after years of stringent speeding ticketing and substantially lowering the speed limit, the road toll has actually increased. What does it take for these idiots to realise that it is not working, that speed isn't the major problem and they are failing .it is so obvious that it is not working that the govt is now spending tax payers money on adds to convince us in the face of the obvious that it is necessary.it is one thing to spend money on adds to teach people to drive safely but it is totally over the top to try to convince us of their failed policy's . this is basically just govt propaganda at our expense .and what about the millions of dollars taken off poor people for miner infringements apart from taking money out of circulation and hurting the economy it is also hurting some of the poorest people in our society. in civilised countries fines are based on peoples incomes but here of coarse the rich don't give a shit it is just small change to them. while for poor people it is a major financial problem. of coarse all of this is irrelevant really as the real reason for all this is nothing to do with road safety and everything to do with instilling a fear of authority
