Anyone caught doing over 70 in a car or bike- loses their license for a year, anyone caught drunk driving doing over 70-loses their bike or car and license. The vehicle then gets auctioned off and that money goes to a victims fund. Take the vehicle away- will help some.

CADA is a joke !! That organisation needs a serious reshuffle because what the are doing has zero effect !! The point system is a joke too.
We need to go back to 3 years off the road for speeding over 40mph 1K FINE !

If you make the choice to drive recklessly then you assume the risk of death. Period. That’s all there is to it. Choose wisely.

Teenagers are going to be teenagers. We all tampered with our bikes. A stock 50cc Moby was a pretty pityful piece of machinery. Nothing at all like the stock 50cc bikes today.

Bike engines covered with plastic are not easy to see if they have been upgraded. With the Mobys we could not hide what we had done so easily.

Teenagers (14-16 years old) are adding “kits” to their bikes increasing them from 50cc to 60cc and higher. What is being done about getting this stopped? Something needs to be done to stop this.

This morning I saw several bikes speed to overtake us and the bike in front of us. Didn’t matter that it was on a curve or not, that they came too close to the person on the bike. I hope people will slow down and pay attention – why the rush?!

So we might as well tell the govt to take 50% of our salaries while they are it to get all cars and bikes retrofitteed and to then police those than tamper with the devies. Lets also put up a checkpoint at the beginning and end of every parish so the police will know where everyone is at any time! Give me a break mate!!

All of this boils down to human choices. I choose not to get behind the wheel of a car when i am intoxicated. Others do not choose the same. I also choose not overtake and drive recklessly when in my car or on my bike. Some others also do not choose to do the same! Plain and simple.

What we need is the police to police the existing laws that are already in place. Speeding, reckless driving, loud cars, overtakers etc. Nothing new needs to be done, except for seeing the police more on the roads. I have nothing to hide, and i am sure 95% of the rest of us do not either!

the big gorilla in the room is this: until cars and bikes are mechanically governed so that they cannot exceed 30 mph tops along with better and overt policing by the BPS; better driver’s education and better public transportation schedules, this carnage will continue.

Talk talk talk and nothing gets done. This isn’t some new event, its been happening at an elevated rate for years. Drinking and driving is a extremely common thing to do by far too many people.
