The stupidest thing is though if p-platers are so dangerous by imposing a passenger limit you will be putting more on the road. Doubling the hours to 100 for l-platers means shit all to the honest ppl like me who actually did fifty hours will be disadvantaged I could of passed the test after say 20. The ppl that fudge their hours now still will ans thus it has fuck all effect in helping improve driver training, the problem lies in the ppl that don't complete the hours and if they are still not completing the hours it has nil effect. Night time curfews are the biggest load of shit ever, in other countrties they talk about reducing accidents by 30%, well if you take 8 hours out of a fucking day you'd hope you'd reduce the toll especially when they are driving for 33% less time thus it is even having an even proportional effect. The only reason the government is focusing on p-platers at the moment is that it takes the focus of the trains hospitals and the fact that many of sydney's roads are just b-grade. The main road in Campbelltown, Campbelltown is an absolute shitter it has been for years and yet they won't fix it up. The truth is they need to impliment better driver training enforcing ppl to undergo advanced driver training courses and the like. The media has a lot of impact on this subject and there beat up has caused mass hysteria about how dangerous p-platers are. They talk about the spate of accidents last week, two woopdy fucking do involving p-platers, and it had been ages since the last. The third was a so called experienced driver in his 30's that will not be affected by the new legislation anyway. I agree with limiting the power to weight ratio of cars for p-platers but most of the other options are utter bs. They want to reduce drink driving by incoruaging designated drivers but how can one be a designated driver when you can only have one person in your car. The new system will see a massive collapse in profits for pubs and clubs cost employees and universities money through wasted time with them having to fill in form saying that such and such an employee/student will be exempt from your bs legislation cos he/she has to work/study. As has already been said even limiting power just pushes the problem back until ppl are off there p's. Another problem with the proposed ideas is generally the legislation cannot be back dated thus any changes will only affect people getting there p's after the legislation is brought in, how do police tell the difference do we bring in blue p plates for the new drivers. An article written by Miranda Devine in The Sun herald also poses a legitimate argument for p-platers. When they increased the number of years on your p's to three it greatly increases the number of ppl on there p plates. Yet as percentages say there is catually less p-plater fatalities per 100000 p-platers than there was in 1990. It has dropped from around 35 to 19 per 100000 this alone is only .019% so I's hardly call it an alarming figure. Considering how many youths die from sucide and drug related incidents I think the government needs to reaim its focus. [Updated on: Mon, 29 November 2004 00:29] [Report message to a moderator]
