I put this as a tiny_url because the title is mildly offensive, and this may be a family site !

Fantastic!

The title given to Rudd was I think entirely apt! :)

Finally got around to reading this one. Agreed totally :)

However it is sad that the ('speed kill') propaganda has led some gullible people to truly believe that if they simply travel more slowly they will somehow be magically safer. The very necessary and very essential 'driving to conditions', education and engineering, brings with it great safety on many levels, is totally lost on them.
