An ad for an Injury Lawyer under this post seemed appropriate

Cue talk of Victoria worse than North Korea, Russia because of calls for lower speed limits.
But whaddabout our freedoms??!!!
There, saved people from the effort of typing it. Pardon me for being cynical.
Of course we need lower speed limits but even bicycle riders don’t always support them, so what hope is left?

Lower speed limits are not the answer to the problem of fundamentally schitt steering wheel attendants.
I had a thought, but it got run over as it crossed my mind.

I can see in the inner north of Melbourne that the lowering of speed limits on side streets as pretty much cleaned up those streets of the nefarious to and fro of cars! Now it is the cyclists on their Fitzy-Fixies who are going well over 30km/h in limited zones, but cars...obviously 30km/h is way too slow for the frisky, latté-clutching bohemians, and they now either walk, ride, scooter or skate (roller or board).
