So by the same logic, you should be allowed to put some kind of pedestrian-killing spikes on the front of your car just cos you want to?
I dont agree with fishing rod holders etc
Vehicles (that drive on public roads regulated by governments) are designed to have crumple-zones for a reason. Putting a bull bar on your car negates the crumple-zones that have been designed for driver, passenger and pedestrian safety.
A 66 Mustang, 57 chev, XY GT, etc etc etc have crumple zones as you call them?
If the government bans them and you need a bull bar for your off-road bush-bashing then fair enough but you should get a trailer to transport that vehicle while on public roads - just like people do for off-road bikes, tractors, back-hoes, combine harvesters, ride-on lawn-movers and other vehicles that are not safe for public roads, etc etc etc
Maybe we could put street lights every 100 mtrs and pedestrian lights every 1km on all our regional and rural roads. Another levy maybe similar to the milk one we still pay.
Or maybe we could get bull bars like roof-racks - that can be installed and removed easily - if you need them off-road work but not on roads then why not whack 'em on and pull them off when you need to?
Theres an idea :blink:
