Jun. 27th, 2006 12:44 amOn the way home from the station at about 11.45, I saw police lights flashing down the bottom of Power Rd and thought, damn that's a stupid place to put a booze bus.
Closer in and I realised it was a car accident, and thought, ooh, that was an expensive convertible to run in to a tree.
Closer still and I could see it was never meant to be a convertible at all. Not only was the roof of the car gone but even the top of the bonnet had been sliced off.
Which may well be an appropriate time to mention I also found out they're going to change the license rules in two years, so that we'll have red p's (for a year) and green p's (for three years) kinda like NSW. Which means that my littlest brother can't get a full license for four years after turning 18; because I'm over 21 I can skip straight to green p's (but surely i'll have gotten my license before July 2008...). Apparently this means slightly fewer people might die on the road.
