In 2013, 40 motorcycle riders and pillions were killed. Of these fatalities, 45% were single vehicle crashes and, of those, 44% occured on a road with a 100km/hr speed limit. blah blah stuff

Methinks somebody at TAC is not checking the Website content as they should.  Might email them tomorrow and see how long this stays.



Marcus, if haven't got something better to do, you can come and do an oil & filter change for me.

Much more interesting to say nothing.
Then we can see how long it stays there.

Nice to see how much they really care about motorcycle fatalities etcetera etcetera etcetera.

You can be sure it doesn't take them a week to process the speed camera pictures and Cops' ticket books.
