The News services in Adelaide have been reporting the unusualy high road toll in South Australia so far this year....
It is almost double what it was this time last year...personaly I figure that is because there are now more people than ever using the roads. The News services are claiming the figures nearly doubled because the increased fatality figures are made up of drivers under the age of 25 years, or their passengers, killed in the accidents. However questions are being asked in the Media at the moment about the new legislation concerning P plate drivers in SA...and why it has not yet been acted upon by parliment, in view of the rising Death rate on SA roads of the 25 years and under age group. The New Legislation before Parliment at the moment... No turbo powered....no sports V6 powered cars....no V8 motor cars to be driven by P platers....also supervised driving increased from 6 months to 12 months.... It will be interesting to see how the South Australian Parliment reacts to the media pressure, in the comming weeks.... Cheers all |
