This accident occurred yesterday coming uphill just past the third bend from Smithfield. Fortunately both occupants are in hospital in a stable condition in spite of a crushed cabin. For the Labor Main Road Minister Mark Bailey to insist no new road to Cairns from the Tablelands is needed for another 30 years is the height of stupidity and ignorance.
Labor Member for Barron River Craig Crawford said yesterday he wants to take control of the truck industry then put driverless trucks onto the range which he says will reduce accidents.
We can only assume he wants to sit at the bar under his home and remotely drive 50 tonne trucks with his $30M stop go traffic control system about to be installed along the range road.
We are wondering if he needs a truck licence to play video games with trucks?

Never make the presumption that pollie’s are stupid, or at least never make the presumption that their handlers are stupid. It’s US who are stupid to sit back and allow this rampant bull shit to continue. That political power comes out of the barrel of a gun is the primary reason why we were divested of our guns, and we allowed THAT to happen also. Now we see the chess move that was in the wings when that happened.
It was said elsewhere on Cairns News, that the ‘powers that be’ have all the money and the guns. How true and prophetic was that?
True that the down trodden in South Africa, without guns, eventually got rid of apartheid, but it took in excess of 25 years (Mandela), I can’t wait that long, I’ll be 105 by then.
This sounds very much like it’s from the old Goons album called ‘How to win an election’
Nice Kev. Ed
Nothing will change as long as we have these three corrupt Parties involved ,they all have to go but we are running out of time , if they get there way pushing these lethal injections there will be no one left . The range is the least of your problems . What these TRAITORS ARE DOING IS DISGUSTING and they dont give a shit about your lives ,your, roads and you mean nothing to them, they have an agenda and the population and there welfare means shit to them THATS OUR PRIORITY GET RID OF THESE GENOCIDLE MANIACS. I have driven trucks up and down that range for probably 30 + years and touch wood never had a problem , its just bad luck or some dickhead in a car has done something stupid and you have to swerve to miss the wanker so I reckon the range is the least of your worries at the moment it will be there we may not if this shit isnt sorted out our lives depend on it .
These people are absolute idiots. Were they REALLY elected or installed? I really wonder… After all that’s happened in the US, these imbeciles actually want to bring Dominion voting machines here…automate the cheating….yeah, makes sense.
Can’t get the video to play on firefox, works on brave.
No Upper House in Qld gov could be the problem. Maybe get Rudd to fix it up, he can fix anything.

If the state premiere stopped spending money on useful bloody things like the Olympic Games down south and spread some of the money up here there would be no need for this stupid prick to be spouting his bullshit….. or all politicians should take a pay cut.
By considered opinion is they are well versed in Agenda 20/30.The sustainability groups do not intend more and better roads , they want less roads , more bike and walk tracks..And definately less people, which of course is the project they are working on right now. Which unfortunately working extremely well. Oh and do not forget , they do not want that dirty old petrol and diesel or our dirty old C02.The trees need it .O but do not worry about them.
I do not mean to be rude, but I do not think these people are very bright.
Are all politicians this bloody stupid ?
Crawford needs to be shown the door.
