This pisses off all the car drivers and hence the weaving in and out of lanes...Bracks is a dumb ass cocksmoker who gets chauffered around and doesn't see what's actually happening out on the streets...if this cockhead reduces the limits any more, then we might as well give away our cars and start walking or bike riding everywhere as we'll get there faster...oh and by the way, the CityLink was supposed to decrease traffic travel time...any chance to get more money the c*nt....

Fat-Tony Legacy Donating Member 5,364 Member For: 20y 6m 21d Posted 20/04/07 12:27 AM Posted 20/04/07 12:27 AM Well with any luck the next accident will be 300 people and the whole tunnel will catch fire, and we wont have to worry about it. Did I mention it before, Bracks is a f*ckwit
Space Ace Member 446 Member For: 21y 8m 23d Location: Melbourne, Victoria Posted 20/04/07 12:50 AM Posted 20/04/07 12:50 AM I think 300 is too much old chap (unless they're Spartans) but I'm actually quite surprised there hasn't been more serious accidents to date...the amount of sh*t driving you see every day is quite amazing....what gets me going is that in peak hour, the freaking Domain tunnel is down to 2 lanes to allow emergency access in the left lane...yet you get some smart assess driving in it all the time with their indicator on pretending to merge....fark I hate those *beep*....end rant...

What if they put one of those "Slow vehicles use left lane" signs well before and throughout the tunnel? That works "most of the time" on freeways. Ben

Like our roads are any better anyway! I offer the M5 f*ck up as an example. A road that was 10 years out of date, before the planning even started. And we voted the dipsh*ts back in!!! At least they got rid of the minister for f*ck ups Carl Skully...The whole problem would be averted if f*ckwit truck drivers and self appointed protectors of public safety, get over their ego's, and get the f*ck out of the fast lane. The government has brainwashed them that speeding is the reason for every accident on the road and they are dumb enough to believe it. Its actually morons like them that cause most accidents!Problem is, this is harder to police, and no where near as much of a revenue raiser. Hence no truck lane for you guys...*Steps down from soap box* Edited 20/04/07 02:32 AM by Goobz
