🚨 The term “jaywalker” was invented in the 1920s by the US motor industry. “Jay” aka bumpkin/idiot was a derogatory term, “jaywalker” deliberately crafted to stigmatise people walking in the street, part of a wider campaign to shift blame for rising #RoadDeaths away from cars/drivers to pedestrians🚨

The deadly Princes Highway south of Nowra. One lane each way that carries all the cars and all the freight. No rail. Lots of roads run off it at right angles with no turning lanes. Deaths are regular. They’ll lower the speed limit but not fix it. #roaddeaths www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

This city hasn’t had a road death since 2017 – can Australia follow suit?
