Media genius does transport analysis

Crikey polymath Jeremy Sear wants death-dealing trucks off the road:
Seriously, if you can’t build the necessary rail infrastructure because Australians today are less capable than our ancestors 150 years ago, can’t we at least build freight trucks a separate road or something?
In fact, in the accident to which Jeremy refers, the truck WAS on a separate road to the car with which it collided. Due to circumstances yet to be determined, it crossed from one side of the dual carriageway Hume Highway to the other.

As Jeremy's fellow Green Sarah Hanson-Young says: “Accidents happen.”

A pretty silly argument from Jeremy. Despite perceptions, truck accidents take far fewer lives than those involving only cars. As for building them a 'separate road', you might as well build separate roads for all the cars too.

You lot think every anonymous and pseudonymous commenter who disagrees with you is Jeremy Sear. With paranoid delusions like that, you'd be a psychologist's wet dream.
