Cr Johnston asks "why is taking action in response to a koala's death more important than a person's death to you?" in relation to a speed limit being dropped very quickly in response to a koala's death, but not on Venner Road in Annerley where Dr Jeff Copeland died as a pedestrian.

Cr Wines responds explaining that people need to know how the Speed Limit Review process works. There's a 3-page summary that he says is available to any member of the public from the Council website.

"Motor vehicles can, umm, when used incorrectly, lead to loss of life" says Cr Wines, after much waffling.
