I had both car and motorbike due on the same day
$1200 bye bye
Wow! That's seems ridiculous, perhaps we as motorists should form a national lobby to get a fair deal. More of our taxes, fines, petrol levies etc: and this sought of thing put into improved, adequate infrastructure.
Speed and alcohol kill but the third and possibly even the greater killer is overcrowded, inadequate roads. EG: places where accident after accident keep occurring.
Does every one stop and have a swig or rev their cars up before hitting these spots? Reduction in frustration and improved design would help in the reduction of the consequences.
Reduce the road deaths, injury and heartache in the only way that can be positively accomplished. Along with the so far apparently failed attempts of changing drivers attitudes and behavior
Double the speed cameras but always with a flash and perhaps a roadside sign showing, you have just passed a speed camera and even at times placing a second speed camera further down the road. Causing An immediate reaction and positive caution, hopefully after the first.
Rather then the idiot say travelling at excessive speed, totally unaware that he has passed a speed camera and further down the road increasing the road carnage. By killing or injuring himself or someone else.
A warning of speed cameras might reduce revenue but it sure as hell will make it safer and has to help reduce the road carnage. Safety rather than Revenue.
Improved roads and freeways designed to be adequate for todays and tomorrows traffic. Financed by the super duper massive amounts of cash received from US the motorists.
Help the economy. Easy Reduce the politicians wages and perks which by comparison to say English or American politicians is I believe up to double and they have to look after up to double or more of the people.
So perhaps we even need less of them. Then there is the massive amount they get paid on retirement or booted out. Plus the perks. Currently is it five or six ex PMs with chauffer driven limousines, an office with two staff and associated expenses.
For instance each of these would I believe cover the cost of keeping 10 age pensioner couples with change left over. Frasers incidentals apparently would I believe have done that.
