The Fatal Disconnect: Are You Really as Safe as You Think?

1,314 lives lost in a single year. It’s the highest Australian road toll in over a decade, and the numbers are trending in the wrong direction. But here’s the kicker: while the data shows that risky driving is at an all-time high, 72% of us still believe we are "safe drivers." This week, we’re joined by Russell White, Founder and Chair of the Australian Road Safety Foundation. We’re diving into the "Fatal Five," the normalization of distraction, and the psychology behind why we break the rules even when we know the stakes. From the power of storytelling to the launch of Fatality Free Friday, discover why your "minor" driving habits might be more dangerous than you realize—and what it actually takes to change a culture.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
