Odds and evens.. on the road

This was tried in Greece. Everybody there just went and bought 2 cars, so ended up just making it worse.

Monorail. Monorail. Monorail. Monorail. Monorail.

I think Minister John Hargreaves is a epic FAIL! Fix potholes, speed up road work, traffic lights ect..

He must of thought of this great idea on the plane trip back because he 4got to write his report on y tax payers paid for him to go there and have a glance at the building process.

I agree VY. that will just encourage me to buy a second car as well.

agree. Explain your taxpayer funded jaunt, then resign Hargreaves.

out of touch.

Hargreaves doesn’t take any notice of the “only drive if you’re not pissed” rule, so obviously the “odds and evens” rule won’t apply to him either.

tee hee hee.

Only for Lesbians bourke…

Geeeeeeeezzzzz!!!!! You’d think with this sort of outcry that he’d suggested the one-child policy!

I can only say this: HAH!

What was this clown doing in China anyway. A trip funded by ACT ratepayers.

The ACT Government has no legitimate reasons for travelling on junkets to China.

The London Circuit Soviets would love to ban cars entirely, that’s one way of getting people on the utopian buses, and warding off the evil climate change spirits.

Hang on a tick, I’ll be fine: one of my number plates has an odd number, the other an even! Thanks to the government who implements such a scheme, though, for making me drive the V8 every second day, instead of only once or twice a week.

This is laughable. I drive each day so I can drop my kid at childcare and then drop my wife and work, and pick them both up in reverse at the end of the day. This means the wife and I don’t both need to drive each day. Also, I live in NSW, so there’s no viable bus service anyway.

Will this mean I can only drive my car to the border?? In that case I suggest Mr Hargreaves needs to build a bus interchange on Canberra Ave at the Border and provide me with free bus trips.

Otherwise he can contact my boss in Sydney and tell him why I can only work every second day.

For those trying to find the story, it was in yesterday’s Canberra Times (page 10). Took until this morning to be posted.

Totally agree with danman and hingo. Also I’m in the SES so need to be able to get to HQ when needed. Or maybe Mr Hargreaves only wants his storm damaged house fixed on even days of the month 😉

We’re not an over polluted city, we don’t have a pending olympics, we don’t have a good public transport ssytem and we don’t have overcrowding on our roads. This proposal is utterly stupid.

How would one get to work as I now do at 0645 ?

Action busses are laughable – spesh from Ngunnawal.

John’s been sipping again.

F**k off and fix potholes instead of trying to be a social engineer

I’ll restrict my driving to every second day if I only need to go to work every second day. Otherwise, I have no alternative.

Canberra is a bit different from Beijing. Canberra hasn’t got 9234523923423234923 billion residents producing 123123121233 million babies an hour.
