The green lobby and the likes of Harold Scruby of the "Pedestrian Council" would have us all believe that four wheel drive vehicles kill thousands per year and should be taxed off the road.
While there are better vehicles to trundle around the city in, and I have no interest in getting one (Wouldn't have the time to take it to the bush and use it for what it's designed for), Australians have a right to drive these vehicles. We should not just lie down and let these uninformed idealistic clowns change our way of life, let alone dictate what we can and cannot drive.
It's 4WDs today, it'll be V8s tomorrow, then turbos, and before we know it, we will all be legislated to drive little hybrid cars with GPS tracking and speed limiters, or even worse, we will be herded onto government owned trasnport. (Or more public/private partnership scams to build mass-transit systems).
Imagine picking up a trailer load of fence pailings from Bunnings in a Toyota Prius (Not that I have anything against those cars, I actually think they are a great idea, but I'll CHOOSE if I'm going to drive one, thankyou).
I'm actually beginning to think that the green side of politics is lobbying for anti-independance. They want me to rely on the Government to transport me around. What a joke, ever tried to get to work on a train in Sydney?
Anyway, here is a page from the Australian National Four Wheel Drive Council which covers the lies that are being put forth by the anti-4WD lobby, and illustrates the massive flaws in their argument, as well as touch on a few issues that our anti-4WD friends are obviously unaware of (Or maybe they conveniently over-look them).
