On January 1st, 2021, Brussels introduced a 30 km/h (18 mph) citywide speed limit.
Within one year, overall speeds decreased 9%, collisions 22%, fatalities 50%, and traffic noise up to 50% (depending on the surface).
Journey times by car were identical or even slightly shorter.
Former Deputy Liberal Leader Fred Chaney has lashed out at Liberal moderates for failing to stand up to the Government on issues like robodebt and climate change.

@Coles your customers have had enough time. Your decision is reprehensible. This customer of decades will take my custom to Woolworths over your decision not to #banthebag
