Ian, I have never ever thought I was above the Law.
A: The patrol is a solid, heavy, strong and powerful car.
B: A test tow around the local area suggested the vehicle and hitch were up to the job.
C: The brake problem happened in the middle of no where. Rather than sit on the side of the road, I decided to carry on and get the job done.
D: Finance, haulage people quoted $10,000 to do the job. I did it for $2000.
E: The Law may have changed over the last 20 years but the Patrol has'nt.
F: You only have to read many of the posts on this
forum and it becomes apparent that if you adhere to every law, insurance criteria, towing capacity etc, you would be lucky to get away on any trip.
G: The Law is fine but what about the human input, experience, judgement, its all been taken away from us.
H: No wish to harm your family or anyone elses. Stay out of my way and you should be ok.....hahaha.
Cheers......Lionel.
