I read the following from a Federal survey of community attitudes to road safety ...
Quote:
There is growing support in the general community for making the penalties for exceeding the speed
limit more severe. The current year result (31% in favour of harsher penalties) confirms an upward
trend from 28% in 2006 and 24% in 2005. A further 11% believe speeding penalties should be made less severe and 52% opt for no change to the current penalties.

Scary!!! Should our road rules be set by popular opinion (that is influenced by indoctrination), or should it be based on serious research and science?
