City roads are dangerous. Take GoGetter Michael Roseworn's experience in Sydney. He was driving near Broadway during peak-hour when, seemingly out of nowhere, a sheep ran onto the road. Michael hit the brakes but was unable to avoid a collision...

GoGet CarShare Well, this is on on my mind.....www.walkscore.com.
I'm lucky enough to be a 97 - what's your score?

Hmmm. I'm a 14. Very old and dodgy data though. And who really needs to live near a hardware or a pharmacy (or even a cinema, a cafe or a bookshop....heavy sigh...)

Darren....I think they need to combine this metric with a 'how often do you get woken by drunks late a night' score...I reckon the higher the walkscore, the higher the pisshead pedestrian score..at least thats the way it sometimes feels in the middle of Newtown! Alex, I'm sure you feel the same some days.

When you get wound up....its time to act. So I did. Below is the text from a letter we sent to our fleet provider Toyota recently regarding their sponsorship of the NRL. If you agree, we'd love you to let Toyota know...

Dear Nic Lowe and Bruce Jeffreys,
I acknowledge receipt of your letter dated May 18th, regarding Toyota
sponsorship of the NRL.... See More
Naturally, we are disappointed that a small group of players can cause so
damage the image of the game enjoyed by such a cross section of the
community.
The NRL administration are very focussed on player education and ridding
the game of any loutish behaviour and have an extensive programme around
promoting cultural change in the game.
I have attached some details on
some of those programs for your perusal.
Toyota have taken the view, at present, to support the administrators on
their attempts to rid the game of any loutish behaviour and any activities
that involve violence or abuse to women.
We have, however, put the code on notice that the sponsorship is designed
to bring enjoyment to the community and letters such as yours, from
important customers, are of grave concern to Toyota.

I hope that our current position will not cause Toyota to lose a loyal
customer and I have briefed our Fleet Department about your concerns and
are keen to contact you both direct to discuss further.
Thank you for making your strong views known to us as it is important that
we are aware of the attitudes and views of our customers before making... See More
future sponsorship decisions.
Yours sincerely,
Peter Webster
Divisional Manager
