Qld Coroner calls to end chases of drunk drivers

[EDManual]

This guy has a brain! Bit different from nearly everyone else in any public office.....

I like this comment
""Perhaps the only thing more dangerous than a drunk driver on the road is a drunk driver being chased by the police," Mr Barnes said in his report.

And this :
"It is a sad irony that deaths and injuries can occur when well-intentioned constables become so fixated with pursing petty criminals they forgo their first duty to preserve community safety."

So True! Its like this : A particular drunk doing 60 wont stop(and most likely wouldnt crash (lets face it, what, at a guess 1 in 100,000 drives where theres a drunk actually end in a crash?), so does 200 to get away in a silly attempt at a risk rating of what 90% of crashing, kills himself and others.
