I have a work supplied transport so not up to date on costs.

Our fleet is all registered in qld ( where we travel 95% kilometres) and my manager has confided that it saves her $500 pa compared to being registered in nsw.

We do have a few jobs in the Byron shire but she rotates our fleet in and out so that they are used 95% in qld.

All totally legitimate and with a fleet of 35 vehicles very good management.

She’s a clever cookie 🍪

If you live in Victoria and have a driver's licence then "they" already know everything about you already.

BTW ... That "genius" Victorian State government has privatised VicRoads which had a software outage for over a week! Roll Eyes

Then if “they” already know everything, what’s with the lure of rego refund?
Is it to get bank details as well?
They can send me a cheque and I will deposit it myself in my bank account.
They want my email, phone number too.
I read in the small print they will know where we are at all times whether it’s phone or iPad etc
They said they can share our information with other departments.
Do I really need Services Victoria? What benefits? All for $160 approx refund. Sounds like free cheese in a mousetrap.
Who puts all their trust in this big brother BS?

This government I can’t trust. People are idiots and hackers are clever.

(Here’s just a part of it.)

In this policy, any reference to personal information also refers to health information and sensitive information.

Personal information means information or an opinion about a person who can be identified, regardless of whether or not it's true.

How weird, whether it’s true or not???

Health information includes personal information collected while providing a health service or information or opinion about an individual’s health, disability, and any health services provided to them.

Sensitive information means personal information about a person's:

*racial or ethnic origin
*political opinions

Maybe I send this OzPol forum details hey!

*membership of a political association
*religious beliefs or affiliations

I don’t know what my religious beliefs are anymore. It oscillates

*philosophical beliefs

Geez why do they need this? What government service do they provide?

*membership of a professional or trade association
*membership of a trade union
*sexual preferences or practices

wow that’s too personal…sticky beaks into people’s bedrooms now!!!

*criminal record

All this information trade for $160 refund wow

I've taken the refund but I'm still going to vote against them In November. https://www.service.vic.gov.au/services/registration-rebate

"I’m not so certain about this Services Victoria.

Do I really need to be in Services Victoria?

The beginning of the Fascist state...the Fascist state of the Left is in many ways worse than that of the Right... filled with delusional people who imagine they are doing right by all by persecuting any they think are not playing their game.

Cheaper than buying a slab of data from Facebook - far easier to co-opt your own people to offer up their info and only pay the huge fees that Meta will expect for their data as a last resort - to fill in all the gaps.

Every day as you gaze at your lovely country scenery and simply enjoy life - beneath the surface these sinister forces are operating daily to control your life as much as possible... and they have already introduced conviction by denunciation to suit the screeching 'feminists' and have long been performing the process of dividing us all up into specified groups for disposal ... ....their wildest dream is just around the corner, they think.... and they are all insane.

"Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak, and that it is doing God's service when it is violating all His laws."
