Mate? You guys look like 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: you've had an incredibly busy weekend. Let's take a look 10 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: at Friday night. To begin with, a fifty two year 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: old female fell off an e scooter at the Darwin Waterfront. 12 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Cruise responded to that report around nine point 13 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: thirty pm. Unfortunately the writer wasn't wearing a helmet and 14 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: as a results, you've received quite serious head injuries. She 15 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 1: was treated and transported through to Ardie Hayks in a 16 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: serious condition. And then later that night, just after midnight 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: on Mitchell Street and on CBG, a fifty year old 18 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: male was also riding in the scooter and look like 19 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: he wasn't wearing a helmet. Eider, He's fallen off and 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: received some head injuries. He was treated on scene by 21 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 1: paramedics and he's refused treatment author transport, I should say 22 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: through to hospital. It looks like he might have made 23 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: his own way there. So yeah, look at a number 24 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: of incidents going to these scooters. Again, if if you're 25 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: not wearing a helmet, if you are intoxicated, they're a recipute. 26 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: That it after Yeah, it seems that way, and you know, 27 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 2: I guess we've had a bit of discussion on the 28 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: show with the with the Lord Mayor and others about 29 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 2: whether we need to be looking at at there being 30 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: times of the day where the scooters sort of aren't 31 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: able to be used if people are sort of getting 32 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: behind the I don't even know whether you call it 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: the wheel or what you'd call it, but when they're 34 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: intoxicated or you know, if they're not wearing helmets as well. 35 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: Yea, it's a difficult one obviously. You know, I've been 36 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: on the scourgy for I thin they're a brilliant way 37 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: to scoot around and see the city and obviously are 38 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. But you know, only if you 39 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: are taking the appropriate safety steps, so you've got your 40 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: helmet on. You know, you're writing to conditions and you're 41 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: not writing if you are intoxicated because obviously they have 42 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: the potential to be dangerous if you do fall off 43 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: onto her card services. So yeah, it's a difficult one. 44 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what the you know, what the solution 45 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: is there. I think christ education would encourage education and 46 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: encourage caution from everyone. When you're out about. 47 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: Andrew, just on the incident at the Darwin Waterfront with 48 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: the fifty two year old female, you said that she 49 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: was in quite a serious condition. Any idea her status 50 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: at the moment. 51 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: Olif, I couldn't comment at the moment. We don't have 52 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: those details with us at the moment, but yeah, she 53 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: was transported in a serious condition and obviously our thoughts 54 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: are with her and her family at the moment. 55 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: Absolutely hopefully they both make a very speedy recovery. On Saturday, 56 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 2: I know, on Vandaland Drive in Malac, a car ran 57 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 2: into a tree. What happened here, Yeah, at. 58 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: About eleven pm. Obviously a car hit a tree as 59 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: you spoken, and it actually rolled three times as a 60 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: result of that collision. So this is quite a serious 61 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: incident and two patients were transported to row Down Hospital. 62 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 1: We suspected or spinal injuries, but thankfully they were transported 63 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: in a stable condition, So yeah, quite a nasty incident there. 64 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: And then on Sunday in the IRVO yesterday IVO four 65 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 2: forty five Totem Road and Bagott Road, blood Miller, a 66 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: full vehicle motor vehicle crash. 67 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a y four vehicle NBA we call it. Thankfully, 68 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: despite there being four vehicles involved, everyone on seeing escape 69 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: major injury or an even minor injury. And they are 70 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: all non serious injuries. And I didn't require any further 71 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: treatment or transport to hospital, which is lucky considering what 72 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: was involved there. But seventym that night on bag At 73 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: Road Road, Blood Miller, a fifteen year old male was 74 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: struck by a vehicle. This is one of those ones 75 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: that's always really scary. Yeah, from any time anyone struck 76 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: by a vehicle, especially a fifteen year old voice, So 77 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: that could have been really naster to Thankfully, he's just 78 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: got away with an ankle injury. So yeah, another everyone, 79 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: and thankfully he looks like he'll be he'll make a 80 00:03:59,000 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: pretty speedy recover. 81 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is so lucky. Any idea what sort of 82 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: what had happened or what had transpired, you know, to 83 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 2: sort of see that situation unfold. 84 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I don't have all the details in front 85 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: of us, so I'm not exactly sure what went on, 86 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: but you know, I could only speculate, but obviously we 87 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: just encourage everyone to be really cautious. Look out, you know, 88 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: if you're a road lood, use of sorry, lookout for 89 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: anyone who may be on the road or around the road. 90 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: You know, kids sometimes do unpredictable things, so you might 91 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: one minute think they're doing the right thing, next minute 92 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: they're crossing the road out of nowhere. But that's you know, 93 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: I think the message we can take from that is 94 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: just to be very cautious or road uses, especially around 95 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: children and school at the moment as well, and by 96 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: the sounds of it, so incredibly lucky that he had 97 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: that suspected ankle injury and it wasn't much worse.
