Interesting tid bit on road safety....

Deaf ears of government
Back in 2010, a Mercedes-Benz road-safety expert, Dr Ulrich Mellinghoff, caused controversy by suggesting 140km/h would be a safer limit on Australian roads.
Behind closed doors, though, he caused more consternation among politicians at a safety forum, when he told them that, in his experience, there are three methods for reducing road trauma; better licensing, better roads and safer cars.
“The car companies have delivered their end of the bargain, but you, as a government, have utterly failed your population when it comes to the other two,” Mellinghoff told them.
