You can rant as much as you like, you make perfect sense to me.

I vote and I am in a certain political party. I may be on a pre-selection committee, so I will definitely ask the candidates about this issues. I am pi**ed off and will take action in many ways......

there's nothing reasonable about seizing the assets of someone who has done nothing wrong.

What happened to the guilty being punished and the innocent protected. Smacks of big brother, just like revenue, sorry, speed cameras - just get anyone, does not matter if it was the actual driver (and get the MONEY). great, we (the politicians and the bureaucrats) are doing something.

The law has to be fair and seen to be fair. This vehicle theft/seizure is not fair and not seen to be fair. The law also need the respect and cooperation of citizens. This cr*p makes me not respect the law and not cooperate in any way. Just try and get the law to help you if someone breaks into your house and steals your property – takes the police days to turn up, if ever, then nothing. Obviously no revenue!

And another point - I just love the way politicians and bureaucrats claim any reduction in road toll was their work but ignore improvements in vehicle safety.

I vote and will take these things into account. My rant for the day!

Very well said,
the new laws have lots of grey areas but Police and others are not allowed to use common sence as bueracrats can not see the GREY parts, all black and white to them, I get angry about some Police actions but i know they are actually left with no choice so not really their fault but they are the ones who enforce them so bare the brunt of my scorn,hypocritical of me i know but what can one do.
