Terrible statistics that hide terrible physical and psychological damages and of course, many deaths.
One perfect way of preventing 'pre-loading' by our young, is to institute a maximum on street blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.08. This is the level where a greatly increased chance of pedestrian deaths and injuries kick in.
It sits below the known BAC level of 011-13 associated with acts of alcohol fuelled violence.
$250 to $280 per point above .08 will change behaviour, save lives and save a massive amount of human tragedy, the both Anthony and Ian need to deal with on a daily basis.
A BAC level makes the user think before they drink. It makes them receptive to educational messages because it makes such messages relevant to their lives.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio where are you? I am in Wellington Point and I know of lots of elderly who barricade themselves inside from Friday to Sunday nights.
Basically until Australia has a party to educate the wigged ones [like the French did to remove the aristocracy] the lawful majority will be told to eat cake as they starve because the cost of locking oneself behind bars is so expensive.When I was a lad, the crims were behind bars and not the victims.
