I agree with what he said regards the safety features are the Ravenswood intersection.
There are enough signs and warning devices to indicate to any motorist the dangers of not beyond these.
However, I completely disagree with his inference of a few elderly drivers causing these accidents.
I travel this road frequently and get passed within the 80km area very often by drivers both men and women who certainly are not elderly.
Yes, I am an elderly driver but I have an impeccable driving record because I obey all the rules. Oh, I forgot to say a wayward kangaroo did jump into the side of my car some time back.
