- Summary:
-
"CARS was founded on July 7, 1984 with the original intention of acting as a road victim support group. But it was soon realised that there was yet a lot to be done to persuade governments and the courts that a road victim is a victim of crime too, not just someone who was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. CARS campaigned strongly for the introduction of Random Breath Testing (RBT), and thanks to the efforts of CARS' founder Phyl den Ronden, it was finally introduced, thus saving about 100 lives per year. One of the ways of campaigning was the erection of a mock graveyard at various centres around Queensland. The fledgling group began extensive research into road trauma prevention and deterrent-effective sentences for criminal use of a motor vehicle resulting in death or serious injury. Submissions for both of these outcomes are ongoing. CARS also produced a journal, copies of which are available elsewhere on this site."
