I guess the difference is, Ross, that the Bunbury Highway will be used a hell of a lot more than any point above shark bay.
40,000 cars per day, was it? You can't really argue with that..
I agree though, 100ks is not that much; nothing really to be worked into a tizzy about. But there is a high volume of traffic that goes through there so I can see where they're coming from.
you'll get those Shark bay truckies that say "I hall two trailers worth of stuff for 500ks without thinking about my petrol light.. how can you whinge about no petrol station for 100 ks?" but the point is that it's a different situation. A run to Bunno now is pretty much in that no-man's land thought of 'well it's really not that far now, there's bound to be a station soon.. they'll have one, right?" The average person might just not think about it and the next thing you know they're on the side of the road calling the RAC/friends.
...And morons be them
