Perhaps they should address congestion, not how many wheels are driving a vehicle. Ridiculous.

Poll: Should large 4WDs be banned from some Australian cities?
Yes = 69%
No = 31%
Total votes: 803.
No change after 911 votes, still the same 69% yes.
They had the same thing in Holland: ban the big cars from Amsterdam.
The roads in Europe are not build for bigger cars so it makes sense, different then here in Australia.
Our neighbour had a Jeep Cherokee and it was huge. We drove a Pontiac Firebird which was a big car compared to the Fiat Uno's, Opel (Holden) Corsa's etc.
But here, the Jeep is a small car. Even our Surf looks bigger.
Hey sensational journalism. Lets get a photo of a hummer squeezing between cars on a one way street. God I hate the media.
Lets just ban Hummers - including the stretched ones - WTF!
EVERY other 4X4 is 'small' by definition compared with those bits of over-rated iron! >:D

Hi
From 802 votes to 2136 and not a flicker of a change in the percentage, I have refreshed the page many times this morning with no percentage of movement.
Looks like a FIXED poll.
Ray
Yeah definately fixed poll, still 69%.
Love some of the comments to: "I hate seeing bull bars on them. You want to reduce road deaths. Get rid of bull bars on 4x4."
hahahahahahahahahahahahahha
I thought this had something to do with the "Hilton" version of Paris. ;D
Thank you Chalton Heston " From my cold dead hand " >:D :cheers:
