Drunk driver strikes and disables 3 people. Drunk driver had her license suspended 4 times. Drove unlicensed. Rammed a closed gate when denied entry to a party and sent 3 people flying. Blood alcohol reading between 0.184 and 0.189.

Prediction: fine only for driving unlicensed.

Like, if we're going to have a death penalty, this is the kind of thing it should be for (I recognize this is Australia). Like, there's no reforming that.

She would have ridden an emu into those people and it would likely have kicked at least one of them to death.

Not my own picture but a promotional one, but we use one of these (Thule Coaster XT) to take the kids to daycare on our way to work. It's also great when we go grocery shopping, because you can easily detach it from the bike, then it becomes a big stroller that you can take into the store. It has even has a small 'trunk' behind the bench for the groceries. Are these a thing at all in the US?

E: it's also surprisingly light!



yeah, i have one of these and it rules. Only downside is i live in central florida where it's a temperate 90 degrees in the winter and 85% humidity. I'd rather live in nevada, at least that's a dry heat.

Sadly I only get to use it for pleasure biking because there's no services within a 45 minute bikeride of my house and the roads are 60+mph with no sidewalks. Kids love it and I'm sure the dog will too when we get a chance to take him.

Fine, have her watched like he was watched for his whole life to insure she never gets into the driver's seat of a car ever again, and it's totally doable.
