DEAR EDITOR,
I have written about this issue before, and absolutely nothing was done. Yet, here we are again, because I refuse to accept wrong behaviour as the new norm. Every weekday morning I sit in traffic at the western side of the Harbour Bridge, queuing to get over the bridge.
Most times it will take me 40 minutes to get over the bridge – on occasions even over an hour. If this was the reality for everyone, then fine, so be it. But it is not. While over a hundred cars are patiently in the line, the police will let anyone who is their friend, neighbour, etc., to jump the line and go to the front. They allow these cars to drive on the wrong side of the road.
Not simply a few cars. One morning I counted over 40 cars jumped the line and passed me. The daily frustration is indescribable. Even persons who are known to me are being allowed to jump the line, and these persons are of no high position in Government, or anything of the sort. Will the Divisional Commander sit back and let his subordinates do whatever they want?
This is the last straw, the next step is to make a complaint to the Office of Professional Responsibility.
Yours truthfully,
Jason Lowe
