Agreed there are dickheads that treat the road like a racetrack but there are others, the mobile phone users, the mothers that turn around to attend their baby/ young child in the back seat (lost count of the amount of times I've seen that one), heroes with arms hanging out of windows in the fully sick position etc etc that cause alot of accidents.
Most of the above cretins vote for the people that make these idiot laws due to the media driven frenzy on import drivers and I would bet that a fairly large percentage of them are a greater danger on the roads than import enthusiasts.
Would love to know what the kickback is worth to the pollies from the one and only test company
