This article was the front page lead story from "The Kimberly Echo" newspaper (I'm presuming it's either a Northern WA or NT paper) on Thursday, 15th July 2004.

Talk about unbelievable!

You'd think they would have inpounded it a little before 12 charges.... Maybe after 5 or something you would get the idea that its not going to stop.
Can't belive how high all the readings were, pretty much all more than twice the limit.

Two possibilities:

1. The drivers got drunk to blur the shame of driving the Magna.
2. Getting busted DUI is less shameful then geting busted DAM (Driving A Magna).

3. Revenue Raising - nah that wouldn't happen

The Kimberley Echo is the local newspaper for Kununurra in WA.
About 600kahs west of Katherine, and about 45 kahs from the NT/WA Border.

I used to live there and this sort of thing used to happen all the time.

i know this statement could be considered racist, but i have $10 that says at least 8 of the ten drivers of the magna were of aboriginal or torres-strait islander decent...

Damn, so that means that the cops weren't only harrassing law breaking magna drivers, they were harrassing native australians,
all we need now is a P plate on the magna, and the cops were obviously targetting it for the Ps.......
