As I have said on many occasions, each time you get into a car you are responsible for how you drive it. This also goes for how you avoid collisions.

The operative word being 'defensive' driving. If you drive around expecting people to drive the same as you then you live in Utopia or are happy with an overgoverned country such as we have.

Ah, good old Common Sense, it's a rarity these days.................................... :pinch:

To me it does seem a bit ironic though...On one hand APS appear to push 'legality' in every way as a major selling point for the XR6T kits, but on the other hand uses 'illegal' acts as a mjor selling point on a seperate kit.

What is 'more' illegal? Non ADR compliant emissions (or even Compliant but not engineered emissions) or 'excessive speed' on a public road, overtaking on double lines and the like?

:pinch: Exactly

Firstly, you do NOT need a high performance car to have an accident, you can acheive that in a 1886 Daimler, or a 2003 Ferrari Enzo if that's what floats your boat.

Secondly, Just because a driver is driving at the speed limit doesn't mean there is absolutely no way they will ever have an accident. It is that thinking that I have seen or come across talking to people that just makes me shake my head.

On point two, I personally have exceeded the speed limit, and am still living to tell the tale. I have done in excess of the posted speed limit on a National Highway / Freeway where the chance of an oncoming vehicle (on my side of the road) is extremely limited. However, I have also done UNDER the posted speed limit during periods of heavy rain, fog, and the northern Bushfires in NSW.

If anyone thinks (and hopefully Plonky will agree) that sticking wholly to the posted speed limit will keep you safe, then think again.

Could'nt agree more Cam, I believe it called 'Driving within your own limitations'.

For some people to understand that means making your own decisions and using your own judgement to control a vehicle. Problem is these days there are that many :pinch: drivers that they require someone to tell them what they can and connot do in a vehicle, because they do not have the capacity nor skill to use their own judgement on how they should drive.

But then hey that's a different kettle of fish.............

I have heard other rumors about you too. 

Were you in Dallas at the time of the Kennedy assassination?

What do you know about Harold Holt's disappearance?

Did you modify the fuel system on Apollo 13?

Is it true that you installed a Unichip on the Titanic?

Did you modify the turbos of Payne Stewarts aircraft?

Did you cause the Challenger to explode?

Did Hitler invade France in an APS modified Tank? (Above the speed limit!)

Did you sabotage the BETA MAX video platform?

Hey Dean, mate I think you may be onto something there......... :pinch:

Very true….and the vids are an excellent example of just that….
