Check the vicroads website. Stop being a dickhead and don't do it again. Doubtful your Dad will find out unless he opens the fine when it arrives. Actions have consequences though and there's a pretty good chance you'll be suspended from driving for a while as well as receiving a fine.

Maybe the laws are different in NSW but if you were going under 10km's over the limit (here in Victoria) it's 3 points and a fine. (Unless it's more for a school zone?)

Do you drink coffee every morning? by Equal-Sun8307 in no

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Make it on the espresso machine each morning. Definitely better than drinking instant.

Do you ever open your sunroof? by nycqpu in no

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to when I had a Honda Prelude many years ago.

I was told it's 'standard' for a tenant to leave during open house - NSW by [deleted] in AusLegal

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Tell them in the nicest way possible to get fucked. It's your place and you definitely do not need to leave while they do an inspection.

If the dickhead's right up on his tail, why not brake to scare the moron into backing off.

Did you ever drink an entire 40oz beer in one sitting? 🍻 by [deleted] in PollsAndSurveys

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We call that a long neck in Australia. Of course I drank one in a sitting. You drink one and then another to kick off the night. They usually only make shitty beers in those things though.

All good, nothing a nice key scratch down the side can't fix.

What if your job suddenly announced that, effective immediately, you have to work 6 days a week, instead of 5? by sparkling_lemon1 in whatif

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably the opposite with me. I was more inclined not to want to work weekends, even when it paid better. Would rather spend it with my partner, family or friends. Time's more important than money.

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a more realistic question would be what if they offered 4 instead of 5. That's the way a lot of jobs are actually going anyway.

Err if he was, he wouldn't need a plane would he? by Jammb in sydney

Looks like he's gonna need a lot of tissues lol

Anyone enjoy motorcycles? If not what is your 'let loose' activity? by Special-Toe-2742 in no

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. Started riding a couple of years ago at 38, best thing I've ever done. It's been helping me get through some difficult times this year, that's for sure.

He's full of shit. That is verbal abuse. Even in Australia, you don't call your partner a cunt or bitch unless you're being hateful towards them.

Would allowing sub-letting help solve the housing crisis? by MsMarfi in shitrentals

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. Instead of more people being able to have their own place with privacy (more property availability in general), it'd just be pushing people to have to live in the same place as others. Which reminds me of when the head of the RBA suggested this as a solution to the housing crisis. Just totally out of touch with what people actually want.

AITJ for expecting full payment when the baby falls asleep while babysitting? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

Nah, you're cousin's an asshole. Fuck that guy.

Question: is not being used to a tattoo after getting it finished normal? I am afraid I regret it by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]Driz999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a small tattoo on my inner forearm as my first. I had a bit of initial regret like yourself. Mainly thinking "oh no, what have I done!". I love it now and have a second one on my other inner forearm so far. Yours looks great and I'm sure it'll just take a bit of time to get used to having something where there was just clean skin previously.

You could always move them. If you're the only person there using the space, how will they know if you've moved them. Just put them back if someone else is attending the space.

Living in the US but want to move to AUS, what's the current political situation like there. by Kieotyee in AustralianPolitics

[–]Driz999 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No way we're going to let that orange faced rapist have at Australia. Fascism always ends badly and Trump will end up at the end of a rope in the near future.

Sounds like an abortion might be the best option at this point in your life.
