    Lightbulb Where to find this information??

    Hi All,

    With all the recent talk of crash stats in Victoria (which I think is crap anyway) I wanted to find the following information:

    How many new licenses per month & per year (Covering Car, Bike & Truck)
    How many new rego's per month & per year

    For the crash stats I want to find out how many were:
    Drunk
    Unlicensed
    Un-rego'd
    L platers
    P platers
    Fully licensed

    I have been searching for this info online for a while now & I am not turning up anything. Any idea where I can get this info or whom I should be writing to, to ask for the info & to have it highlighted more?

    Personally I think those numbers are all hidden to give a worse view of our road & traffic situation then it really is.

    Get in touch with the department of propaganda, misinformation and social engineering. They're right next door to the speed camera justification bureau.

    Two places I suggest - Australian Bureau of Statistics, and Monash University Accident Research group. I doubt you will find anything from the State Government!

    Cheers - couldn't find anything on the VIC police website.

    I'll see how I go with Australian Bureau of Statistics, and Monash University Accident Research group tomorrow - but I think some of the info will have to come from Vicroads - of course - that is if they will release it??

    I am willing to bet they hand out over 1,000 new licenses in this state in a week easy. So 2 or 4 more on top of the road toll from last year really ain't so bad.

    Write a letter to the state minister responsible, set out your questions. The letter will go to Vicroads and if they're anything like RTA there's a road safety department full of people obsessed with this stuff. They'll get the info for you and the minister will send you it back.

    Or give Vicroads a call and ask to speak to someone in road safety.

    Or call the Motor Accidents Authority.

    Well - asfter getting asked lots of questions why I wanted the nifo - turns out that Vicroads are fairly helpful when I asked

    Emails sent - waiting for details. Then I am shipping them off to every major news paper & ACA program plus my local news papaer. I am willing to bet that the stats will show that with the increase of people no the roads the road toll is actually very, very low. Time will tell

    Cheers all.
