The only people who stuffed it up were Vicroads.Any idiot could have seen that allowing a car club official with (in most cases) no mechanical qualifications to certify a car as being safe for road use was asking for trouble.
If the scheme only allowed cars with a current RWC to be put on a permit it would never have come to this.An unroadworthy car shouldn't be on the road full stop.
People only did what the scheme allowed them to do.
Under the new regs the previously mentioned "tatty" Camry and Hilux would still be OK if the owners got RWCs (which they may have actually done in the first place).
My Mustang is what some would call "tatty" because it is not shiny like most and it has a few battle scars but I got a legitimate RWC when I put it on a club permit even though the club president didn't want to see it.A car doesn't have to be Miss World to be roadworthy.
