    When will people learn to slow down and have consideration for others on the road? How many dead people do we need for it to sink in.

    ….and learn how to drive in the correct lane on motorways instead of sitting in the middle lane!!….use correctly/ use indicators and proper lane at roundabouts…..join motorways at full speed and not join at 40km/h…..not use phones when driving……not tailgate…..

    Apart from that we’re a great bunch of lads!

    Sad thing is, it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.. We need enforcement out on the roads, people are not afraid of getting ‘caught’ anymore.. We can bring down drink driving levels to 0%, make the Nct impossible to pass, put more ‘cash’ vans in 50kmh zones.. Waste of time!! More guards on the road is a good starting point.
