There's been so much information shared about this. Almost every episode I believe. They're on their annual break. Back with new episodes in March

How ironic is that name… Kilmore?

Are we ever going to get new content? I’m beginning to wonder why I pay a subscription.

I practiced commercial law, but nevertheless, in a law degree (when I did it) Criminal Law and Evidence were both year long subjects.
I clearly remember a case in Evidence where the dangerous acts of a driver noted in the lead up to a subsequent offence were admissible to show a pattern of behaviour. And under the Victorian Crimes Act 1958, culpable driving is a serious indictable offence that can carry a sentence in excess of 10 years.
However, I believe that law reform is needed. In the case here, it was obvious Kilmore was driving in a manner intended to cause an accident. And his subsequent history adds to this.
I think the law should provide that if a driver intentionally operates a vehicle with the aim of causing what is reasonably likely to be a major accident where the death of one or more persons is reasonably foreseeable, then the charge should be murder.
Kilmore ought to have been sentensed to a minimum of around 24 years imprisonment and banned from driving for life.
Tired? Hyped up? Guilty.
Once a few are locked up for life, the industry should reform...but it won't, and if it doesn't then criminal liability in the form of corporate manslaughter on shipping companies (dedicated or hiring independent operators) should be part of additional reforms in cases where unreasonable working demands are placed on drivers or a non liveable amount is paid for the transport contract...also of course, the back door to unreasonable working demands.

In Australia we call Valentine's Day "Croc Sunday" because traditionally it was when Aussie couples went out to local Creamie Spots (ice cream parlors) to share banana split sundaes. In the old days, it was called "Banana Sunday" with a bit of a wink, but since the holiday has become a bit more kid-friendly, Creamie Spots started drawing little croc faces on the bananas with fudge. There's even kits you can buy to make Crockies at home, though most people agree that going to the Creamie and seeing the rows and rows of Crockies on the bar waiting to be served is part of the magic of the day.
We don't walk about Wombat Wednesday.
