RWDboy Forums Junkie Location: South Australia Registered: July 2002	Re: Cost of rego/license increases. Necessary or revenue raising? Mon, 19 April 2004 02:24 The cost of rego/licensing is clearly revenue raising. I wouldn't mind it if the revenue generated from the roads didn't get put into 'general revenue' in the budget, and then spent on a billion other things. The amount that gets spent on the road is completely independent (and always alot less) than what gets made from the roads. Total it up in your heads, imagine how much money they make from petrol excises, speed cameras, rego & licensing fees etc etc? It's ridiculous how little gets put back into road safety and transport improvement. My impression is that perth has less traffic compared to the eastern states. Partly because perth is better thought out, and partly because the other cities have like 2-3 times the population. It's hard to have good traffic flow when a huge number of people work in a central location. Whereas Perth's centre is fairly small in comparison and also much less 'dense'. Adelaide is a perfect example of traffic gone stupid. There's only 1 million people living in adelaide yet the traffic is balls. All you see around you in the middle of traffic is hundreds of dickheads in 4 litre commodores/falcons with one person per car. If half these people got a motorbike, or used public transport, or just rode a bicycle (which takes like twenty minutes from where most people live) then there would be zero traffic at all. Then people complain about public transport. I read in the newspaper that some lady missed her bus and had to wait twenty minutes for the next one, which then took ten minutes to get to her work. She had the audacity to say 'It would've been quicker just to walk to work'. If it only takes half an hour to walk to work every day, then get out and do some exercise you b****!!!
