Hi Dick,
Sorry to hear about any MB damage, especially when you were stationary!
In Australia snowploughs are rare but SUV's are still in great numbers.
We are more inclined to have the Mitsubishi Pajero or the Toyota Prado - but
I think it is like Gym memberships. we buy them with the intension of using
them!
Then after a couple of years you get over it.
For our mine site work they fit the need well, especially when the
Australian outback gets rain - in the burbs. no.
Driving safety will always be an issue, driver distraction being a major
factor. It is illegal to use mobile/cell phones here when driving, but too
much signage and summer skirts also create issues.
Awareness training for new drivers and TV reminders has to be part way to
the answer.
Take care guys.
