Is it possible the police may finally get involved or is that asking too much.

Looks like they're putting in place some really great measures to lower the death toll.

Just been to a wedding party this evening. Me and the missus took a taxi as we knew we’d be drinking. Wish I could say the same about a majority of the other guests who were drinking. 

 

Amazing how the government can strike fear in its citizens when it comes to expressing free speech but cant do the same for drunk and/or dangerous driving.

The police will be far too busy making sure damp damsels don't corrupt the morals of youth and shame the nation by exposing a chilled nipple thru a t-shirt, priorities! Death before embarrassment!
