This month's winner is Vicki from Clayton South in
VIC.
Vicki's entry - More courtesy towards others
"After a few years of living and driving overseas,
I've come to realise how selfishly Australians drive
these days. We seem to think only of ourselves on the
road. For example, when a line of traffic is creeping
along very slowly, it's easy to stop and allow a waiting
driver to pull in from a side street or driveway.
Once the traffic speeds up again that poor driver will
find it nearly impossible to break into the line of
traffic. We could also be a little more thoughtful towards
drivers at 'Keep clear' zones. It's not necessary for
everyone to creep over to the other side of the zone,
preventing waiting drivers from pulling across the road.
If we all use a little more courtesy towards others
we can keep the traffic flowing better, saving us all
time and money in the end."
Congratulations Vicki! Your prize will be sent out
to you shortly. |
