Easy Driver

Does driving get any easier?

Nope.

Down here in Melbourne, I have noticed over the past 10 years that the standard of driving seems to be getting worse despite advances in vehicle design, road infrastructure, education and policing.

As a courier, I would often see accidents and events on the road which would make most people shake their head in disbelief and think WTF? Did that just happen?

GM Holden going to China?

It was announced today on the news and confirmed by Holden that Australia's number one selling car, the Holden Commodore, will very likely be no longer manufactured or designed from 2014 here down under.

Can I say that I am not surprised despite being the owner of a Holden car?

The reason I say this is because there has been an enormous shift from buyers into smaller and more fuel efficient vehicles.

Big Money, Big Business and Unions

If you are watching TV or reading the news from anywhere around the world, you will know by now that Qantas has cancelled all flights and grounded them until an agreement is struck between management, workers and unions.

Meanwhile, passengers are stuck all around the world waiting to be redirected to new flights to get them to where they need to be.

What is happening with Qantas is VERY relevant to what is happening around the world in any large global organisation. Qantas cannot compete internationally and would like to move their base of operations offshore to another country.
