It’s the dumb ones that are always the evidence in favor of “hold my hand” laws.

Didn’t we hear a similar story to this here in the states? A few months back?

The 30-can beer case was strapped in between two adults sitting in the back seat of the car. The child was also in back, but on the car's floor.

Wait. A case has 30 cans in Australia?

I got no time to worry about some damn kid. I'm moving to Austalia!

Near Sacramento a couple of months back, there was a guy who was injured when he drove his car into a tree. He wasn’t wearing a seatbelt but his 12-pack was buckled in. I don’t think the story made it out of town...
