Ouch, a couple of times I've felt really tired, before I've driven so gave myself some caffeine and sugar. Plus had some with me so that the effect didn't wear off half way there. Hope she comes out alright.
As for the biker, doing 180km/h is asking for trouble. I'd have been very surprised if he'd lived, he's a bit like the hoon P plater, giveing bikers a reputation not all of them deserve. Sympathy only to family.

Well like what was said on the news tonight a crackdown over the long weekend unlicensed/suspended drivers and those that speed 45klms over the speed limit will be locked up !!!!! Interesting to see what effects that is going to have over easter.

Last time i went down south i drove to margs n back and didnt see one police car no booze bus diddly squat but saw alot of maniac drivers.

Car v something in spearwood Spearwood ave/Barrington SJA and Murdoch 1st off at the scene, just called for wapol.

Can i please tell everyone to please PULL OVER when they feel tired and are behind the wheel.

Early sunday morning on the 25th/3 this year, i did the same as the girl, collected the train barrier which then spun me numerous times accross the left lane and into a light pole before the car rolled, this happen just before the anketell rd off ramp.

I was lucky to walk away with my life and not to have injured or killed anyone else.

Im now 8 grand in debt and regret not pulling over and sleeping.

I never thought it would happen to me but it did, and it can happen to you, and it happens pretty f*cking quick i can tell you.

DONT DRIVE TIRED

take it from me before you too learn it the hard way !

Cheers for the heads up man

I suppose it is a bit hypocritical of us to tell people not to, and then do it ourselves. I certainly don't make a habit of it. I just know that with my luck I'll wake up with the police knocking on my window for a welfare check! But I spose better that than the FRS guy making a cut.

good news the girl is ok was very lucky there was a car right behind her when she hit the railing as seen by the skidmarks on the freeway she was in a hyundai getz a small car so it could of been worse if the car behind was not able to stop intime i towed the car to pickles today it was a right off tore the drivers front wheel strut tower and wishbone clean of so please take care if going away this weekend and dont drive tired

Just like to add my bit.

Like many, i too am working this weekend, and i'd rather not be filming any of you for the evening news (unless it's a 'good news' story of course ).

I'm sure all of our forum members, who are working this weekend with WAPol, FRS, SJA, BFB and any of our volunteer services (hope i haven't missed anyone ) would rather have a quiet and uneventful Easter, thinking about their own families, rather than dealing with trauma, and the emotions of other innocent families.

I know we don't live in utopia, and accidents do happen, but lets all do what we can to help ourselves and those around us.

So: be aware, stay vigilant, and above all travel safe

Heard tonight about an up and coming footballer, for which club I shall not name has had his car rammed, and is now a quadraplegic

Just heard on the news that there were 2 fatals overnight. Our first ones for Easter. Anyone heard what happened?
