The main road cars ive seen a white vw kombi not yet maybe our friend can post up some pics so we can have a sneaky peaky at.

Just for liability reasons id be curious about insurance etc ie: if your doing traffic diverting and step out in front of a slow moving car get knocked down with the 3rd party injury on your rego cover you and is the vehicle listed for business/private purposes those little things make a difference when they look at your claim to pay any medical expenses.

Any of the wapol members would know if he is around anyhows im sure his vw would stick out like dogs balls on a transvestite.

And just curious about the crash on reid highway did you hear about that on a scanner and went to the scene to help or did someone ring you ?

Very good idea i guess, im sure the police would be happy they dont have to do point duty when your around....but i hope you had some form of training to do it.

I see you have your numbers posted on the forum too.

Sorry for the questions dont ask dont know

The 4x4s that you see with the LED bars are called HEROS they are funded by main roads. They basicly go to where there are accidents of rd works or obstructions and help clear traffice they work on freeways and hwys only

Well time will tell....its a 1974 VW Kombi so those out n about keep your eyes peeled and say hello to john id say NOR nearly morley.

I've spoken with him guys, and he seems like a genuine enough person - no catch no gimiks - I'm sure he ain't Luke....

He sounds like a good samaritan, just because most of us havent seen him out and about assisting, doesnt mean he is a fake, give him abit of slack till you have concrete proof its another duplicate member.

Just my 2cents worth
