Paintwerks - I'm with you ^
But there are the over zealous types who believe that not having a dash pad IS a safety hazard!

They are the same guys who wont issue a 5 star ANCAP safety rating to cars that don't have bells and whistles to tell the driver to put his seat belt on. Oh brother!
They are also the same people who think NOT wearing a helmet while riding a bicycle is a unsafe. I've literally clocked as many km on my bike as I have my car. I've been knocked off my bike more times than I care to count (Luckily, through self preservation, I've avoided countless more silly drivers). Never, I mean categorically never has the helmet helped or taken any impact in any of my spills.
(NOW that I've said that some clown will knock me off and I'll land on my head - people will say... "See I told you so!" Karma for arguing the opposite. haha).
Treeve - I am naive, I don't know how it really works forming a club, but I have seven mates and we can't sign off on it. Don't you have to be affiliated with CAMS and other reputable bodies? Either way, not sure why taking aim at club rego.
There are plenty of larger genuine issues to take aim at regards automotive landscape and safety
The numerous unroadworthy cars that get around,
those who drive uninsured or those who issue bogus RWC certs.
Not to mention the clowns on mobile phones, etc etc...
