something funny I found, everyone who knows me knows that my biggest hatred is 90% of the stupid, overinforced, revenue raising traffic laws that exist in QLD and Australia.
Qld's Minister for transport Paul Lucas, who some time ago was found to have speeding tickets accumilated, that he blamed on his sometimes driver was demoted from his position and had to give public speaks about how what he did was wrong etc.
He was replaced by the new minister for transport Rachael Nolan, who prior to even being selected had 3 speeding fines. After being in position, she has recieved no less than 5 seperate speeding offences.
This is the lady who is advertising that speed kills, that the laws need to be toughened. Her 200k+ yearly salary makes it easy to pay the fines. But her reputation has taken not so much as a knock, as labor QLD continues to employ friends and family, who are uneducated, unsuitable for the rolls they fill, and should ultimately step aside and stop ruining our country.
Australia is so far over-regulated its not funny, and I for one am absolutely sick of it.
Soon we will need foot path lisences and a bus permit.
Theres a $100 fine for skateboarding without a helmet. Hows skateboarding any different to jogging, your just an inch higher from the ground. Will joggers have to wear helmets in the future.

The queensland government has serious issues. They tax our cars when we park, tax them when we move, they tax our petrol, tax everything we put in our lungs. They tax our food, our money and on top of all that they have a stupid "Speed kills" campagine getting around and they tax us when we prove it doesnt.
