    Show me the evidence that returning or over 40 riders are not over represented in fatalities and I will accept your reality. 20 years ago the same puff pieces were being shown but around 20 something riders and students in particular were over represented. Funny how it's the same group.

    No longer on an active website so we can't get at the document, but a while back Bogan did some excellent work on this that is discussed in this thread.

    IIRC this clearly showed that young riders were proportionally more highly represented. And that was using the government's own numbers, just represented with less bias (e.g. biased by them a very wide age group if it suited their intent to do so).

    This made me laugh ...

    Senior Sergeant Peter van de Wetering recently came off his motorbike, travelling at 70km/h on a country road
    What ?? The cop's a BAB ???? What was he doing falling off at 70 klicks??? Bunnies ...
