So last week five teenagers died in a car crash. The driver was on his red Ps.
Since the crash there have been calls for tighter controls on P-Platers driving.
The controls are not the problem.
The problem is, the driver was drunk (nearly four times over the legal limit for a fully licensed driver) and had four passengers when he should have had one. Oh, and the fact that the driver was doing 140km/h.
I am tired of all new drivers being punished for one idiot's mistake.
How much tighter can VicRoads make the restrictions for P-Platers? Make their cars have a speed limiting device fitted? So on freeways they cause congestion from driving too slowly?
Or having breathalyzer locks required? Which are not 100% accurate.
Not all of us want to drink, then hop in our cars and speed home. Drink driving and speeding happens in adults, too.
