        The fact he was given P plate lisence to access his free methadone is the most ridiculous thing I have ever come across...

        Opinion: This tragedy will hopefully encourage magistrates to seriously consider their actions & penalties when continually granting bail to habitual offenders. Im sure that state Governments do not pressure such decisions due to Full jails & costs.

        Hi Paul, just wondering if you can clarify which part of Whitall's criminal record is propaganda as opposed to fact

        There is no evidence in that article as to the cause of the accident.

        Exactly right! He flaunted the legal system! Four jail sentences over traffic offences, one nine-year driving ban + 10 convictions for driving while disqualified.

        Should go to jail and throw away the key. Pity we no longer have the noose.

        He'd have continued to drive, without a licence, he had 10 convictions for driving while disqualified. Four gaol sentences over traffic offences, one nine-year driving ban. You're right, he had no regard for anyone! But the Falkholts paid the ultimate price.
