| Re: Impressive Prize Winning Journalism " Mr Johnson said 12 motorcyclists had died this year on WA roads."
And, of course, ALL those deaths were the direct result of stunting. None died from bad road conditions, bad weather conditions, having another vehicle collide with them, failing to correctly take a corner etc...
Getting so sick of this bullshit. Today Tonight obviously has nothing better to do than look for stunna sites and then label all riders under the same tag. Shame..

| Re: Impressive Prize Winning Journalism " WA bike riders continue to beat speed cameras because licence plates are not compulsory on the front of bikes. WA road safety authorities are working with Victorian colleagues on licence stickers and rubber plates to go on the front of motorbikes."
The ismple solution to this, is to chnage the direction in which the camera is pointing... but of course, the problem will be that the driver/rider will have a few extra meters to react and slow down (which I thought was th epoint) however, this loses revenue, and thus is not an option...

| Re: Impressive Prize Winning Journalism Funny thing is.
I recall talkin to my mate in sydney who used to be a cop. He said that in nsw they legally have to take photos from the rear of all vehicles due to some privacy act. |
