Don't support the damn thing. What a blot on society that is. No controls - and now it looks like we have an insurance company using it? I don't like the colour of your socks, so I report you under three different bogus names and you get refused insurance - is that how it works?

Nah I think it's a hoax.......well at least it clearly does not work.......

History check for: 4MUFF [WA]According to our records as of 48 hours ago, this PLATE currently has a clean record.

haha ok, i just no someone who calls them self the big fella or big geoff and he'd share the same views as you on this that was all.

Taxman and the stats is exaclty why i don't support that site, because for example a road user could forget to indicate accidently pull out infront of someone or what ever and then someone like the Taxman is gonna put a bad mark against your name... ridiculous and unneeded.

it still might be a FAIR indication if someone is being a right idiot in their road behaviour if they get more than a coupla ratings from different observers.

So if your insurance company decides to up your premium because I create 3 different logins and spend 20 seconds a day for a week giving you a hard time .......?

Just an example of how easy it is. Believe me - there are crazies out there doing this sort of ****e.

Nasty site that one.

its a f*kn joke if any company used a un moderated site to base customer information on. I find it hard to believe that anyone would take that site seriously in the 1st place.
Then again so many people get caught up in the web like many a commodore driver who comes into my work claiming things will work because the have ‘seen it on a forum/site’ I think some people just find themselves intimidated by sites/forums, especially when its a whole knowledge bank that’s un moderated / unproven to a degree.

mmmmm...... be interesting how popular a site based on the opposite - post a gold star for a driver who waved you on at a round about - could be ? A flop ?

I see your point Bigfella

That guy that kept adding so many people, would have to take his attention off driving to record all the numbers else how could he remember them all? And I'm sure no insurance company could legally take that seriously anyway, would be stupid.
