The deadly system of automobile dependency
"Speed is still the major reason why people either get killed or seriously injured in crashes. We can't ignore the facts, and we are seeing a significant increase in death rates around the country. The cumulative effect of 100 dead every month, and 100 hospitalised every day — it's an epidemic. A tragic epidemic...Much of the safety focus is on fatalities, more than 60,000 Australians a year survive crashes on the roads. For many, recovery is a lifelong struggle."

Killer roads
Where is the infrastructure where one does not have to be propelled by fossil fuel at high speed?
Each (new) road should have a shady and separated cycling and walking infrastructure factored in.
Wildlife crossings all along the way.Australia’s road toll continues to rise with 37 additional people killed in 'accidents' compared to the previous 12 months, despite a nationwide target to halve road deaths by 2030.
“The rising road toll came despite a National Road Safety Action Plan target to halve deaths by 2030 and cut serious transport injuries by 30%. In 2023, Australia is unable to adequately quantify the extent of road trauma, or the effectiveness of interventions being deployed to reduce it.”
