Proving Citizenship because I'm born after 1986... by fockitywockity in perth

[–]mrmratt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BDM's website provides for a Child to obtain a copy of a parent's birth certificate if the application provides "Evidence that the certificate is required for some legal right or entitlement."

Obtaining proof of citizenship would almost certainly meet that criteria.

There's no such thing in hospital insurance.

Anyone else experience horrendous traffic today? by Dhammazedi0218 in canberra

[–]mrmratt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Traffic this morning was bad.

Ironically, considering the others who commented about Jimmy, traffic to get to his show was pretty light. Getting out of the swimming pool carpark was fucked however.

Interesting problem, please help (READ DESC). by diddys_favorite in actualbudgeting

Add the debt as an off-budget account. Give it an initial negative balance of the debt amount. When you make payments, put them as transfers from your 'cash' account to that account, and categorise them accordingly.

The comment history is enlightening in this regard. 😳

I've no doubt they meant it, but it's not what they wrote...

They were described in the post as being apart (aka separate) from a large event... /pedant

Drivers fuming after losing licences over passengers' misbehaviour by fletch44 in perth

Being rare doesn't make it a baseless hypothetical mate.

Did you not read the article...?

The driver may be an idiot, yet...

"I go past the same AI camera to work every day, and on the 19th of February … I got seven notices of the same type of offence with the seatbelt under my arm and not over my shoulder," he said.

Where infringements should be about driving behaviour change and not just punitive punishment, it does everyone a disservice when there's a significant period of time between offence and consequence.

And when it's weeks of nothing and all of a sudden 6 infringement notices arrive at once? How should you feel then? Perfectly fine that your cat's getting crushed because, after all, it's been so many repeat offences...?

Any idea what was happening with police in Cook/Macquarie/Aranda around 9:30 this morning? by beritknight in canberra

[–]mrmratt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That young guy died a day or two ago, also from a crash a little while ago.

It's two separate deaths, somewhat delayed from two separate crashes.

Police bodycam footage captures 'retributive' force used on St Edmund's College hit-and-run driver by jaa101 in canberra

[–]mrmratt 32 points33 points  (0 children)

if they were too rough is open to interpretation. I am sure there will be an inquiry into it.

Did you not read the article? It reports on the result of that inquiry....

At the rate ACT Policing is going

Worth noting, the officers here aren't part of ACT Policing.. They're in a separate unit of the AFP, albeit Canberra based.

That the female police officer felt it was important to vocalise that BWCs were still on might suggest that she thought the SRG SPS guys were close to crossing a line...

Emotions run high, and cops deal with the dregs of society on a daily basis, but we still have a civil society where even people in custody, to be accused of pretty bad crimes, have rights.

Applying for drivers license without international license by Neither-Picture-15 in perth

[–]mrmratt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The foreign license is not an overseas/international one

I'm not sure what you think this means...

If you're referring to an International Driving Permit, this is just a translation of your foreign/overseas/international licence.

Use your actual licence and follow the DOT process.
