They are at it again

...especially to those in small cars ...

Maybe that's why i like to drive a big 4WD !

Why don't they make those small cars more expensive, usually driven by young girls out to prove they've got bigger balls than me. BEAM ME UP SCOTTY

This article wasn't written by Paul Keating was it ???

Lets suppose that Bracks is trying to cater to the greens. The ironbox forest issues, otways and management of Vics parks dont seem to cater for the average users needs. Look at the conflicts that have been created between loggers and all other user groups.

Go to QLD and see where you are banned from state forests areas and in also the areas that you are not allowed a dog. Doesnt seem so unreasonable until you see that on the other side of the fence there is cattle grazing and land clearing and dam building.

In one simple swoop they will be able to effectively ban dirt bike riding. One down. Thats leaves horse riders, fourby drivers, family picnicers and prospectors to go. And it will be harder for these people to effectively travel. Its slowly happening. I can understand the intolerance of the groups on the other side of the fence becuase there is plenty of it on this side of the fence too. But none of it can be justified.

I think what’s really so wrong about all this is:

In the past, the majority of cars were all large, and if you go back far enough once upon a time cars were even built like 4x4’s ie. Built on a separate chassis and solid.

It’s only in recent times that there has been a trend towards smaller and smaller (toy) cars.
People have bought these small dangerous cars, because they are cheap to buy and cheaper in fuel costs.

And because they have sacrificed their own safety, they now arrogantly expect everyone else to do the same.

The joke is that they whinge about large vehicles putting them in danger, but yet are quite happy to take passengers in their dangerous cars and put their lives at risk!

And to top it off the Government, who is responsible for letting car manufactures sell these dangerous toy cars, has the audacity to blame large vehicles!

It would be interesting to see what the result of the big scary 4wd scenario would be if these so called plastic toy 4by's and all the shiny toorak tractors that block all roads around my place twice a day taking the kiddies to school were sold without front diffs and tranny cases. Would they be monster trucks or cars certainly not 4wd's. In the eyes of beauracrats if you can't eyeball the sedan next to you then you shouldn't be on the road, what happened to freedom of choice?
