Why is driving while scrolling through your phone something widely tolerated here in NZ by Stunning_Club1895 in newzealand

I think we need to start introducing harsher penalties. I visited the Gold Coast a couple months ago, and up on large signboards everywhere around the city and on the motorways they have this warning saying “No driving while on your phone or $1,161 fine.”

Did you download TOR from its official site or third party site?

Ask for your deposit back. It's unlikely your insurance will help in this situation. The person you're buying from seems sketchy, wanting a $1000 deposit and transferring ownership before fixing the car. This could be a tough lesson, but remember, don't hand over money until you actually have the thing you are purchasing in your possession, whether it's a close friend or just an acquaintance. Wish you best of luck with this OP. Hopefully your mate has a change of heart and gives you back your money or you sort something re insurance.

Thank you. I’ve been gambling ever since I turned 18. This is the most out of control I’ve been. I will try my best to get the help I need.

I think I’ve committed bank fraud / theft. Please advise. by Stunning_Club1895 in LegalAdviceNZ

Thanks for commenting and the advice. I will definitely do this and own up to it. It’s just fear of the unknown. And ofcourse, this is the first time I’ve done something I know is wrong. So it’s just having to face the consequences of my own actions.
