The Labor Party are so good at talking about what they would do, whilst they're in opposition, but they're so hopeless at delivering when they're in government. I understand how important road issues are. We understand absolutely how vitally important it is to reduce the road toll, and we have been successful in reducing the road toll. We need to reduce it by more. We are not meeting our targets, but we are reducing the road toll. We reduce the road toll by building better roads. That's why, from Warren Truss forward, we've invested huge amounts in upgrading—the duplication of the Pacific Motorway, something that was instigated after a tragic bus accident near, I think, Maxwell.

I don't know why you would interrupt that.
