I am under the impression that the crackdown is on "illegal" modifications.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that a good thing?
My playdo (that's about to go) has a towing upgrade to 3 tonne. All done professionally and certified by an engineer. (If your up for a giggle, google Athol Mullens engineer) Great bloke, but wow!
It is all legit and above board with approval from RMS. If they pull me over, I smile and let them get on with checking because they won't be able to defect my car.
Let them do their job. They aren't out to "get us", just to keep unsafe vehicles off the road.
I agree with the sentiments people have expressed over what some people and or mechanics do, but that is another issue.
This is to keep the roads safe. A bit like RDT and RBT. If you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about.
Bitchfest over,
