Glad you're on the case Jantar. Let us know if you find out anything.

Thanks for bringing this up Jantar, I've just been looking around the safe as site (havent been back there since posting in the thread on the 70kph limit applied to learner licences). Pleased to see that in the thread on the December 2006 Road Safety Policy that they are looking at working on the issues with returning bikers, as this is one of the major areas where accidents are happening.

Yeah - the people the govt consults apparently.
But nobody can tell me how to contact them.

I rang Vege - he might know, but he's out.

Mr Kirk of Motorcycle Safety Consultants - may not be accurate - buts is a name to start with.

And Finn from BRONZ had a handle on someone too - ping him via bronz.org.

Vege suggested Mr Cooper-Smith from the importers association would know.

I don't have his email.
