Pollies won't do anything about it as the revenue from law-breaking drivers makes them a lot of money, but push a lot of pressure on them like what Skaife is doing and they will, particularly if it means votes in an election

You wont change the current crop, its too late...
The only hope is a gradual and progressive change of conditioning of what's considered acceptable road behaviour and attitude..
Only then will i even remotely begin to feel safe sharing roads with people doing 140+ KPH...
I agree with Skaife in theory, he has some great ideas, but the problem lies with those who disregard common sense and proper attitude...

Frankly these kinds of people scare me at 80kph... It will take decades to change...
