slagging off 4wds again

He must have been in a Doctor's waiting room. There is no other excuse for reading such a rag, and even that's a little flimsy.

good point. the article is slagging off 4wds in particular but uses the example of a child falling out the side door of a meteor sedan to put the point accross that reversing sensors would have saved her. I know it would be horrendous to run over your or someone elses child. but how would sensors on the rear of a vehicle save you if you fell out the side door and were run over by the drivers side front wheel.The child was 3 and the parent did not even do the seat belt up or check if it was done up. the article then went on about how dangerous 4wd's are because you cant see behind them then continued on about the increased damage in collisions etc. It did have a few good points but was a thinly vieled attack on 4wd's using an accident involving a car and the parents failure to actually check if the doors were closed and the childs seatbelt done up before they drove off, to wind the emotions up at the start of the article. I checked the web site but there is nothing to link to on it and I dont know if my soliciter is good enought to scan the article and post it here

problem is if they did report it they would say the child only survived because a 4WD wasn't involved so either way 4WD's get the blaime
