Ridiculous press release

[Smoke Pursuit]

My point was related back to the media, not the fact that it was acceptable, but the fact that there are far worse things happening on our roads which the government seem to just forget about..... In QLD there is no limit on speed for L / P platers, they can travel at the signed limit whether it be 100 or 110 km / hour.. sorry for getting that part a little confused. I know of young people that drive around on their Learners with no adults with them all the time, I think it is a joke on their parents behalf but they just don't seem to care.

There are alot of factors that would have to be considered before anyone really could make judgement on how serious this particular case was.... The consideration of the Highway (which i know nothing about) along with the time, the amount of traffic on the road along with the vehicle he was driving would all have to be considered to determine how great the risk was, even though obviously he was breaking the law. It does spark the question however of whether or not PARENTS need to be made aware of the risks associated with letting their children do silly things in cars.
