53 Deaths on Oz roads since 19th Dec
53 people have died on AUS roads since 19th December. One driver was clocked doing 175k on a 110k road, instant licence suspension, I think for three months because of the double demerit points system and a $350 fine.

1.26 Million Killed on Roads in 2000
This means that the road kills more people than malaria and puts tens of millions of people in hospital. In fact, in 2000, 1.26 million people died as a result of road crashes. In some low and middle income countries, road crash victims occupy up to 10% of hospital beds.
