And i'm sure the government knows all this. Despite how they might act, they're not completely stupid. Unfortunately, far too many people are already brain washed, and it really surprises me at how many people actually have similar views as our road law creators.
Over christmas, i was at a family lunch, and there were some in laws from Melbourne. And bugger me, they were all brain washed. The topic of speed cameras came up, and they all pretty much had the same reply.... "don't speed, and you won't have anything to worry about"... Fair enough too, however, i hardly call going 5 or 10km/h over the posted limit of 100km/h 'speeding'... What a boring, over controlling life we are all set for!
No one is willing to take responsibility for their own actions anymore, far too many people need some one to hold their hand. Just look at all the stupid law suits. Why does my coffee have to warn me that the contents might be hot?
I wish the government would stop trying to interfere with our lives, but unfortunately, there are too many idiots out there who can't make the right decisions in life, so we need a million rules, taxes, and fines to make sure they do the right thing
As sad as it is, road crashes will happen. People will die. But, pretending that they are trying to save our lives by taking more of our money through increased speed cameras makes it look like they are doing something positive about it all!
