Driving a car now seems to be more dangerous than it used to be and no one seems to follow the traffic rules. I know people are in a hurry but to speed like they do is becoming so common place that no one seems to even know what speed they are doing (or care). I live in a beach suburb of Adelaide, and I can tell you visitors to this area are so anxious to find a park or to be "seen" curzing the streets in their "hotted up cars" they have completley ignored the fact that there are people who actually live here. It has almost come to the stage that most of we residents stay home to avoid the crowds and dangerous streets. Another thing is that the Police don't seem to be "out and about" during the day when they must be aware of what is going on. I have seen the odd driver being booked at night, but other than that no Police presence. I think all streets in built up popular areas should be 40mph, we would all be a lot safer.
