I am sure most Rioters would be aware that, here in the ACT, we have the highest proportion of people with tertiary qualifications in Australia. We also have the highest proportion of people with a post-graduate qualification in Australia. One might reasonably assume, then, that there exists a collectively higher IQ in our fair land.
This would likely explain, then, why so many highly intelligent people got into their grey / silver / black / dark red / dark blue motor vehicles this morning and drove to work — in the thick fog — with no lights on whatsoever.
I know that you’re all magnificently intelligent and clever and stuff and that you can see, well, OK in conditions like that. And I can also see that you’re so unbelieveably considerate and thoughtful of other road users. I suppose, then, that in future you won’t mind if I (who can see satisfactorily to operate the vehicle safely as well yet who does have my lights on) fail to render you right-of-way, or merging space, or operate my vehicle without strict lane discipline, or neglects to give sufficent room when changing lanes, or any other courtesy normally offered to my fellow travellers simply because no-one else can see you.
It would seem that intelligence is no substitute for common sense.
T Y F L O . . . please.
