LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:
Fatality Free Friday yesterday (May 28) was a constant reminder to be aware of the fatal five causes of road fatalities that are: drugs/alcohol; speeding; fatigue; seatbelts and distractions.
Queensland is not off to a good start when into the first five months we have had 100 casualties (impacted families), when we had 76 the same time last year.
Lots of questions need to be asked in regards to why this is happening, despite all the road safety education, police enforcement and messages going into the community?
What inspires someone to get drugged or drink and drive onto our roads putting their lives and the lives of others at risk?
