Victoria is that low cos they don’t fuck around when it comes to driving fines. The speed limit means limit, and they’re cracking down hard on drivers using phones.
I mean,Australia has way less snow than the US, that definitely has to account for a chunk of the difference in our numbers.
Mississippi gets negligible amounts of snowfall and it rarely sticks.
Im not saying its THE cause, just that the US as a whole has to regularly deal with a potential cause of accidents that is almost non-existent in Australia.
We also have a significantly lower amount of bear attacks and it has nothing to do with the quality of our bear management programs.
but significantly more dropbear attacks. perhaps that puts the fear into you and keeps you driving better.
