This website http://www.idiotdriver.com.au was mentioned on the news tonight and I thought I would take a look.
What is the point of this website apart from people having a whine about how other people drive? I don't believe the police can take any action since it is possibly just hear say... Is the aim of this website just to embarrass people? Some interesting terms and conditions you must read before entering the website... Interesting to see that the Victorian Premiers car (VIC 1) is on the list twice. Your thoughts? Cheers, rxj. |

lol what a complete crap site. I suppose it keeps the oldies coming home from walking the dog busy. those banner rates are WAY WAY WAY over priced! google keywords would probably give you a better click through and cost less.
at least my rego aint on there.. not that ANYTHING can be done if it was. hotornot.com is way better ;) |

Not me. That is according to the report a WA registration and I'm not WA based. Such sites have no road safety merit owing the potential for abuse and only further the cause of dumbed-down policies. Indeed, if your 'reported' you'd do well to sue the web operator. In this country you have the inhereted right to know your accuser. An issue in regards 'incitement' comes into play. I did however submit under another name a 'report', basically along the lines of an SS with its front fog lights on in clear conditions which causing 63 road deaths and genital deformation. It wasn't listed.

Looks like some concerns have been heard at the time of this post, the site is down for "maintainence"
Have you guys seen this site.. its meant for match making, But I can guess what it would be used for 90% of the time http://www.driversms.com.au/ |

i think im gonna nominate myself, and see how good of a story i can write, something about doing massive burnouts at 190kmph near a special school, in an unroadworthy car, ИИИИed as, no seatbelt, on the phone talking with one hand, texting on my other phone with my other hand, changing lanes without indicating, eating and throwing litter out of my car, playng my sub woofaaaaahhh!!! to loud, whilst my baby sits unrestrained in the kiddy-seat rolling me joints and monitoring my mobile meth-lab in the back. all whilst the boot is open and i have my lights on high beam and my hazzards on.
chicks will dig it (in frankston) |
