Maybe so, but if you are old enough, and I am, to remember when there was no Yarra Bike Path, it was a worn track in the grassy bank, used only by 'dweebs' on their bikes, with megaphones, talking to the rowers. No helmets back then either, and the…

What happens after he's out, and after the two years suspension? Does he just get his license renewal in the mail, or does he have to prove himself worthy of controlling a potentially deadly piece of machinery?
