Today when listening to the radio i herd 2 very interesting facts relating to road crashes.

#1, The number of young people dieing on our roads has reduced by 11%.

#2, Around 50% of all crashes are caused by people not paying attention.

Just shows you how the government/police only search for a scapegoat(hoons,speeding,young people) when trying to explain why w.a has such a high road toll instead of doing stuff to fix the problem.

they would claim that is due to the hoon law coming in

^^ no shit. thats what i cant stand driving to and from Bunno... too many pingpingpingpings going 10km (or more) under the speed limit ... (for those who dont know, theres mostly single lane, no overtaking, roads down there)
fuckin infuriating.
i dont mind going the speed limit, but ppl going slower piss me right off! lol
