God, govco really is serious about making someone pay
What a **** fight that would be, and not exactly far fetched.

You may remember (last year I think) the story of a mechanic here in Perth getting done in a Lambo owned by one of his customers. Car was impounded. No if, buts, whatever.
Sure, not a great result for the innocent (that particular time) owner, but that's the law. I'd rather see a few extra people 'inconvenienced' than more people getting away with it and killing others through their stupidity. Maybe I'm getting old, but being the father of small children really chnages your perspective on things.
