and replaced them with riders with "public service" mentalities. The old ways were for dinosaurs. Today we have lost most of what we won in the 1970s and '80s and our apathy is in large part to blame. Go see your MP. It's your riding future. www.parliament.vic.gov.au/members . Use whatever you like off this blog. Send me an email and I'll send you the "abolish the TAC tax" media releases showing Napthine, Mulder, the Parliamentary Inquiry, the VACC, the IRG, the Victorian Scooter riders Association and the Freedom Riders ALL saying abolish the TAC antibike tax (safety levy).
