Don't forget impounding those evil "hoons" cars. Nothing is more important than ensuring that Australian roads are completely free of import vehicles and car enthusiasts. How else can you train the population to help the government prop up our car industry than to intimidate them into buying the junk that rolls off the assembly line here?
Well, that's blatantly wrong. Considering the pointless Holden vs Ford patriotism that goes on here there's no government intervention required to keep bogans buying locally produced cars (except for those produced by Asian owned manufacturers). I'm all for repeat or blatant idiots having their cars impounded. I had some moron drive into me to cut in front of me at a set of traffic lights, and then he raged and reversed into me before speeding off. That's the only collision I've ever been involved in.
Or making sure that nobody, absolutely nobody, takes their eyes off the speedometer for even half a second, lest they creep 0.0000001 km/h over the limit, thereby killing 10 starving disabled orphans instantly and advancing the impending doom of civilisation.
+1 troll there. I've been done for speeding a minor amount over the limit a couple of times. There's usually leeway in the form of not fining someone until they are a certain amount over the speed limit. It's adequate motivation to make me check my speed whenever I pass fixed speed cameras or see brand new cars suspiciously parked in unusual places.
The agency didn't secure the pages, so the government kicked up a stink about being "hacked".
Quote from your linked article: 'Campbell said he had been advised by the IT contractor building the website, Bang The Table, that "there were two days of IT attacks on the website firewall security that began on Thursday 18 February at 8.44 p.m. and continued until around midday on Friday 19 February".'
Sounds like a Cover Your Ass on behalf of the contractor and a politician. Nothing new there.
