Roadkill 🇦🇺
Just a happy little Vegemite.
Perhaps they are just talking to pedestrians and cyclists that are in a world of their own? Not everything to do with the copers has to do with fines.
The number of pedestrians I see crossing roads with their heads glued to their phones, cyclists at night with no lights or cruising through red lights, groups riding 4 abreast on narrow, winding and hilly 100kmh roads (just a few examples) is astonishing.
Like it or not vehicles will always exist and it is up to everyone to play their part in not being a danger to anyone else or themselves.
Yes there are a lot of reckless, careless, distracted or entitled drivers but there are also pedestrians and cyclists that fit squarely in one or more of those categories.
I say this as someone who has been severely injured on my bicycle as the result of a hit and run, but also continues to ride. I also ride motorcycles and drive over 1000km per week for work for over 40 years, avoiding idiots multiple times a day, be they driving, walking or riding.
Perhaps we all need to be more spatially aware, courteous and in less of a hurry with more sense of self preservation, regardless of our mode of transport.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. ✌️
Actually looks more like “Get in mah belly” Yummo.
Also South East Asia - bucket of water with a plastic cup next to the hole in the floor. I don’t have a problem dribbling water down my buttcrack with my right hand while scrubbing my clacker valve with my left han, but squatting over a hole in thefloor is hell on the knees when you are nearly 2m tall.
The education should be "everyone and everything on the road is trying to kill you. I think jaywalking rules may be an american thing. But simply Cars are more noticeable visibly and audibly, pedestrians can stop and change direction orders of magnitude faster than cars. Do I think built up urban areas should discourage car use? Yes
Well with so many people living in their cars I reckon a family of four would sleep comfortably.
Unfortunately they seem to be mainly owned by arrogant wankers.
So friggin cool. Modern bits but looks 100yrs old. I want one, but may not be able to afford one. What does something like this cost?
