Incident in Queensland


I'm surprised that no-one has mentioned this incident yesterday in Queensland.

http://www.9news.com.au/national/2014/09/05/17/15/distracted-driver-almost-speared-by-ute-tray-bruce-highway-crash-sunshine-coast

A case of travelling too fast for the prevailing conditions.

An excellent example of why SA are wise in introducing the "25kph max" at the scene of emergency vehicles. cry

Cheers - John

SA enforce the rule, on our recent trip to SA, the police had a speed camera set up in a road work area.  25 Kph was the limit.
